Senior/Staff Software Engineer - SRE, GitHub & CI/CD Infrastructure

The role

You will own source control at Zoox as the technical lead for the Git-based monorepo that engineers use every day. You will set direction, plan and run a restructuring of source code management, and build tooling that reduces toil and improves developer workflows.

What you will do

• Own the technical strategy and roadmap for source control at Zoox.
• Plan and execute a strategic effort to scale source code management: scoping, design, implementation, cutover and validation, with security, platform and engineering teams.
• Build and operate monorepo scalability improvements across repo structure, branch strategy, code ownership, large-file handling and CI integration, including scripts, hooks and automation.
• Develop guardrails and developer-facing tooling that reduce toil, measured by build times, merge friction and interrupt volume.
• Set the technical bar through code reviews, design proposals and pairing, and serve as the hands-on authority for source control decisions across Zoox engineering.

Required qualifications

• 5+ years operating GitHub Enterprise (or equivalent) at scale.
• Hands-on experience scaling a large monorepo for an org of several hundred or more engineers.
• Strong CI/CD integration background (Buildkite, GitHub Actions, Jenkins or GitLab CI) across code review workflows, build triggers, branch policies and merge automation.
• Experience with infrastructure as code (Terraform, Pulumi or equivalent).
• Experience with major cloud platforms and executing platform migrations against active codebases.
• Strong technical leadership and written communication; able to drive alignment across infrastructure, security and product engineering.

Nice to have

• Familiarity with monorepo build tooling (Bazel, Buck or similar).
• Familiarity with supply-chain hardening practices (signed commits, dependency governance, secret scanning).
• Experience with code review tooling layered on top of GitHub (Reviewable, Gerrit or similar).

Before you apply

• You do not need to match every listed expectation to apply.
