About the role

Billions of jobs a month, and this team builds the systems that make GitHub Actions possible. Distributed systems, container orchestration, cloud infrastructure, and the security work that comes with running untrusted code for everybody.

Isolation for arbitrary user-supplied workloads at this volume is a hard security problem with no forgiving version, and it is named in the responsibilities rather than implied.

US remote, with on-call first responder rotations included honestly in the description. Kubernetes and CI/CD experience assumed. The band is very wide.
