About The Position

We're looking for a Software Engineer (Infrastructure/Developer Tooling) who loves building the tools that make other engineers more effective. You'll be a key contributor to Homebase's platform infrastructure team—writing the internal tooling, automation, and services that power how our engineering organization builds and ships software every day. This is a role for someone who thinks of internal engineers as customers, cares deeply about developer experience, and brings strong software fundamentals to the infrastructure space.

Requirements

3+ years of experience in Software Development or Infrastructure Engineering—your roots are in writing software, and your infra experience grows from there
Strong development background in Ruby or Golang—you're comfortable writing production-quality code and building internal services in at least one of these languages
Hands-on experience building internal platforms or tooling that other systems rely on—you've treated it like a product, using data and feedback to drive what you build next
Genuine interest in developer experience: you think about the internal engineer as a customer and are energized by reducing friction for your teammates
Some hands-on experience with AWS or cloud infrastructure in production—you don't need to be an infrastructure expert, but you understand core concepts and can navigate cloud environments with confidence
Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform preferred) and containerized application deployment
Experience with CI/CD systems and an understanding of how software delivery pipelines work
Ability to use observability tools to identify, debug, and resolve issues in production
Ability to work across team boundaries with platform, security, and product teams—keeping the right people informed and your work rarely landing as a surprise
Strong sense of ownership—you deliver on commitments, monitor what you ship, and follow through on risks to timely delivery
Growth mindset: you integrate feedback, support teammates' development, and communicate effectively

Responsibilities

Build, maintain, and improve internal developer tools that streamline engineering workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and deployments
Own the implementation of well-scoped features end-to-end—from writing the code to monitoring it in production
Identify and address friction points in the developer experience, using data and metrics to prioritize improvements
Contribute to the reliability and scalability of our AWS-based infrastructure within defined domains
Write clean, testable, maintainable code that upholds and advances Homebase engineering standards
Collaborate cross-functionally with platform, security, and product teams to understand requirements and make sure your work fits the broader picture
Actively participate in on-call rotations, helping identify and resolve infrastructure issues
Collaborate with teammates and begin influencing engineering decisions on your team
Use AI tools to drive personal effectiveness and improve your workflows
