What is The Role
What You Will Be Doing
-
Engineering software to automate large-scale systems — building internal tools and services, not just running scripts.
-
Optimizing the reliability and lifecycle of hosts across multiple cloud providers.
-
Strengthening our observability posture — crafting alerting and monitoring systems that drive incident prevention over incident response.
-
Scaling global infrastructure and evolving the infrastructure management processes to meet growing demand.
-
Contributing to code reviews, sharing your work, planning what we need to do next, and both mentoring and being mentored by teammates.
-
Being part of a balanced SRE on-call rotation: responding to incidents, improving runbooks, participating in postmortems, and championing reliability improvements.
What You Bring
-
Production experience operating large-scale cloud compute (hundreds of hosts or more) via automated workflows.
-
Deep experience with Linux systems — you are at home in the terminal debugging at the OS level.
-
Experience building software with Golang. You are also comfortable reviewing others' code and offering constructive feedback.
-
Proficiency working with containerized workloads in production.
-
A customer-first, systems-thinking approach to operational problems — you care about root causes, not just symptoms.
-
Comfortable working across time zones in both real-time and asynchronous contexts.
-
You contribute clear and maintainable documentation such as software designs, runbooks, architecture diagrams/decisions, postmortems, etc...
-
You communicate project status regularly and clearly, flag blockers early, and follow through on action items.
-
A sensible approach to AI integration — identifying where AI tools genuinely reduce operational burden and embedding them into workflows without adding complexity.
Bonus Points
-
Production experience with any of: Terraform/OpenTofu, Puppet/OpenVox, Ansible, Argo CD, Argo Workflows, CUE, Docker, Kubernetes, Ubuntu, or Ubuntu Live Patch.
-
Experience being on-call during incidents and using observability tools (e.g. Elastic Stack, Graphite, Prometheus, Influx) to diagnose issues, quantify impact, and confirm mitigations.
-
Hands-on experience engineering solutions with the Elastic Stack.
