DESCRIPTION
Developer Experience organization owns the entire path from commit to satellite. This is a unique opportunity to offer this scope to platform engineers. We will build a self-service platform as the intelligence layer, to empower engineers with real-time root cause attribution, triaging and troubleshooting issues across code, tests, test beds and production environment, conversational analytics agents, automated narrative generation and potential bugs discovery capabilities.
We are looking for a Senior engineer with experience in supporting mission-critical applications, who are excited about building agentic solutions that enhance automation, stability, and release processes across multiple systems.
You will be the technical anchor for how the system will be built from ground up. You bring strong depth in distributed systems, knowledge representation, and AI/ML engineering, combined with the people leadership skills to hire, develop, and retain high-performing engineers in a fast-moving, ambiguous domain.
Export Control Requirement:
Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.
Key job responsibilities
Our team vision is to build self-service platform that empower developers to ship the high-quality software to space and ground at the speed of code, reliably, rapidly and at scale.
A successful engineer in this role is :
- Highly analytical: You solve problems in ways that can be backed up with verifiable data. You focus on driving processes, tools, and statistical methods which support rational decision-making.
- Team obsessed: You help grow your team members to achieve results. You foster the creative atmosphere to let engineers innovate, while holding them accountable for making smart decisions and delivering results.
- You’re ambitious, yet humble: You recognize that there’s always opportunity for improvement and use introspection and feedback from teammates and peers to raise the bar for your team.
- Engaged by ambiguity: You're able to explore new problem spaces with unique constraints and thus non-obvious solutions; you’re quick to identify any gaps in the team and the right person to fill them to best deliver value to customers.
A day in the life
You will work with Sr. Engineer, Principal Engineer and Sr. Principal Engineer side by side. You will have opportunity to collaborate with partner teams to understand the business use case. The room for invent and simplify and think big is large.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

- 5+ years of programming with at least one software programming language experience
- 5+ years of leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
