Crusoe Staff Software Engineer on Crusoe's Developer Experience team focused on building developer tools and infrastructure to accelerate engineering productivity. Responsible for improving developer experience across the SDLC.
Responsibilities
The Developer Experience (DevX) team is a high-impact group charged with fueling the future of Crusoe’s engineering muscle. We’re responsible for critical developer tools and infrastructure that are used by all of Crusoe engineering. We focus on accelerating development while ensuring we keep a high bar for quality.
This role holds a broad, mission-critical charter: to empower every Crusoe engineer to deliver positive change to customers quickly, safely, and efficiently. As a Staff Software Engineer you will need to work through ambiguity to justify investments to improve developer experience across the entire SDLC; tackling everything from local development, build optimization, code review/CI experience and AI tools.
What You’ll Be Working On
Engineering Acceleration: Partner with the broader organization to build paved paths that engineers love to use. Our paved paths are fast, reliable and broadly adopted across all of engineering.
Toil Elimination: Ruthlessly identify and automate away the friction and repetitive tasks that slow down the development process, keeping Crusoe engineers in a state of high productivity.
Library & Environment Creation: Develop the libraries, tools, and pre-production environments necessary for vetting service APIs and complex microservice interactions.
Ecosystem Integration: Unify internal tooling and vendor services to automate workflows, build operational efficiency, and optimize security across the development stack.
Lifecycle Innovation: Innovate across every stage of the development lifecycle, including source code management, build systems, code review, CI/CD pipelines, platform runtimes, and telemetry.
Culture of Quality: Lead efforts to establish a culture of continuous quality delivery that scales seamlessly as our engineering headcount and infrastructure grow.
System Optimization: Work diligently to build efficient systems and processes that serve as a force multiplier for the impact of every engineer around you.
What You’ll Bring to the Team
Experience: Previous experience leading the development of developer tools and/or infrastructure for engineering teams
Strategic Vision: Experience informing long-term company objectives through technical insight and developer-centric advocacy.
AI Platforms: Experience building AI agent platforms for engineering teams
Linux Internals: Hands-on experience with Linux image construction, package building.
Community Engagement: Active involvement in the open-source community or a track record of staying current with recent industry advancements in developer productivity.
Automation Mindset: A background in solving complex, multi-layered technical problems and then successfully automating the resulting solutions.
