Site Reliability Engineer

Role overview

As a Site Reliability Engineer, you will build and maintain foundational infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and observability frameworks that enable high-throughput, low-latency microservices. You’ll partner with backend engineers to design resilient systems, automate operations, and prevent bottlenecks before they affect customers.

Responsibilities

• Design, provision, and operate multi-region cloud infrastructure on AWS or GCP using Terraform (IaC)
• Maintain and optimize Kubernetes clusters (EKS/GKE), including ingress, service meshes, and autoscaling policies
• Build and support CI/CD pipelines using tools such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or ArgoCD
• Develop observability strategies using Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, and/or OpenTelemetry
• Participate in a blameless on-call rotation, lead incident response, perform root-cause analysis (RCA), and implement permanent fixes
• Automate recurring operational tasks using Python, Go, or Bash to reduce toil and improve developer velocity

Requirements

• 3–6 years experience in SRE, DevOps, or systems engineering managing production cloud infrastructure
• Deep expertise in AWS or GCP and Kubernetes container orchestration
• Strong proficiency with Terraform and configuration management/IaC
• Solid scripting/system engineering skills in Go, Python, or Ruby
• Experience configuring and tuning logging, metrics, and tracing for microservices

Bonus

• Experience with service meshes (Istio/Linkerd)
• Database administration at scale (PostgreSQL / NoSQL)
• Security/compliance frameworks (SOC2 / ISO27001)
