About this role
Role overview Own the reliability, performance, and delivery practices for a product’s infrastructure. This hands-on position combines platform engineering, operations, automation, and technical leadership: you will define measurable reliability goals, improve the path from code to production, and help the team respond to incidents effectively.
Responsibilities - Build, operate, and scale infrastructure with reliability and cost efficiency in mind. - Define and track service indicators, objectives, and error budgets for availability, latency, throughput, and scale. - Reduce operational toil through automation, infrastructure as code, and self-healing systems. - Design and improve CI/CD pipelines so teams can release safely and receive fast feedback. - Partner with software engineers and QA on testing, deployments, and shared production ownership. - Use AI-assisted operations to identify anomalies, reduce alert noise, and support remediation; lead blameless incident reviews and mentor engineers.
Requirements - Five or more years in SRE, DevOps, or platform engineering, with end-to-end system ownership. - Strong understanding of reliability practices, including service objectives, error budgets, and toil reduction. - Practical experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure as code. - Experience with a major cloud platform and container tools such as Kubernetes or Docker. - Ability to automate with a language such as Python, Go, or Bash. - Observability experience across metrics, logs, traces, and alerting, plus applied experience with AI/AIOps. - Technical leadership, collaboration, and mentoring skills.
Nice to have - Google Cloud Run experience, prior AIOps integration, or performance and load testing. - Familiarity with security and compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, or GDPR.
Benefits and work setup - Remote or hybrid work options. - Private health and dental coverage, with an option to add a family member. - Additional vacation days after the first and fifth years. - Sponsored learning and development, referral rewards, social events, and a sports pass. - Free parking and access to office recreation and relaxation areas.
