About The Role
We’re hiring a Staff Engineer to help architect and scale the internal platforms that support engineering across Invisible. You’ll serve as a senior technical leader, working at the intersection of infrastructure, developer experience, and product engineering.
You won’t be enforcing process—you’ll be building the foundations that make great engineering inevitable: reusable primitives, safe-by-default scaffolds, and tooling that makes velocity and reliability go hand in hand.
What You’ll Do
- Lead the design and evolution of internal SDKs and tooling that abstract away infrastructure complexity
- Architect platform patterns that encode security, observability, and scalability from day one
- Drive adoption of standardized tooling across multiple teams (including client-facing engineering, data, and infra)
- Collaborate with infrastructure, SRE, and security teams to co-own foundations like CI/CD, logging, secrets, and auth
- Contribute to our platform strategy—including documentation, onboarding models, and operational maturity frameworks
- Champion product-minded engineering: ship iteratively, measure impact, and let feedback drive roadmaps
What We Need
- 6+ years of experience as a software engineer, ideally with some time spent building internal platforms or frameworks
- Strong engineering background in Python, TypeScript, or both
- Experience designing APIs, libraries, or abstractions used by other engineers
- Fluency in modern DevOps practices (e.g., CI/CD, containers, infrastructure as code, security practices)
- Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
- Strategic thinker who can operate across abstraction layers—from implementation to architecture to roadmap
