You will play a crucial role in designing resilient infrastructure, automating operational workflows, and shaping the future of our production environments while collaborating across engineering teams to drive technical excellence.
Location: This role will require Monday - Thursday onsite in any of our locations. WFH Friday.
Job Responsibilities- System Resilience: Design, build, and maintain highly available, scalable, and secure infrastructure to support our AI-native cybersecurity platform.
- Automation & Tooling: Develop internal tooling and automation to streamline deployment processes, incident response, and capacity planning.
- Performance Engineering: Monitor system performance and proactively identify bottlenecks, optimizing infrastructure for low-latency, high-throughput AI workloads.
- Incident Management: Lead incident response efforts, conduct post-mortems, and implement long-term solutions to prevent recurring reliability issues.
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Manage infrastructure via code, driving consistency, auditability, and scalability across our cloud environments (e.g., AWS, GCP).
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with sibling Engineering teams, Product, and Security teams to ensure reliability is baked into our development lifecycle from concept to production.
Required Skills & QualificationsSRE & Infrastructure Expertise- Core Engineering: 10+ years of experience in SRE, DevOps, or Software/Systems Engineering, particularly in managing production systems at scale.
- Cloud Infrastructure: Deep expertise in public cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and managing services such as Kubernetes (EKS/GKE), networking, and storage.
- Infrastructure as Code: Extensive experience with tools like Terraform, Pulumi, or similar technologies to manage complex infrastructure deployments.
- Observability: Hands-on experience with monitoring, logging, and tracing stacks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Datadog) to drive data-informed reliability decisions.
- Distributed Systems: Solid understanding of microservices architecture, distributed databases, and event-driven systems.
Soft Skills- Communication: Clear, concise communication skills and a bias for collaborative problem-solving.
- Leadership Alignment: Proven track record of guiding multi-stakeholder initiatives and influencing engineering practices across teams.
- Analytical Rigor: Strong problem-solving, debugging, and analytical skills, especially in high-pressure environments.
