# Staff Software Engineer, Build (Bazel) at Airbnb

Airbnb's Developer Infrastructure team is seeking a Staff Software Engineer to lead the evolution of their build systems, particularly around Bazel and remote build infrastructure. You'll architect improvements to accelerate developer velocity and CI performance across multiple platform teams, working on systems that support backend, web, and mobile engineers. This role offers significant influence over build infrastructure spanning the entire organization, including diagnosing bottlenecks in remote execution, cache efficiency, and critical path analysis while establishing standards that shape how thousands of engineers ship code.

The ideal candidate brings 8+ years of software engineering experience with deep Bazel expertise, including knowledge of action graphs, dependency analysis, and remote caching. You should be metrics-driven, comfortable presenting technical roadmaps to leadership, and skilled at building cross-organizational consensus around infrastructure investments. A computer science degree or equivalent background is preferred, along with strong code review capabilities and the ability to navigate complex application architectures at scale.

This is a fully remote position within the USA, though the role may include occasional office visits or team offsites as arranged with your manager. Airbnb requires that you reside in a state where the company maintains a registered entity; check their careers page for the current list of excluded states.
