* Drive measurable improvements to the reliability, performance, and efficiency of our production systems through instrumentation, analysis, and implementation of engineering improvements.
* Devise repeatable, low-toil operational practices through the development of automated systems for software delivery, system failover, and capacity management.
About You:
* At least 3 years experience in an SRE role, or at least 5 years experience in an adjacent role (e.g. platform engineering), operating in a scaled environment.
* Firm grasp of the SRE philosophy and mindset, with practical experience working on or directly with SRE teams that have proactively engaged in system design and improvement.
* Strong sense of accountability and commitment to problem solving, backed by a curiosity to dig deep and identify root causes.
* Willingness to proactively engage with development teams to influence the course of software design and operational practices.
* Capability to manage risk, make decisions, and exhibit sound judgment
* Demonstrated ability to plan and deliver long-term projects
* Experience with distributed system design
* Experience with Containers, Virtual Machines, and Linux
* Bonus: Experience working with Terraform and/or Golang
* Competitive compensation package, including equity.
* Learn and Grow - we provide mentorship and send you to events that help you build your network and skills.
* Flexible Time Off.
* We will provide you the gear you need to do your role, and a WFH budget for you to outfit your space as needed.
