Senior Staff Software Developer (Developer Infrastructure)

Join Robinhood as a Senior Staff Software Developer, where you will be the technical driver of the Developer Infrastructure organization. You will own the technical direction and roadmap for the Developer Infrastructure org, lead and evolve Robinhood's Bazel-based monorepo build infrastructure, scale CI/CD pipelines, drive the vision for TestX, champion the integration of AI and agentic systems, set technical standards across Backend Platform and Mobile Platform, and partner with engineering leadership and cross-functional stakeholders. This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of software development at Robinhood and beyond.

- Exceptional technical leadership, communication, and influence skills — you've unified cross-functional engineering teams around a shared vision and driven ambiguous, org-spanning initiatives to completion
- Track record of mentoring senior engineers and elevating the technical bar across large, diverse engineering organizations
- Strong background with distributed systems, Kubernetes, and cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) — you understand the full stack of developer tooling from IDE to deployment
- Genuine interest in or hands-on experience with agentic AI systems, automated code review, or AI-driven developer velocity programs — you have a clear point of view on how AI will reshape the software development lifecycle and want to be the one building it
- 10+ years of software engineering experience with a demonstrated track record at the Senior Staff, Principal, or Distinguished Engineer level — you've set technical direction at the org or company level, not just the team level
- Experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines at massive scale — across thousands of daily builds, multiple programming languages, and complex pre-merge pipeline logic
- Deep expertise with Bazel and large-scale monorepo build systems — you've owned remote build execution infrastructure at scale and understand the architectural tradeoffs deeply
- Experience with test infrastructure, integration test environments, or developer environment platforms — you understand what a great test experience looks like at scale
- Fluency in Go and/or Python; broad familiarity with TypeScript, Swift, or Android development environments is a strong signal
