Job Description

CloudLinux is seeking a hands-on Staff Engineer to lead the development of complex, cross-cutting systems and own the product vision and roadmap. This role combines Full Stack Senior Developer (70%) and Technical Product Owner (30%) responsibilities, requiring the ability to gather stakeholder requests and transform them into production-grade code. The engineer will drive the development of an extensible code review platform capable of analyzing source code across multiple programming languages using advanced static analysis techniques. Responsibilities include leading architectural design, guiding engineering teams, promoting engineering excellence, and exploring new technologies, including AI and large language models, to enhance static analysis capabilities and manage unstructured data.
Good To Have:
  • Experience with static analysis techniques (AST parsing, control/data flow analysis, pattern matching)
  • Integration with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Gerrit)
  • Experience with AI and large language models for static analysis
Must Have:
  • Lead architectural design and technical direction
  • Gather requirements from multiple stakeholders
  • Guide multiple engineering teams
  • Collaborate across teams for requirements and priorities
  • Promote engineering excellence and best practices
  • Ensure robust, secure, and performant solutions

We're seeking a hands-on Staff Engineer who can lead the development of complex, cross-cutting systems in the company while also owning the product vision and roadmap. This role is ideal for someone who operates as a Full Stack Senior Developer (70%) and a Technical Product Owner (30%) — a builder who can gather and understand the requests from stakeholders and transform them into a proof-of-concept, later developing it into production-grade code. The person should think strategically, engage with stakeholders, and drive product direction.

Project Example: Code Reviewer Platform

As a Staff Engineer, one of the key initiatives you'll be leading is the development of an extensible code review platform capable of analyzing source code across multiple programming languages and repository structures. This system is designed to integrate advanced static analysis techniques—including AST parsing, control/data flow analysis, and pattern matching—to detect bugs, enforce coding standards, and flag potential security or performance issues. A major focus is on making this system adaptable to the needs of diverse teams, with customization and extensibility built in from the ground up.

You will drive the technical direction, working closely with DevOps to ensure seamless integration with CI/CD pipelines such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, and Gerrit. This platform is expected to be lightweight, easy to adopt, and capable of scaling across a large organization with many engineering teams.

In addition to system design and implementation, you will help define company-wide code review standards, collaborate with development teams to improve PR/MR processes, and work to automate repetitive tasks in the code review lifecycle. You'll also play a key role in mentoring engineers on best practices and ensuring high code quality across the board.

A significant part of the role involves researching and prototyping novel approaches, including the use of AI and large language models, to enhance static analysis capabilities and manage unstructured data in review workflows.

Responsibilities:

  • Gather requirements from multiple stakeholders on a project.
  • Lead architectural design and technical direction for high-impact initiatives.
  • Guide multiple engineering teams in the adoption of scalable, maintainable solutions.
  • Collaborate across teams to gather requirements and align on priorities.
  • Promote engineering excellence through design reviews, mentorship, and best practices.
  • Continuously explore and evaluate new technologies, methodologies, and tools.
  • Ensure that all solutions are robust, secure, and performant in production environments.
  • Champion a culture of automation, reliability, and continuous improvement.
