Shield AI is building autonomous aircraft that push the limits of aviation. The Software Integration & Operations (SIO) team builds and sustains the release systems that make safe, rapid, and repeatable deployment of aircraft software possible. 

As a Staff Build & Release Engineer, you will own packaging, artifact traceability, and release pipelines across the Aircraft Software department. Your mission is to ensure every software build is reproducible, compliant, and ready for fleet deployment — with the tools and reporting to prove it. This is a technical IC role focused on release rigor, security, and reproducibility.
