• Partner with SRE and product engineering to improve service reliability
• Foster a culture of operational excellence and accountability
• Support the on-call and incident response process, being part of the escalation path
  
  

You’ll love this job if you

• Enjoy mentoring engineers and creating space for their growth
• Are passionate about enabling engineering teams to move fast and safely
• Thrive in solving complex cloud infrastructure problems at scale
• Take pride in designing systems that are observable, cost-effective, and resilient
  
  

Qualifications

• 5+ years of industry experience in software engineering
• Ideally 2+ years of people management experience
• Experience working with distributed systems in Cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
• Experience with tools that manage systems including Terraform, Kubernetes, Salt, and Envoy
• Good written and spoken English communication skills
• Bonus points if you have experience working with globally distributed teams
• Please note the following:
