-
Owning end-to-end delivery of moderate-to-high complexity projects on the team’s roadmap, with minimal day-to-day direction.
-
Operating and hardening shared Elastic Cloud infrastructure (ECH, ECE, and ECK) as Infrastructure as Code – writing and reviewing the Terraform, Python, and Go that other engineers depend on.
-
Carrying a 24/7 on-call rotation: responding to incidents, driving them to resolution, and writing clear RCAs/postmortems that lead to lasting fixes rather than repeat pages.
-
Reviewing others’ code and designs, and being a trusted second set of eyes on production changes to critical infrastructure.
-
Mentoring less experienced engineers, and proactively raising risks, ideas, and improvements in team discussions.
-
Improving runbooks, documentation, and operational processes so the on-call load gets lighter over time.
-
5+ years of SRE, platform engineering, or infrastructure engineering experience
-
Proficiency with Terraform; comfortable owning large, multi-workspace configurations in a team setting

Experience carrying a 24/7 on-call rotation, resolving incidents under pressure, and writing RCAs that hold up under review.
-
A track record of consistently delivering end-to-end projects of moderate-to-high complexity with minimal oversight, and being a valuable code/design reviewer for your team.
-
Comfort thinking about the security implications of the infrastructure you build, not just its reliability – you don’t need to be a security specialist, but you default to a security-conscious mindset.
-
A pattern of mentoring less experienced engineers and speaking up with ideas and concerns in team discussions.
-
Clear written and verbal communication – you document what you build and can explain it to both engineers and non-engineers.
-
Comfort working across time zones, in both real-time and asynchronous contexts.
-
Experience with the Elastic Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Beats, Kibana) in production.

Experience with GitOps-style deployment tooling (ArgoCD, Helm) or policy-as-code frameworks (e.g., Kyverno) on Kubernetes.
