Why we’re looking for you 

Owner.com’s restaurant‑commerce platform is growing rapidly, and our build pipelines must keep pace. We’re hiring a mission‑driven Senior or Staff Build Engineer to own CI/CD across backend, frontend, AND mobile—iOS build pipeline experience is absolutely required. You’ll ensure engineers can ship confidently to production and App Stores, quickly and reliably, with minimal overhead and maximal uptime. 

Your builds power everything from Node.js microservices and web storefronts to iOS and Android apps used by restaurants, diners, and Owner.com’s back‑office teams. 

 How you’ll make an impact 

• Own and scale build automation — design, build, and maintain our CI/CD infrastructure (pipelines, runners, artifact storage, signing agents, self-hosted macOS runners); ensure developers across backend, frontend, and mobile can iterate quickly without worrying about builds breaking down 
• Take charge of our mobile pipelines, with particular focus on iOS: automate versioning, provisioning profile management, keychain handling, automated signing, .ipa generation, TestFlight distribution, and App Store submission via Fastlane or native tooling 
• Embed quality and traceability into build stages — integrate linting, on-device tests (XCTest, Espresso, Appium), code coverage metrics, and build-state dashboards to reduce flakiness and turnaround time 
• Apply an SRE mindset to delivery — model build success/failure ratios as SLIs, define error budgets, track pipeline latency (time to green), and build alerts so broken builds are fixed within minutes 
• Automate for speed and reliability — build caching, parallel job orchestration, staging environment mirroring (via Terraform), and fast rollback workflows so every pipeline is idempotent and traceable. 
• Champion cross-team collaboration — coach developers on writing reliable Makefile/Gradle/Xcode configurations, secure signing practices, and branching models. 
• Lead incident response for build failure — serve on rotational pager for CI systems, drive blameless post-mortems, and automate resilient fallback logic (e.g. fallback runners, sourced caching). 
• Strategize adoption of next-gen tools — evaluate options like GitHub’s macOS runners, Bamboo, Bitrise, or Codemagic to support future iOS scale and cross platform parity.
