Some of the best minds from different backgrounds come together at Target to redefine retail in an inclusive learning environment that values people and delivers world-class outcomes. That winning formula is especially apparent in Bengaluru, where Target in India operates as a fully integrated part of Target’s global team and has more than 4,000 team members supporting the company’s global strategy and operations.\nAbout position: Position Overview\nAs an Engineer focused on Developer Productivity and DevEx, you will take a hands-on software development role in building, maintaining, and supporting our long-term software delivery fabric. With your technical skills and developer empathy, you will help write the code that creates a proactive, secure, and flexible environment where software and dev box provisioning is invisible, governed, and highly intelligent.\nYou will contribute directly to a greenfield software delivery ecosystem similar toWorkbrewthat serves two distinct, high-impact cohorts: this project’s macOS-based builder community and theLinux-based automated agents operatingin the CI/CD pipeline. You will help tackle complex software supply chain challenges, building automated threat screening integrations, package quarantine loops, and robust telemetry data pipelines that ensure total visibility across our technical landscape. You will partner with variousteams andstakeholders andcollaborate with engineering partnersto grow your skills while shaping this project’sdeveloperplatform\nHow You Can Make an Impact\nBuild and Maintain: Develop, test, and maintain key features of a unified, greenfield software delivery platform that provides a reviewed, governed Golden Path for software consumption across the company.\nSupport Tooling Ergonomics: Prioritize the developer experience by contributing to clean, ergonomic interfaces and CLI tools that serve as an intuitive safety net rather than a source of friction.\nImplement Supply Chain Defense: Code automated security guardrails, including version cooldown periods and strict quarantine rules, to detect and block supply chain attacks before code enters production environments.\nMaintain Telemetry Data Pipelines: Build and maintain telemetry pipelines to track asset distribution and version drift, streaming data cleanly into our enterprise data stack including Snowflake, Datadog, and Prometheus.\n Apply Technical Governance: Write code to help translate the corporate Tech Radar tiers (Adopt, Trial, Assess, Hold) into real-time, automated platform enforcements.\nCollaborate Effectively: Work closely within the team and with adjacent engineering partners to align daily engineering tasks with organizational threat-screening and compliance standards.\nLearn and Craft: Participatein code reviews, adopt system design best practices, to supporthigh-quality software craftsmanship and platform empathy.\nAbo ut You\nBachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).\n2+ years of professional software development experience, with exposure to Platform Engineering, Infrastructure, SRE, or Developer Experience roles.\nStrong developer empathy and an interest in designing highly ergonomic internal developer tools, CLI interfaces, or APIs, or shared libraries.\nProficiency in at least one programming language used for infrastructure and tooling, such as Golang or Python.\nFoundational understanding of macOS and Linux operating system environments, alongside experience using multi-language package management systems such as Homebrew, pip, and npm.\nExposure to data engineering concepts, including writing queries or handling data schemas for platforms like Snowflake, Datadog, or Prometheus.\nBasic understanding of Software Supply Chain Security concepts such as dependency vulnerability management and package patching.\nGood communication and team collaboration skills, with a commitment to providing high-quality visibility and tools for engineering teams.\nNice to Have\nFamiliarity with environments that utilize LLM-based assistants or automated agents for system configuration and code generation.\nExposure to containerized environments (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) and cloud-native environments like AWS or GCP.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4888,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["E-commerce Platforms","Online Groceries"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-28T12:22:38Z"}],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":8,"reasons":["conf:6","win:early","comp:junior,brand"],"computed_at":"2026-09-29T03:00:22Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/target-engineer-dev-ex","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/target-engineer-dev-ex.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-09-29T03:00:22Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2667,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":2333,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-09-30T00:00:00Z"}}}
