Senior Build Engineer - Bazel & Build Platform Engineering

We are looking for a Senior Build Engineer. This is a hands-on platform engineering role at a major OEM, owning the core Bazel-based build infrastructure that underpins software development across developer workstations, large-scale CI systems, and deeply embedded automotive ECUs.

:

• Location: Turin, Italy
• Working model: Hybrid
• Start date: ASAP
• Employment type: Full-time, Contract or Freelance

:

• Design, implement, and maintain Bazel rules, toolchains, platforms, and configuration models for large, multi-language and multi-architecture systems
• Establish hermetic and reproducible builds across Windows, Linux, and embedded targets
• Develop variant-aware build models that scale across ECUs and product configurations without exponential complexity
• Model and normalize compiler toolchains under Bazel, including GCC, Clang, and embedded toolchains such as Tasking, Greenhills, HighTec, and QNX
• Integrate remote caching and remote execution as core platform capabilities to support scale and predictable performance
• Expose build inputs, variants, quality data, and artifacts as declarative data through Bazel targets and outputs to enable downstream automation
• Embed quality and compliance as first-class concerns: SBOM generation, licensing, standards adherence, testing, and traceability
• Drive consistency through shared conventions and inner-source practices across teams, and support large-scale migrations

:

• Several years of hands-on Bazel experience, including Starlark and cross-compilation
• Strong C/C++ foundation, plus Python, Go, or Rust for build-related tooling and automation
• Experience designing reproducible build systems on Windows and Linux
• Familiarity with platform- and variant-aware builds at scale
• A systems and platform mindset, improving foundations rather than applying local fixes
• Ability to collaborate effectively with developers, CI/CD engineers, and platform teams
• Fluent English
