This role is ideal for engineers who prioritize reliability, metrics, performance, and scalable system design. If you enjoy improving deployment processes, ensuring stability, and helping teams ship high-quality software, this is a great fit.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as a hands-on engineer focused on reliability, performance, and system observability
- Define and maintain SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets
- Optimize monitoring costs and improve metrics, logging, and tracing quality
- Enhance deployment safety, canary rollouts, and UAT pipelines
- Build tools for automated and local performance testing, including benchmarks
- Lead resilience initiatives such as failover drills, chaos testing, and redundancy checks
- Work with engineering teams to refine scaling patterns and architecture
- Support incident response and reduce operational noise
- Write clean, production-ready code in Go, Python, or Node.js
- Contribute to CI/CD automation and improvements
- Collaborate across teams to elevate reliability standards
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in SRE, DevOps, or Platform Engineering
- Strong background with cloud platforms (AWS preferred), Kubernetes, and Terraform
- In-depth understanding of observability tools such as DataDog, Prometheus, or OpenTelemetry
- Strong debugging abilities across services, networking, and data layers
- Proven experience building and monitoring SLIs/SLOs
- Familiarity with CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, ArgoCD, etc.)
- Ability to write production-quality code in Go, Python, or Node.js
- Comfortable operating independently in fast-paced environments
Nice to Have
- Experience optimizing observability costs and data ingestion
- Familiarity with chaos engineering and progressive deployment strategies
- Work with high-throughput or low-latency systems
- Hands-on experience with AWS at scale (EKS, Lambda, DynamoDB, S3)
- Exposure to regulated industries (fintech, payments, SOC2)
- Background in performance or load-testing automation
- Experience with systems processing tens of millions of API calls
If you don’t meet every requirement or don’t match the current opening, skilled SREs with real production experience are still encouraged to apply. We regularly place engineers across reliability, DevOps, platform, observability, backend, and infrastructure roles.
