The Operations and Infrastructure teams support the real-world deployment and iteration of PI’s robotics systems. They are responsible for the platforms, tooling, and cloud environments that enable engineers to build, test, and deploy reliably. This includes ownership of GitHub workflows, CI systems, and build tooling that sit directly on the critical path of development. In This Role You Will - CI/CD Ownership: Design and operate GitHub-based CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, checks, workflows) with a focus on reliability, speed, and signal quality. - Build Systems: Own and evolve Bazel-based build and test infrastructure that supports C++, Python, Rust, and Typescript-based development. - Infrastructure Engineering: Build and maintain Kubernetes-based services and cloud infrastructure using Terraform and infrastructure-as-code. - Automation & Self-Service: Replace manual release, provisioning, and access workflows with automated, GitHub-integrated systems. - Reliability & Throughput: Reduce flaky builds, failed deploys, and CI bottlenecks that slow engineering velocity. - Cross-Team Enablement: Partner with engineers across the stack to make builds, tests, and deploys predictable and fast.
