Senior Developer - Delivery Engineering

7d•CA$128,000 - CA$200,000•Remote

About The Position

The Delivery Engineering team is a small, senior team responsible for building and running the pipelines that deploy code from the codebase to production for multiple teams working in a shared codebase. They focus on the orchestration of code extraction, building, shipping, and safe deployment, ensuring quality checks are performed. The team has significantly improved deployment processes, increasing throughput and reliability. The role involves extending the supported delivery window by working from the Eastern time zone or further east, supporting teams with an earlier start. Responsibilities include maintaining delivery health, undertaking project work to remove manual steps, optimize throughput, and enhance system speed and reliability. The role requires comfort with ambiguity due to a roadmap that flexes with the needs of other teams. The ideal candidate enjoys small teams, high leverage, and improving the work of others.

Requirements

Solid experience as a senior DevOps, delivery, or platform engineer, with strong command of Git and GitHub Actions (or an equivalent CI/CD system such as CircleCI, Blacksmith, or Depot).
A good working understanding of DevOps principles and CI/CD pipeline design. The core concepts should be second nature.
Comfort with YAML and some Bash scripting, plus familiarity with Docker and containerization, since everything we run is containerized.
Experience with observability tooling such as Datadog to understand what's happening inside pipelines.
Fluency with AI coding tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor), able to direct agents to do the heavy lifting while you stay focused on design and correctness.
Experience in a monolith or large shared codebase at a company of meaningful scale, where one team's change or flaky test can affect another. Understanding of those pains and how to navigate them.
Strong communication and a genuine, collaborative approach.
Located in the Eastern time zone or further east, with Canada strongly preferred and Atlantic or the UK also a good fit, and comfortable with an earlier-than-standard start to support an extended delivery window.

Nice To Haves

Ruby experience is a nice-to-have (some of our tooling, including our deployment tool, is built in Ruby), but not required.
Experience scaling delivery at a high-growth company is a strong asset.

Responsibilities

Take extreme ownership of delivery for the many teams that depend on our pipelines, keeping code flowing to production reliably and unblocking teams quickly when issues arise.
Extend our supported delivery window by working from the Eastern time zone or further east, giving more teams more opportunity to deploy safely across more of the day.
Drive throughput up by removing manual steps from the pipeline, tuning and optimizing our orchestration, and helping us stay ahead of fast-growing deployment demand.
Lead thoughtful change management, recognizing that a change to how delivery works changes how every team ships, and preparing people for that change rather than just shipping it.
Enable other engineers to deliver better over time through clear communication, guidance, and strong design. People will come to you with questions, and you'll leave them more capable.
Use AI as a core part of how you work, leaning on agentic coding tools to research, design, and generate the deterministic pipeline code we need, so your time goes to thinking and design rather than hand-writing every line.
