Senior Staff Software Engineer (Developer Infrastructure)

Join Robinhood as a Senior Staff Software Engineer in the Developer Infrastructure organization. You will be the technical driver of the entire org, unifying four engineering teams under a shared technical vision. Your primary focus will be on DevX, owning the technical direction of Robinhood's build and developer infrastructure. You will also drive the integration of AI and agentic systems across the software development lifecycle. This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of software development at Robinhood and the industry as a whole.

• Own the technical direction and roadmap for the Developer Infrastructure org, serving as the Uber Tech Lead across DevX, TestX, Backend Platform, and Mobile Platform.
• Lead and evolve Robinhood's Bazel-based monorepo build infrastructure, driving language-agnostic build optimization and ensuring fast, stable feedback loops for the entire engineering org.
• Drive the vision for TestX, overseeing the test infrastructure and environments that power Robinhood's entire test experience, including integration test environments and personal development environments.

• 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
• 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
• Strong background with distributed systems, Kubernetes, and cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) — you understand the full stack of developer tooling from IDE to deployment
• 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
• Track record of mentoring senior engineers and elevating the technical bar across large, diverse engineering organizations
• Fluency in Go and/or Python; broad familiarity with TypeScript, Swift, or Android development environments is a strong signal
• Experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines at massive scale — across thousands of daily builds, multiple programming languages, and complex pre-merge pipeline logic
• 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
