What You’ll Do
Set the multi-year roadmap for how PagerDuty builds, tests and deploys software.

Bring CI-quality checks into the developer and agent loop, so problems are caught in minutes, before code ever reaches a merge gate.
Give engineers and AI agents short-lived, isolated environments to test changes safely.
Rework code review so people spend their time on changes that carry real risk, with automated checks covering the rest, including verifying that AI-written tests actually test something.
Take our next CI/CD platform from selection to full adoption across Engineering.

Keep the cost of CI and AI tooling predictable as usage grows.
Hire, coach and grow senior engineers.
Share what we learn through talks, blog posts and the wider engineering community.

Preferred Qualifications
Experience running Argo CD, Buildkite or CircleCI at scale.
