Job Description

We’re building a next-generation platform serving thousands of restaurants and diners—and our build pipelines must scale to match that growth. We’re hiring a Senior or Staff Build Engineer to own and evolve CI/CD across backend, frontend, and mobile systems. Hands-on iOS build pipeline expertise is required. You’ll ensure engineers can ship confidently to production and app stores—quickly, reliably, and with minimal friction.

How You’ll Make an Impact

  • Own and scale build automation — design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines, runners, signing agents, and artifact storage to support fast, reliable releases across platforms.

  • Lead mobile pipelines, especially iOS — automate versioning, provisioning, code signing, TestFlight distribution, and App Store submissions via Fastlane or native tooling.

  • Embed quality and traceability — integrate testing, linting, coverage metrics, and dashboards to ensure reliability and visibility.

  • Apply an SRE mindset — track SLIs, monitor pipeline latency, automate alerts, and resolve failures rapidly.

  • Automate for speed and resilience — enable caching, parallelization, Terraform-based environments, and instant rollback workflows.

  • Mentor and collaborate — coach developers on reliable build configs, signing practices, and branching models.

  • Drive innovation — evaluate next-gen CI/CD tools and infrastructure for scalability and cross-platform parity.

Minimum Requirements

  • 5+ years in Build, CI/CD, or Release Engineering, with production-grade automation ownership.

  • Proven, hands-on experience managing iOS pipelines (Fastlane, Xcode Cloud, TestFlight/App Store delivery).

  • Android CI/CD experience (Gradle, keystore management, Play Store delivery).

  • Expertise with tools like GitHub Actions, Buildkite, Jenkins, CircleCI, or Bitrise.

  • Strong scripting and automation skills (Python, Bash, Ruby, or Fastlane config).

  • Familiarity with Terraform/CloudFormation, Docker, and runner provisioning.

  • Ability to debug complex build issues across environments.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication.

Bonus Points

  • Experience supporting large-scale mobile releases (App Store & Play Store).

  • Familiarity with GitOps or mobile CI platforms (App Center, Bitrise, Codemagic).

  • Cross-platform app experience (React Native, Flutter).

  • Operated self-hosted macOS build farms.

  • Background in regulated environments (PCI-DSS, SOC 2).
