Release Engineer

Responsibilities

• Our IDEs are built on a massive scale: a 14 GB monorepo with more than 500 developers committing code every day and hundreds of thousands of automated tests running to keep everything stable. Delivering regular, reliable updates across this ecosystem without blocking engineering teams is a massive infrastructure…
• That’s where you come in. You’ll join our infrastructure team as both a technical specialist and process owner for our release infrastructure, building reliable systems that make it possible to ship releases smoothly. You’ll take ownership of the CI/CD pipelines, optimize delivery workflows, and make sure changes flow…
• Day to day, you will
• Design, configure, and maintain CI/CD pipelines to keep releases reliable and repeatable.
• Manage branching strategies, coordinate code freezes, and handle hotfix releases.
• Diagnose pipeline failures and resolve build bottlenecks before they affect delivery.
• Automate repetitive release tasks and improve YouTrack workflows for better issue tracking.
• Gather requirements from development teams to turn pain points into smooth tooling improvements.
• Communicate process changes to stakeholders and support teams through transitions.
• Lead retrospectives after incidents to continuously refine our release process.
