Job description

A U.S.-based company that is building an innovative API (Application Programming Interface) creation and collaboration platform that makes the process of designing, testing, and documenting APIs simpler, is looking for a Release Support Engineer. The engineer will be in charge of creating and deploying innovative tools and scalable frameworks to improve the coding efficiency of hundreds of engineers and to expedite the organization's release process. The company offers tools that help developers to expedite the complete API development lifecycle in addition to other features that facilitate seamless teamwork.

  • Manage requests from various squads and communications with the bigger organization (therefore TPM expertise)
  • Ability to handle some straightforward development tasks, including branch merges in a sizable git repository, building the app locally (using NodeJS and JavaScript), and using/debugging our automation in Circle CI (therefore engineer/developer competence)
  • Maintain the team's internal release dashboards that was built for release and rollout
  • Organize the use of and/or creation of scalable infrastructure to enhance the caliber of products and the efficiency of engineering
  • Actively mentor junior developers through thorough code reviews, paired programming, and technical advice on overall architecture and design

  • Comprehensive experience in CI/CD and Agile development, employing tools like Git, CircleCI, New Relic, AWS, etc.
