About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Design, build, and operate the CI/CD systems, release orchestration, and testing infrastructure that every Zapier engineer depends on.
- Define and evolve the golden paths for how code gets built, tested, and shipped at Zapier.
- Own end-to-end delivery of complex initiatives, from design doc through rollout and impact measurement.
- Build internal tooling and APIs that make Zapier engineers more effective and reduce time from merge to production.
- Debug complex production issues across pipelines and release systems, participate in incident response, and drive systemic improvements.
- Lead technical design discussions and write clear documentation that influences decisions across teams.
- Mentor engineers on the team and raise the technical bar through code reviews, design feedback, and knowledge sharing.
- Partner with the cloud/infra SRE team on the boundary between platform foundation and the delivery layer on top of it.
Requirements
What you’ll need- You have real depth in CI/CD systems, testing strategy, and release orchestration — not just as a user, but as someone who has built or meaningfully improved these systems.
- You have hands-on experience with platform tools such as GitLab CI, Kubernetes, Docker, ArgoCD, Terraform, or similar. You don't just use these tools — you build and improve the systems around them.
- You take loosely defined problems and drive them to production, writing design docs, defining success criteria, and following through on rollout and measurement without being told to.
- You think in systems, not components, and design solutions with downstream users, second-order effects, and long-term maintainability in mind.
- You have strong backend or fullstack engineering fundamentals and have built and operated production APIs and services at scale (TypeScript, Node.js, Python, or equivalent).
- You are comfortable making pragmatic technical decisions under uncertainty and can articulate your reasoning clearly.
- You use AI tools actively in your engineering workflow and think critically about where they add value versus where you need to validate outputs carefully.
- You collaborate effectively across teams in an async-first environment, aligning stakeholders and communicating tradeoffs without losing momentum.
- You raise the bar around you through code review, design feedback, and contributing to team practices and standards.
