If you are an elite platform or build engineer looking to transition into formal leadership without sacrificing your technical edge or getting buried in corporate bureaucracy, this direct-hire, hybrid track offers the perfect equilibrium. This high-growth, financially stable organization is a global pioneer in industrial machine software and AI automation. Unlike traditional, slow-moving corporate environments where managers only sit in meetings, this fast-paced engineering culture expects its leaders to stay technical, review code, and architect real solutions side-by-side with their team.

The organization completely rejects rigid corporate tenure metrics, choosing instead to map out aggressive, performance-driven advancement tracks. As a working team lead for a highly specialized, tight-knit platform division, your time will be split between hands-on engineering execution and mentoring an exceptional crew of infrastructure developers. Backed by incredible stability, top-tier health and retirement benefits, and an innovation-first culture, this is a premium space to take a high-impact architectural seat while building a decades-long career.

What You Will Be Doing (Daily Responsibilities)

• Provide active technical leadership as a working team lead, jumping into the codebase, managing complex automated build architectures, and troubleshooting low-level systems.
• Drive team mentorship and management by directing daily standups, providing technical coaching, and utilizing clear career-mapping tools to scale a specialized DevOps team.
• Optimize next-generation automation strategies for global software delivery, container deployment mechanics, and customized Infrastructure as Code script frameworks.
• Execute data-driven system tuning by analyzing real-time build performance metrics and automated testing logs to eliminate infrastructure bottlenecks and optimize compiler efficiency.
• Serve as the direct cross-functional liaison between embedded software divisions, quality assurance, and executive leadership to maintain a highly reliable, secure production stack.

What We Are Looking For (Requirements & Qualifications)

• 5+ years of hands-on experience in DevOps, Build Engineering, or SRE roles with a rock-solid, verifiable software engineering foundation.
• Verifiable, hands-on experience navigating low-level build environments, specifically Embedded Linux infrastructure.
• Advanced, practical capability architecting CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
• A working-manager mindset with a strong desire to lead from the front, focusing heavily on peer code reviews, active technical mentorship, and tactical project delegation rather than hands-off administration.
• A stable, progressive work history showing reliability, strong team collaboration, and long-term commitment to past employers.
• Proximity to the facility, with the requirement to reside within a dependable 45-minute daily driving radius of the Greater Milwaukee, WI area to support the hybrid onsite schedule.
