This is an exciting opportunity to shape the future of our infrastructure systems, leveraging cloud technologies and Site Reliability Engineering practices to build highly available, robust, and scalable solutions.

Where You Are

We are a fully remote company with a focus on hiring during US timezones. While we embrace a remote-first culture, time zones will be an important consideration for collaboration.

  • Design, implement, and maintain Infrastructure as Code across multiple environments, primarily focusing on Google Cloud (GCP).
  • Manage incident response and blameless post-mortems, troubleshooting complex systemic issues and building automation to prevent recurrences.
  • Implement and manage advanced observability stacks (monitoring, logging, alerting, and distributed tracing) to ensure infrastructure reliability and proactive issue detection.
  • Collaborate with development teams to streamline application deployment workflows, optimize capacity planning, and enforce best practices for scalable architecture.
Required Skills
  • 5+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering or DevOps, with a deep understanding of cloud infrastructure, high availability, and distributed systems.
  • Strong expertise with Kubernetes (GKE preferred) for container orchestration, including hands-on experience with Helm for deployment management.
  • Solid proficiency with Google Cloud (GCP) and hands-on experience using gcloud. Experience with AWS or Azure is also valuable.
  • Proficient in scripting languages such as Python or Bash.
  • Deep expertise in setting up and managing observability tools, specifically Google Cloud Operations Suite (Cloud Logging, Cloud Monitoring, Cloud Trace) and Google Managed Service for Prometheus.
  • Excellent problem-solving and troubleshooting skills under pressure.
Preferred Skills
  • Familiarity with configuration management tools (e.g., Terraform, OpenTofu).
  • Experience with automated incident management platforms (e.g., PagerDuty, Opsgenie).
  • Exposure to microservices architectures and best practices for resilient deployment.
