Acronis is a global leader in cyber protection, delivering AI-powered protection for productive MSPs in a single, natively integrated platform that unifies operations management, cybersecurity, and data protection. Driven by our mission to protect, manage and automate every workload that businesses and lives depend on, we’ve built the industry’s only all-in-one solution.

We are looking for a candidate who will be responsible for the build system and build infrastructure of a large, complex software product — from compiling and packaging hundreds of interdependent components to assembling, signing and publishing the artifacts we release — and for making the build fast, reproducible and trustworthy for everyone who depends on it.

WHAT YOU'LL DO  

• Own, design and evolve the build system for a product assembled from a large number of interdependent components written in several programming languages.
• Build and maintain the build pipelines end to end: isolated and reproducible builds, dependency and version management, build agents and build farms, artifact repositories and caching — and keep build times, success rates and reproducibility under control as the product grows.
• Assemble and validate release deliverables: packages, images and installation artifacts, and the repositories they are distributed from, for several supported release lines maintained in parallel.
• Build and operate the release pipeline: automated build validation and regression gating, artifact signing, promotion between channels, and the publishing and rollback procedures around a release.
• Keep the product buildable through toolchain and dependency upgrades: resolve compiler, library and dependency conflicts, and keep build definitions and downstream patches maintainable instead of accumulating.
• Maintain traceability of everything we ship: versioning and changelogs, artifact provenance, license and SBOM data, and the integration points that security scanning and audits rely on.
• Automate build tooling, release steps and the provisioning of build environments in Python and shell, and integrate the build with the team's source control, review and issue tracking workflows.
• Support developers and QA day to day: fast self-service builds of branches and merge requests, quick diagnosis of build and packaging failures, and unblocking people whose work is stuck behind the build.
• Extend CI/CD coverage: validation on every commit, promotion of artifacts between environments, and integration of automated test suites into release gating.
• Own the build infrastructure itself — build hosts and builder images, artifact storage, capacity planning — working with IT and operations where infrastructure is shared.
• Investigate complex and intermittent build failures and drive them from root cause to a permanent fix rather than a retry.
• Leverage AI-assisted engineering tools for development, code and log analysis, debugging, root-cause investigation and technical research.
• Document the build and release processes so that they are reproducible by someone else, and share that expertise with the development and QA teams.
• Maintain clear communication with the development lead on build and release status, risks, dependencies and critical issues.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

• 5+ years in build, release or DevOps engineering for complex software products, including ownership of a build system as a whole and not only of individual CI jobs.
• Strong CI/CD engineering: Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions or comparable; pipelines as code, build agents, and artifact repositories.
• Solid experience with software packaging and the distribution of binary artifacts on Linux, including artifact signing and repository or channel management.
• Ability to read, fix and take over build definitions written by other teams across multiple languages and build tools (make, CMake, autotools, and language-native build and packaging tooling).
• Deep understanding of dependency and version management, reproducible and hermetic builds, incremental builds and build caching.
• Solid Python and shell scripting for build tooling and release automation.
• Strong Linux systems knowledge, plus containers and configuration management tooling.
• Confident with Git and with branching and release models in a product that maintains several releases at once.
• Experience delivering updates to already installed software — channels, staged rollout, acceptance and rollback — is a strong advantage.
• Familiarity with software supply chain practices: signing, SBOM, dependency and vulnerability scanning.
• Experience scaling a build system — parallelism, distributed builds, cutting build times from hours to minutes — is a strong advantage.
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, and the patience to take over a large inherited build system with incomplete documentation.
• AI-assisted engineering experience is mandatory, including practical use of AI for development, debugging, log analysis, investigation and technical research.
• Demonstrated ability to treat the build as a product that the rest of engineering depends on, and to share technical expertise across teams.
• Excellent English communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
