Responsibilities
- Own and evolve our GitLab CI/CD pipelines, ensuring reliability, scalability, security, and developer usability across multiple environments and platforms.
- Manage and optimize CI runners—including tool installation, scaling, performance tuning, and cost optimization.
- Develop tooling and automation that streamline build, packaging, artifact management, and release processes for a large, multi-disciplinary development team.
- Partner closely with client, server, QA, and production teams to ensure smooth, predictable build and release cycles.
- Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting for CI infrastructure to ensure high availability and rapid issue detection.
Requirements
- 7+ years of professional experience in build engineering, DevOps, infrastructure engineering, or similar roles, with deep expertise in CI/CD systems at scale.
- Advanced hands-on experience designing and maintaining GitLab CI pipelines and runner infrastructure (Kubernetes, autoscaling runners, caching, artifact strategies, performance tuning).
- Strong background with cloud platforms (Alibaba Cloud, AWS, Azure, or GCP) and container orchestration (Kubernetes). Experience with Terraform or other infrastructure-as-code tools.
- Proficiency in Python, Bash, Go, or similar languages for automation, tooling, and CI workflow orchestration.
- Strong understanding of Linux systems, networking fundamentals, security best practices, and build/release tooling for large-scale, distributed engineering teams.
- Proven experience providing technical leadership, owning systems end-to-end, and mentoring engineers across disciplines.
- Excellent communication skills in both English and Mandarin, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional stakeholders.
- BS or above in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent experience).
Nice to Have
- Experience supporting build pipelines for mobile games or large-scale online applications.
- Familiarity with build systems such as Gradle, Fastlane, CMake, Bazel, or Unity/Unreal build pipelines.
- Knowledge of regulatory and operational considerations when deploying infrastructure in the Chinese market.
- Strong mentorship and leadership skills, helping build a high-performance engineering culture.
