Senior Software Engineer - Developer Experience

The role

Own and rebuild the path from code commit to production across .NET, Python and Svelte, starting with GitLab CI and Octopus Deploy. Build internal tools, a developer platform and delivery metrics so that engineers at Filevine can ship faster.

What you will do

• Own and re-architect the path from commit to production, end to end, across three language ecosystems.
• Build internal tooling that engineers adopt because it is better, not because it is mandated.
• Build self-service environments, paved paths and shared infrastructure where it pays for itself.
• Build purpose-built solutions for a single team's specific problem where needed.
• Expand delivery metrics and use them to drive decisions and report progress.
• Improve local development setup and onboarding, and bring AI-assisted development into the workflow deliberately.

Required qualifications

• Deep hands-on CI/CD ownership: has designed and rebuilt pipelines, not just consumed them.
• Real software engineering ability: writes code peers respect.
• Product sense for internal tools and ability to change how engineers work without formal authority.
• Range across more than one language ecosystem at once, including several dependency caches, test runners and one release process.
• Fluency in how software delivery is measured, including instrumenting and reading metrics honestly.
• Infrastructure-as-code and containerization in practice.

Nice to have

• GitLab CI at scale (runner fleets, caching strategies, reusable templates) or Octopus Deploy.
• Build systems for .NET/MSBuild, Python packaging or modern JavaScript build tooling.
• Experience with monorepo tooling, pipeline observability or security/compliance automation.
• Prior background working as a product/feature software engineer.

Benefits

• Medical, dental and vision insurance (for full-time employees).
• Maternity and paternity leave (for full-time employees).
• Short and long-term disability.
• Paid time off policy.
• Comprehensive benefits package.
• Competitive and fair pay.
• Opportunity to learn from a dedicated leadership team.
• Top-of-the-line company swag.
