About the role

Developer Infrastructure’s mission is to empower engineering to build with quality, velocity, and confidence.

Our platform comprises the following teams: Build & CI, Testing & Analysis, Source & Artifact Control, and Developer Environments. We’re responsible for all the tooling, systems, and processes that enable engineers to traverse the software development lifecycle at Robinhood.

Our teams help engineering move quickly and safely. We find, fix, and left shift production issues back to development.
