Robinhood
Our mission is to democratize finance for all. An estimated $124 trillion of assets will be inherited by younger generations in the next two decades. The largest transfer of wealth in human history. If you’re ready to be at the epicenter of this historic cultural and financial shift, keep reading.
We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world's biggest financial problems. We're looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn't a place for complacency, it's where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We're a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards.
The Developer Infrastructure org is the engine behind Robinhood's entire engineering organization — a collection of tightly integrated teams whose collective mission is to make every engineer at Robinhood faster, more reliable, and radically more productive. The org spans three major teams: DevX (Developer Experience), Backend Platform, and Mobile Platform, each building and operating foundational systems that thousands of Robinhood engineers depend on every single day. DevX owns Robinhood's monorepo and Bazel-based build infrastructure — the critical layer between a developer writing code and that code being ready to ship — along with the company's full CI/CD pipeline, remote build execution cluster, and developer environment tooling. Backend Platform and Mobile Platform own the core language runtimes, libraries, IDEs, and developer toolchains across Python, Go, TypeScript, Swift, and Android that power Robinhood engineering at every level. Together, these teams are building toward an audacious goal: an engineering org operating at the frontier of developer velocity — including AI-powered agentic systems that dramatically multiply the output of every engineer.
As the Senior Staff Software Engineer, Developer Infrastructure, you are the technical driver of this entire org — the Uber Tech Lead unifying DevX, Backend Platform, and Mobile Platform under a single, cohesive technical vision. Your primary area of focus will be DevX: owning the technical direction of Robinhood's most critical developer infrastructure, including Bazel build systems, the monorepo, remote build execution, and CI/CD at scale. Beyond DevX, you will play a pivotal role in Robinhood's Agentic Developer Velocity initiative — partnering with AI and platform teams to architect intelligent coding agents and automated workflows that fundamentally change how engineers at Robinhood work. This is a rare opportunity to shape the technical foundation that the entire Robinhood engineering organization builds on!
