Manager Rbac Jobs in Massachusetts (NOW HIRING)

Building the world's most capable robots demands world-class software infrastructure. As a Staff DevOps Engineer on the Central Software (CSW) team, you will design, build, and operate the on-prem and cloud infrastructure that powers Boston Dynamics' robotics platform - from bare-metal servers in our data center to scalable services running in Google Cloud.

You will take the lead on complex infrastructure projects, contribute to reliability and scale across multiple engineering teams, and be a go-to resource for DevOps best practices. You'll work on problems that are genuinely hard - managing physical server fleets, building reliable hybrid cloud architecture, and ensuring that infrastructure holds up under the demands of a fast-growing robotics company.

What You'll Do

• Build and operate hybrid infrastructure. Design, provision, and maintain on-prem server infrastructure and cloud environments (primarily Google Cloud), ensuring high availability, performance, and cost efficiency across both.

• Scale CI/CD and platform services. Own the infrastructure underpinning CI/CD pipelines, ML workflows, and simulation environments - building for reliability and growth, not just today's load.

• Own reliability for your systems. Contribute to SLO definitions, participate in on-call rotations, lead post-mortem reviews, and drive systemic improvements that reduce recurrence across on-prem and cloud systems.

• Champion Infrastructure as Code. Implement and maintain IaC standards (Terraform, Ansible, Packer) to ensure consistent, reproducible provisioning across all environments - physical and virtual.

• Harden infrastructure security. Collaborate with product security engineers to implement secrets management, RBAC, network segmentation, patch processes, and secure-by-default configurations across the full infrastructure stack.

• Collaborate across teams. Partner with software and robotics engineers to translate infrastructure requirements into durable solutions that unblock core engineering work.

What You Bring

Required

• 5+ years of experience in DevOps or infrastructure engineering, with demonstrated contributions of both on-prem and cloud environments in production.

• Hands-on experience provisioning and managing bare-metal server infrastructure (e.g., metal-kubed, MAAS, Digital Rebar, or similar) at scale.

• Strong experience with Kubernetes - both cloud-managed (GKE, EKS) and self-hosted - in production environments.

• Deep working knowledge of Google Cloud Platform or AWS, including compute, networking, storage, Kubernetes, and cost management.

• Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code tools (Terraform, Ansible, Packer) applied across heterogeneous environments.

• Experience with observability platforms - building dashboards, defining alerts, and driving incident response across distributed infrastructure.

• Demonstrated knowledge of security fundamentals: secrets management, RBAC, service account governance, and network security practices.

• Solid experience with CI/CD systems (e.g., BuildKite, GitLab CI) and build artifact management (e.g., Artifactory, Nexus).

• Ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams and communicate infrastructure concepts clearly to non-infrastructure stakeholders.

• Proficiency in one or more scripting or systems languages: Python, Go, Bash, Rust, or C++.

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.

Nice to Have

• Domain Expertise. Direct experience with robotics-specific infrastructure challenges, such as high-throughput telemetry ingestion, large-scale simulation pipelines, or managing hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing environments.

• Infrastructure Modernization. Proven track record of modernizing legacy components or migrating services across hybrid cloud/on-prem environments while maintaining high uptime for critical engineering workflows.

• Systems Observability. Deep proficiency in observability for distributed systems, specifically diagnosing and resolving performance bottlenecks that span both hybrid cloud and physical network layers.

The base pay range for this position is between $118,000 to $150,000 annually. Base pay will depend on multiple individualized factors including, but not limited to internal equity, job related knowledge, skills and experience. This range represents a good faith estimate of compensation at the time of posting. Boston Dynamics offers a generous Benefits package including medical, dental vision, 401(k), paid time off and an annual bonus structure.
