Job Description:

Shield AI is building autonomous aircraft that redefine aviation. The Software Integration & Operations (SIO) team builds the pipelines, tools, and systems that make fast, reliable delivery of complex aircraft software possible. 

As a DevOps Engineer, you’ll own our CI/CD and automation stack — driving developer velocity, pipeline health, and large-scale test execution from single-agent runs to cluster-orchestrated mission scenarios. This is a hands-on IC role that removes bottlenecks, accelerates iteration, and ensures every engineer can test and ship with speed and rigor. 


Required qualifications:
  • BS in CS, CE, EE, or related field with 5+ years industry experience (or MS/PhD with 3+ years).  
  • Strong expertise in CI/CD tools (Azure DevOps, Jenkins, GitHub Actions).  
  • Proficiency with containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, cloud build clusters).  
  • Strong scripting skills (Python, Bash, PowerShell).  
  • Hands-on experience integrating automated testing into CI pipelines.  
  • Demonstrated success improving developer productivity at scale.  
  • Demonstrated track record of excellence as a primary contributor on projects - showcasing the ability to navigate through development cycles, overcome obstacles, and deliver high-quality solutions in a fast-paced environment 


Preferred qualifications:
  • Experience building simulation or HIL-based test pipelines.  
  • Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Ansible) and monitoring (Grafana, Prometheus).  
  • Background in robotics, autonomy, or aerospace systems.
