We are looking for a Senior OR Staff Developer Experience Engineer to help shape how Horizon3 engineers build, test, release, and operate software.

The Developer Experience team owns the foundations connecting local development to production delivery: developer tooling, CI/CD, build systems, container base images, artifact promotion, release gates, and approved agentic-development workflows. You will define technical direction, lead complex initiatives across engineering, and build reusable paths that improve delivery speed, quality, security, and confidence.

This is a hands-on technical leadership role for an engineer who enjoys solving ambiguous problems, influencing across teams, and making the software lifecycle easier to use and operate.

Developer Platform Strategy, Delivery & Operations

Define the architecture and roadmap for local development, repository tooling, CI/CD, build systems, and release workflows.

Lead high-impact initiatives across engineering that reduce manual coordination and standardize the path from code change to production.

Build reusable GitLab CI/CD templates, runner capabilities, developer workflows, test gates, artifact promotion, release manifests, and rollback paths.

Establish sustainable practices for shared container images, build performance, reproducibility, scanning, signing, provenance, and supply-chain security.

Improve developer workflow and delivery observability through useful measures of setup time, pipeline health, release performance, and adoption.

Partner with Platform, Security, QA, and feature teams to make delivery foundations reliable, secure, and easy to consume.

Technical Leadership & Enablement

Establish standards and paved paths for developer workflows, build and release engineering, and approved AI-assisted development.
