Requirements
Required:
- 6–10 years of experience in SRE, production engineering, infrastructure, or backend engineering within primarily cloud-based environments
- A track record of owning a system end to end — you've designed something significant, shipped it, operated it, and lived with the consequences when it misbehaved
- Hands-on experience defining and operating against SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets
- Strong incident skills: you've led or been a primary responder on high-severity, customer-facing incidents
Nice to have:
- Depth in distributed systems failure modes in high-throughput, low-latency environments
- Strong hands-on experience managing infrastructure through code and configuration
- Fluency with observability tooling including instrumenting systems yourself rather than inheriting dashboards
Responsibilities
- Own the reliability of core production systems end to end
- Define and maintain SLIs and SLOs for the critical paths you own
- Drive alert quality: raise signal, kill noise, and close the gap where customers notice a problem before our monitoring does
- Take a lead role in incident response — investigate systematically across service boundaries
