Software Engineer - Infrastructure & Deployment (Mid-Senior)

About Revel
At Revel, we are revolutionizing the way the world's most critical hardware is controlled—across aerospace, automotive, energy, and manufacturing sectors. Our next-generation software stack combines an intuitive command/control interface, a specialized programming language tailored for hardware control, and a high-performance runtime environment. We empower engineers to build, test, and deploy critical systems rapidly, reliably, and safely.

Role Overview
We are seeking an experienced Software Engineer with a strong DevOps background and a passion for scalable, reproducible deployment systems tailored to edge compute and embedded environments. In this role, you will architect and maintain CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation, and deployment solutions for large fleets of remote and embedded devices serving customers across diverse industries. You'll collaborate closely with engineering teams to enable rapid, reliable software delivery across varied hardware platforms — while owning best practices in operational excellence, automation, and reproducibility.

Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain containerized CI/CD pipelines that support multi-architecture builds, integration testing, and deployments for edge and embedded systems.

• Administer and maintain the hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) build and test compute infrastructure used for validating software through CI testing.

• Manage and coordinate releases to edge targets using containerization tools such as Docker, Docker Compose, Kubernetes, Portainer, or similar.

• Develop and maintain cloud-based fleet management systems to coordinate updates and manage software lifecycles across edge compute devices.

• Contribute to infrastructure automation and tooling for building and deploying embedded and edge workloads at scale.

• Collaborate with firmware, platform, and application teams to ensure seamless delivery from development through production.

• Maintain high standards of documentation, automation, and security throughout the deployment lifecycle.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, or a related technical field.

• 3+ years of professional experience in a software engineering role.

• Proven experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, Bitbucket Pipelines, or similar tools.

• Hands-on experience with containerization technologies like Docker and orchestration tools such as Docker Compose, Docker Swarm, or Kubernetes.

• Strong proficiency in Python, particularly in scripting, automation, and deployment tooling.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience designing and maintaining dockerized build pipelines for compiled software projects, preferably using Docker Bake.

• Experience with configuration management and infrastructure automation tools such as Ansible.

• 2+ years of professional experience programming in C++, preferably using LLVM-based build toolchains.

• 2+ years of professional experience with Rust, including building and deploying Rust applications in production.

• Experience with large-scale, declarative build systems (e.g., Docker Bake, Bazel, Buck, Pants, NX).

• Familiarity with IoT and edge compute fleet management platforms (e.g., AWS IoT Greengrass, Azure IoT Edge) and/or consumer device update systems (e.g., OTA updates for mobile, IoT, or embedded devices).

• Experience with secure secret storage solutions (e.g., HashiCorp Vault, 1Password, Keeper, or open-source alternatives).

• Familiarity with observability platforms (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana) for monitoring distributed deployments.
