Remote Build and Release Engineer

Shape the Future of DevOps—From Anywhere 🌍

Are you ready to take charge of your future and bring engineering excellence to life? We’re seeking a driven and innovative Remote Build and Release Engineer who thrives in a fast-paced environment. This role is for you if you're passionate about automating deployments, orchestrating CI/CD systems, and helping cross-functional teams ship with speed and stability.

This is your chance to join a dynamic, growing organization where your impact won't be buried in the background. Instead, you’ll be instrumental in powering modern software delivery pipelines that support global users. And the best part? You'll do it all remotely, with a team that believes in agility, autonomy, and bold innovation.

🚀 Key Responsibilities

Drive Reliable Software Releases

  • Develop, maintain, and improve build automation systems for production and staging environments.
  • Monitor and manage version control integrations, ensuring smooth code merges and deployments.
  • Work closely with software developers to streamline packaging, delivery, and configuration processes.

Optimize CI/CD Pipelines

  • Enhance automated pipelines with efficient scripting and infrastructure-as-code principles.
  • Implement robust testing and validation checks within CI environments to prevent regressions.
  • Reduce build and deployment times while maintaining release integrity.

Collaborate Across Teams

  • Partner with DevOps engineers, QA, and development teams to coordinate feature rollouts.
  • Provide critical feedback on deployment processes to promote continuous improvement.
  • Maintain comprehensive release documentation, ensuring traceability and audit-readiness.

Ensure Platform Stability

  • Detect, debug, and resolve build and deployment issues quickly and effectively.
  • Conduct root cause analyses for failed builds or flawed deployments.
  • Proactively monitor system health and take preemptive steps to mitigate release risks.

💼 Your Work Environment

This fully remote position enables you to contribute from anywhere worldwide while working alongside a distributed team of high-performing engineers. You’ll enjoy the flexibility of setting your workspace, whether it’s your home office, a quiet co-working hub, or a cabin in the mountains.

We foster a results-driven environment where autonomy is valued and communication is key. Expect to collaborate daily via virtual standups, asynchronous updates, and real-time chat. Agile development is our compass, and continuous improvement is our mantra.

  • Containers & Orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes (optional but a plus)
  • Artifact Repositories: JFrog Artifactory, Nexus
  • Cloud Infrastructure: AWS, GCP, Azure (depending on team)
  • Monitoring: Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack

We don’t expect mastery of every tool—we value the ability to learn and adapt quickly in a dynamic engineering landscape.

🎓 Qualifications That Make You a Great Fit

  • Proven experience in a build and release engineering or similar DevOps role.
  • Familiarity with continuous integration, configuration management, and infrastructure automation.
  • Strong knowledge of version control systems and best practices for code branching and merging.
  • Hands-on experience with scripting languages used for automation and deployment.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills with an analytical mindset.
  • Ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience working in an agile, remote-first environment.

Bonus points if you:

  • Have experience implementing security checks in the CI/CD lifecycle.
  • Understand the nuances of multi-environment deployment management.
  • I have worked on cross-platform projects and hybrid cloud systems.
