About the Role

We are looking for an experienced and versatile software engineer to work on the tools and systems that support Firefox engineering.

This is a broad software engineering role spanning internal engineering systems, developer tooling, workflow automation, and the infrastructure required to operate them. We are looking for an engineer with strong software development skills and meaningful experience deploying and operating production systems.

Our Cloud Engineering teams provide shared platforms and foundational services, while engineering teams own the applications and services they run on them. A key part of this role is helping teams succeed in that model by solving difficult operational problems, establishing standards and patterns, and building tooling and automation that makes systems easier to operate. You will also contribute directly to the software, tools, and systems that support Firefox engineering.

What You'll Do

  • Design, build, deploy, and operate software and systems supporting Firefox engineering.
  • Contribute to developer tooling, CI/CD, workflow automation, and AI-assisted development tools.
  • Own complex technical problems end-to-end across software, cloud, and operational layers, improving reliability, performance, observability, and cost efficiency.
  • Work with Firefox engineering, Cloud Engineering, IT, and other teams to solve problems that span technical and organizational boundaries.
  • Use telemetry, metrics, and data analysis to investigate problems and guide engineering decisions.
  • Contribute to architecture and technical strategy, identifying recurring problems and solutions that can be applied across teams.

What You'll Bring

  • Strong programming skills in languages such as Python or JavaScript/TypeScript (experience with C++ or Rust is useful).
  • Experience building, deploying, and operating production systems in cloud environments, including utilizing infrastructure as code such as Terraform.
  • Experience across areas such as CI/CD, containers and orchestration, networking, databases, observability, or developer tooling.
  • Experience using data, telemetry, and metrics to investigate technical problems and make decisions.
  • Familiarity with modern AI-assisted development tools and an understanding of their capabilities, limitations, and appropriate use.

How You Work

  • You are comfortable jumping into unfamiliar systems and getting them into a sustainable state.
  • You enjoy moving across projects and technical domains, taking ownership of problems and looking for patterns that make the next one easier to solve.
  • You work effectively across disciplines and can translate between software, infrastructure, and operational concerns.
  • You combine hands-on engineering with systems thinking and longer-term technical judgment.
  • You communicate openly, consistently, and respectfully, and enjoy teaching and helping others build skills in unfamiliar technical areas.

What You'll Get

  • Generous performance-based bonus plans
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Generous retirement contributions with 100% immediate vesting
  • Quarterly all-company wellness days
  • Country-specific holidays plus a day off for your birthday
  • One-time home office stipend
  • Annual professional development budget
  • Quarterly well-being stipend
  • Considerable paid parental leave
  • Employee referral bonus program
  • Life/AD&D, disability, and EAP benefits
