- Represent the SRE team in stakeholder meetings, championing best practices and driving process improvements
- Collaborate with third-party vendors and internal teams to resolve complex issues
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years experience in a reliability, DevOps, or infrastructure-focused engineering role
- Proven experience supporting Linux-based, cloud-hosted SaaS platforms at scale
- Strong grasp of distributed systems and how to scale them efficiently (event-driven architecture, async processing, caching, etc.)
- Hands-on experience managing performance from API to application to database
- Strong communication skills and the ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly
- Solid understanding of observability and monitoring (OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, etc.)
- Familiarity with or interest in the following technologies:
