By ensuring reliability, speed, and security across these pipelines, we empower Groq engineers to focus on innovation while delivering software with confidence and efficiency.

Responsibilities & Opportunities In This Role

• Accelerate build and release systems to reduce wait times, increase reliability, and integrate seamlessly with tools like GitHub, Buildkite, and Nix.
• Design and optimize CI/CD pipelines that deliver rapid, reliable feedback and enable frequent, high-quality releases across languages such as Haskell, C++, Rust, Go, and Python.
• Automate quality and security practices including linting, static analysis, dependency management, and secure delivery of software.
• Develop and support hardware-integrated test environments for Groq silicon, ensuring production-like reliability, scalability, and usability.
• Drive automation and self-service across the engineering lifecycle with modern infrastructure and tooling.
• Champion best practices and culture around speed, reliability, and continuous improvement in software delivery.

Ideal Candidates Have/are

• Strong background in software engineering with focus on infrastructure, build systems, and automation.
• Proven experience designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines, build systems, and other engineering infrastructure.
• Proficiency in Go and Python, with exposure to Haskell, C++, and Rust in large, fast-moving codebases.
• Hands-on expertise with GitHub, Buildkite, Nix, plus modern source control and dependency management practices.
• Experience collaborating across diverse teams (Compilers, Hardware, Cloud) to improve processes and accelerate delivery.
• Passion for developer productivity and testing, enabling teams to deliver high-quality software quickly and reliably.
• Experience with large monorepos is a strong asset, particularly in scaling tooling and workflows across diverse teams.
