About the Software Factory Team:
The Software Factory team is pivotal in creating a seamless developer build experience, essential for developing, testing, and deploying software that aligns with Latitude’s mission. Team members are responsible for the development and maintenance of an end-to-end infrastructure pipeline within a distributed build environment, playing a crucial role in integrating new tools and technologies into a robust, deterministic, and scalable build ecosystem. We utilize and maintain build tooling (Bazel), author build and test tools (Starlark, Python), manage build environments (Docker, containers), and leverage a distributed remote execution and caching system (Buildfarm), while hosting CI/CD resources for developers to test and implement changes (Jenkins).
Your Responsibilities:
- Collaborate with seasoned build engineers boasting decades of experience.
- Design and implement solutions for the long-term maintenance of software releases.
- Develop integrations with product teams that enhance the reusability and testability of modular autonomy systems.
- Measure, inspect, and improve the utilization of the build infrastructure.
