We're looking for a hands-on engineering leader to build and own the Release Engineering, SecDevOps, and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) functions for Infinia. This is a foundational role: you'll define how our software is built, secured, released, and kept running at enterprise scale.   If you thrive at the intersection of infrastructure automation, operational excellence, and team building — and you want your work to directly shape the reliability and velocity of a market-leading storage platform — this is your role. WHAT YOU'LL DO RELEASE ENGINEERING - Own the end-to-end release pipeline — build systems, artifact management, versioning, and release gating - Drive automation of build, test, and packaging workflows to maximize developer velocity - Define release cadence, branching strategies, and code freeze processes with engineering leadership DEVOPS AND SECDEVOPS - Architect and operate scalable CI/CD pipelines and developer toolchains for on-prem and cloud - Embed security into the SDLC — SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, secrets management - Champion automation-first DevOps practices from commit to production delivery SITE RELIABILITY ENGINEERING - Define SLOs, SLIs, and error budgets; own incident response and post-mortem culture - Drive observability — logging, metrics, distributed tracing — across the platform - Influence reliability and operability early, at design and code-review stages - Lead capacity planning and infrastructure scaling decisions LEADERSHIP - Build, mentor, and grow teams across all three disciplines in a global, distributed org - Communicate roadmap and risks to senior leadership; partner cross-functionally with product, QA, and security WHAT YOU BRING - 12+ years in DevOps, Release Engineering, or SRE — with 5+ years managing engineering teams - Deep experience with CI/CD platforms (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, Tekton, or similar) - Infrastructure-as-code fluency: Terraform, Ansible, Pulumi, or equivalent - Container orchestration expertise: Kubernetes and Docker in production - Practical DevSecOps background — you've shipped security tooling, not just talked about it - SRE chops: SLO/SLI design, on-call frameworks, observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry) - Strong communicator — you can translate complex technical tradeoffs for exec and non-technical audiences BONUS POINTS - Experience with storage, distributed systems, or infrastructure software - Familiarity with HPC, AI/ML infrastructure, or enterprise data platforms - Background scaling DevOps in high-growth, globally distributed environments - Exposure to SOC 2, ISO 27001, or FedRAMP compliance requirements WHY DDN - Work on infrastructure that underpins some of the world's most demanding AI and research workloads - Greenfield opportunity to shape Release Engineering, DevOps, and SRE from the ground up for Infinia - Collaborative, engineering-first culture that values autonomy, technical depth, and continuous learning - Competitive compensation, remote-first flexibility, and a team that genuinely enjoys solving hard problems
