Job description

We’re in an unbelievably exciting area of tech and are fundamentally reshaping the data storage industry. Here, you lead with innovative thinking, grow along with us, and join the smartest team in the industry.

This type of work—work that changes the world—is what the tech industry was founded on. So, if you're ready to seize the endless opportunities and leave your mark, come join us.

THE ROLE

Everpure is looking for a hands-on technical leader to lead our Build and Release Infrastructure team within Production Engineering. This team owns critical large-scale build infrastructure, Linux-based software packaging solutions, and release-enabling systems used across our product development organization. In this role, you will drive technical direction, raise engineering execution, and work closely with product, infrastructure, and release teams to improve build performance, reliability, and developer productivity.

This is a strong fit for someone who enjoys leading from the front — setting direction, unblocking execution, and contributing directly to architecture, design, and implementation.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Leading the technical direction for build systems, Purity OS packaging, and release infrastructure
Driving architecture and implementation for scalable, reliable build and packaging workflows
Owning improvements in CI/CD, artifact publishing, reproducibility, and build observability
Partnering with product, release, test, and infrastructure teams to deliver cross-functional outcomes
Removing bottlenecks in build throughput, packaging correctness, and release readiness
Leading OS packaging initiatives, including package creation, dependency management, validation, and release integration
Mentoring engineers and raising the bar on design, debugging, automation, and execution
Contributing directly in code for critical design, debugging, and high-impact technical work

WHAT YOU BRING

5+ years experience using C, C++, Python, Go, Java or related programming languages
Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience building engineering infrastructure
Deep experience with modern build, CI, and developer workflow systems
Strong Linux systems and software packaging knowledge
Strong Shell and Python skills for automation and debugging
Experience optimizing build performance and debugging complex build or packaging issues
Experience leading technical projects across multiple teams
Ability to mentor engineers, drive execution, and raise the technical bar
Strong communication skills and a clear sense of ownership
BS in Computer Science or a related technical field; advanced degree is a plus

WHAT IS AN ADDED BONUS

OS image creation, package repositories, release packaging, or upgrade infrastructure
Compilers, linkers, loaders, toolchains, and low-level systems workflows
Distributed build systems, remote execution, caching, or artifact management systems
Reproducible builds, supply chain integrity, signing, provenance, or release validation workflows
Large-scale debugging systems and observability for CI/CD infrastructure
Java build ecosystems such as Maven or Gradle
Systems software domains such as operating systems, distributed systems, containers, virtualization, database internals, or compiler optimization
