Description For Senior Staff Software Developer, Developer Infra

Robinhood Markets, a pioneering fintech company, is revolutionizing finance by making financial markets accessible to everyone. As a Senior Staff Software Developer in the Developer Infrastructure organization, you'll play a crucial role in shaping the future of developer experience at Robinhood. This position offers an opportunity to serve as a technical leader and architect across the organization, focusing on improving velocity, quality, and reliability at scale.

The Developer Infrastructure team serves as the backbone of Robinhood's engineering capabilities, enabling every engineer to deliver exceptional software faster, safer, and at scale. We believe in creating invisible yet powerful infrastructure that's intuitive, resilient, and empowering. Our mission centers on eliminating friction, enhancing feedback loops, and driving developer productivity through operational excellence and world-class tooling.

In this role, you'll architect and build foundational systems that scale Robinhood's software delivery capabilities, lead cross-organizational technical initiatives, and drive improvements across build systems, test infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and developer observability. You'll be responsible for setting technical strategy, championing automation and reliability, and providing technical mentorship to engineers across the company.

The position requires a seasoned professional with 10+ years of software engineering experience, including significant time in senior technical roles. You'll need deep expertise in developer infrastructure systems, strong programming skills (particularly in Go, Python, or JavaScript/TypeScript), and a proven track record of leading cross-functional initiatives. The role offers competitive compensation ranging from $213,000 to $250,000 CAD and includes participation in Robinhood's bonus and equity plans.

Join us in our mission to democratize finance for all while working with cutting-edge technology and shaping the future of developer infrastructure at a leading fintech company.
