ALittle About Us
We are a high-impact team within the CTO organization, dedicated to accelerating outcomes for internal development teams. We own the entire CI/CD and artifact ecosystem, leading the platform work, automation, governance, and long-term service ownership. Our mission is centered on critical platform modernization and moving to a product-first operating model that emphasizes clear "golden paths," measurable Developer Experience (DX) outcomes, and continuous evolution.
To achieve this, we champion a high-ownership culture with strong engineering fundamentals (reliability, observability, testing), drive an AI/agentic automation strategy to reduce toil at scale, and define governance in partnership with Security to ensure developer velocity.
We're hiring a Principal Developer Experience Engineer to lead the modernization of the CI/CD portion of our internal developer platform. The immediate focus is a high-scale migration: moving ~30,000 pipelines to Git Hub Actions, with a target of 100% migration by end of year and ensuring that all new repos/apps start on Git Hub Actions by default.
What you'll do Build and operate an agentic migration system to Git Hub Actions- Design an agentic AI automation that can translate and migrate pipelines to Git Hub Actions workflows
- Automate PR creation and iteration
- Build "safe at scale" operations: migration batching, progress tracking, exception queues, rollback strategies, and clear ownership boundaries.
- Establish evaluation/quality loops for the agent: regression tests, correctness checks, policy checks, and measurable success criteria (not just "it looks right").
- Define governance for Git Hub Actions at enterprise/org scale
- Build and maintain reusable workflows
- Establish best practices for Artifactory repository structure and operations
- Standardize how CI publishes and consumes artifacts with secure defaults and consistent metadata
- Maintain conventions that scale (including repository naming/constraints and guardrails)
- Define when to use Git Hub-hosted vs self-hosted runners and document the default paths
- Help design runner governance and access boundaries using runner groups (runner groups create a security boundary and control access)
- Partner with infra/security where ownership sits elsewhere, but be accountable for the end-to-end developer experience
- Enable app teams through office hours, migration support, design-partner engagements, and iterative improvements to reduce friction
- Treat CI/CD as a product: measure adoption, reliability, and developer satisfaction - and iterate based on data
- 100% of Screwdriver pipelines migrated to Git Hub Actions by end of year, with transparent burn-down tracking and a stable landing zone
- All new repos/apps start on Git Hub Actions using approved templates and reusable workflows
- Clearly defined governance for allowed actions/workflows, plus scalable guardrails and upgrade paths
- Consistent Artifactory usage for containers + npm (publish/consume patterns, permissions, retention), reducing break/fix and "tribal knowledge"
- Tangible DX improvements: faster time-to-green, fewer flaky failures, fewer support tickets, and predictable CI costs
- Practical experience building LLM/agentic AI systems where correctness, guardrails, and evaluation matter (not just ad-hoc prompting)
- Senior-level experience building production-quality systems, platform tooling, or internal developer platforms
- Deep CI/CD expertise: pipeline design, troubleshooting, reliability improvements,…
