DevOps Engineer

Full-time · Santa Monica, CA (Hybrid)

Build and run the development, build, and release infrastructure that lets a small team ship Haven reliably as a local AI system for macOS.

Responsibilities

  • Design and maintain CI/CD for Haven and its supporting services, including reproducible builds, release channels, rollback, and environment parity.
  • Own the macOS build and release path, including Apple silicon packaging, signing, notarization, dependencies, model assets, and update delivery.
  • Keep development, test, and shipped environments aligned so the software engineers run locally is the software users receive.
  • Build privacy-conscious observability for builds, services, and releases — logs, metrics, and alerts that help the team diagnose problems without creating unnecessary telemetry.
  • Automate setup, testing, packaging, and release work so engineers spend their time improving Haven rather than maintaining individual machines.
  • Partner with AI, frontend, and platform engineers to keep local inference, native capabilities, APIs, and application builds reliable.
  • Respond to build and release failures, document what happened, and improve the system so the same failure is less likely to happen twice.

Qualifications

  • Hands-on experience owning CI/CD, build environments, release automation, or production infrastructure.
  • Strong comfort across macOS and Linux, including packaging, permissions, processes, networking, and the differences that make software fail outside a developer machine.
  • Experience with macOS application signing/notarization, native packaging, or desktop software distribution is strongly preferred.
  • Experience with containers or equivalent isolation, dependency management, and reproducible development or build environments.
  • Working knowledge of observability, logs, metrics, alerting, networking, and enough systems debugging to trace a failure across multiple components.
  • Ability to automate infrastructure and release work with scripts and infrastructure-as-code rather than one-off machine configuration.
  • Strong ownership and comfort supporting a small engineering team that moves quickly.
