Full Job Description
We are looking for SDE II engineer with experience in supporting mission-critical applications, who are excited about building solutions that enhance automation, stability, and release processes across multiple systems. You will work closely with engineering teams to identify and address common issues, drive solutions, and improve overall release quality and reliability.

This role requires hands-on engagement, troubleshooting, and automation development. You will work within the ANCHOR team, managing release processes and automation to maintain a seamless and efficient pipeline. The team operates an on-call support rotation, and you will be responsible for maintaining release quality and pipeline health. Your work will directly impact Leo's ability to deliver high-quality, reliable releases efficiently.

Export Control Requirement:

Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.

Key job responsibilities

In this role, you will participate in all phases of software development from requirements through implementation and test to operations. Our team vision is to build self-service platform that empower developers to ship the high-quality software to space and ground at the speed of code, reliably, rapidly and at scale.

You will build a unified platform that provides a one-stop view enabling stakeholders to evaluate releases across all dimensions (acceptance, performance, security), reducing manual intervention, accelerating approval, and providing end-to-end traceability.

A successful engineer in this role is :

• Highly analytical: You solve problems in ways that can be backed up with verifiable data. You focus on driving processes, tools, and statistical methods which support rational decision-making.

• Technically fearless: You aren't satisfied by performing 'as expected' and push the limits past conventional boundaries. Your dial goes to '11'.

• Team obsessed: You help grow your team members to achieve outstanding results. You foster the creative atmosphere to let engineers innovate, while holding them accountable for making smart decisions and delivering results.

• You're ambitious, yet humble: You recognize that there's always opportunity for improvement and use introspection and feedback from teammates and peers to raise the bar for your team.

• Engaged by ambiguity: You're able to explore new problem spaces with unique constraints and thus non-obvious solutions; you're quick to identify any gaps in the team and the right person to fill them to best deliver value to customers.
