Everlaw is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to build, optimize, and harden the release pipelines and APIs powering their transition to an agent-ready deployment platform. This is a hands-on, execution-heavy role focused on enabling both humans and AI agents to safely and consistently deploy infrastructure and application code.
Key responsibilities include:
• Optimize Gradle/Bazel configurations and Java build graphs to improve cache hit rates, parallelism, and resource utilization across the monorepo.
• Identify and eliminate flaky tests and unstable infrastructure in CI pipelines to ensure reliable build signals.
• Build automations that generate FedRAMP and other audit artifacts from pipelines, reducing manual work while improving compliance posture.
• Shift logs and build outputs toward structured, traceable formats and implement idempotent APIs to enable safe orchestration by future automation.
• Use Terraform and Helm to define and evolve infrastructure powering builds and deployments, managing configuration drift, health, and scaling.
• Drive complex release engineering projects end-to-end—scoping, design, execution, rollout, and post-launch improvements—while mentoring peers.
Required qualifications:
• 5+ years of software engineering experience focused on Release, DevOps, or Platform Engineering in cloud-based systems.
• Strong proficiency in Java or similar statically-typed language; comfortable scripting in Python and/or Bash.
• Deep hands-on experience with build tools (Gradle, Bazel, Maven) at scale in large codebases.
• Experience managing cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) using Terraform or similar IaC tools; modern CI/CD platform operations.
• Strong fundamentals in data structures, algorithms, system design, and distributed systems with a track record of automating operational toil.
• Must be authorized to work in the United States; visa sponsorship not available.
Bonus experience: Open Policy Agent (OPA), regulated environments (FedRAMP, HIPAA, SOC 2), AI coding assistants, Bazel/multi-language monorepos, open-source contributions in CI/CD/release/IaC tooling.
The role is full-time, exempt, based in Oakland with hybrid schedule: in-office Monday/Wednesday/Thursday, remote Tuesday/Friday.
