Staff Software Engineer, Build Stability at Gusto

This is a high-level role for a seasoned engineer with over 10 years of experience who is passionate about infrastructure and developer experience. The ideal candidate is a "systems thinker" who understands the intricacies of CI/CD ecosystems and has a proven track record of optimizing build pipelines for large engineering organizations. This position offers significant impact, as you'll be responsible for the productivity of hundreds of peers. The role features a strong focus on "AI-native" innovation, moving beyond traditional DevOps into intelligent automation. Compensation is highly competitive, with geographic tiers ranging up to $235k plus equity, and while remote work is supported, there is an option for hybrid office use in major hubs like SF, Denver, and NYC. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have deep expertise managing **Buildkite** or similar CI ecosystems at scale. * Are obsessed with eliminating "flaky tests" and reducing build latency. * Want to pioneer the use of AI and LLMs to automate developer workflows. * Enjoy building internal tools where your "customers" are your fellow engineers.
