- **Experience:** Expert
- **Contract:** Permanent contract
- **Skills:** JavaScript (Programming Language), Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), Continuous Integration, Programming Tools, Github, TypeScript, Parallel Computation, Webpack
- **Published:** June 15, 2026
- **Apply:** https://arc.dev/remote-jobs/j/braintrust-software-engineer-developer-experience-oxa933ux9d

## About the Role

* 5+ years building developer tools, CI/CD, or platform infrastructure
 * A track record of taking slow, painful workflows and making them fast and pleasant
 * Deep GitHub expertise: Actions, Apps, APIs, merge queues, and branch protections
 * Strong fluency with JavaScript/TypeScript build and bundling tools (esbuild, swc, Vite, Turbopack, tsc, pnpm) and a clear sense of when to reach for which
 * Comfortable profiling and optimizing across the stack - flamegraphs, tracing, and just plain measurement
 * Supply chain security experience: SBOMs, Sigstore/cosign, SLSA, GitHub Actions hardening
 * Strong opinions on safe, reliable production deploys

## Description

We're looking for an Engineer who loves building tools for other engineers. You'll own the systems we touch every day - local dev, CI, and the deploy pipeline - and make shipping to production fast, safe, and reliable. The work compounds across every engineer at the company and is very important to our whole team

What You'll Do

 * Work directly with the engineering team to find friction and remove it - help them be nimble, happy and productive
 * Drive CI runtime down: parallelization, caching, sharding, test selection, and killing flakes
 * Own the deploy pipeline: progressive rollouts, fast rollbacks, and clear signals when something is wrong
 * Own the our build toolchain - bundlers, compilers, monorepo tooling - and keep cold builds and rebuilds fast as the codebase and archictecture grows
 * Harden our supply chain: SBOMs, signed artifacts, locked-down GitHub Actions, secret hygiene, and provenance for every build
 * Build CLIs, GitHub Apps, and bots that make the right thing the easy thing
