- Advocate and advance modern, agile software development practices
- Develop and evangelize great engineering and organizational practices
- Setup and maintain continuous integration for all supported deliverables
- Define and monitor quality metrics
- Develop a team with a culture of high quality and performance
- Work from home with international travel twice per year for up to two weeks

**Who you are**:

- You have a strong software engineering, Linux, and open source background
- Your technical knowledge includes C/C++, Python programming and Shell scripting
- You have experience with data science to support data-driven quality strategies
- You have experience with quality processes and continuous integration tools and principles
- You have engineering management experience and enjoy growing people
