Qualifications

• 5+ years of hands-on experience operating and designing cloud infrastructure.
• Expert-level understanding of Azure or AWS.
• Multi-cloud experience with Azure, AWS and/or GCP.
• 3+ years of production IaC experience (Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation).
• Ability to design scalable IaC modules and enforce GitOps workflows.
• Strong programming proficiency (Python, Go, Bash) for automation.
• Demonstrated depth across Kubernetes and containerized workloads in production.
• Experience with service mesh (Istio) in production.
• Proven ability to define SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, and toil metrics.
• Knowledge of identity/IAM and federation platforms.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement highly available infrastructure solutions for compute, storage, identity, messaging, and shared services
• Build and maintain Infrastructure as Code using Terraform or Pulumi; establish best practices and standards
• Automate operational workflows to eliminate toil: auto-remediation, self-healing systems, capacity planning
• Define and track SLIs and SLOs for critical services; manage error budgets and reliability targets
• Participate in the on-call rotation and lead incident response for complex infrastructure issues; conduct blameless post-mortems and drive systemic fixes
• Develop observability strategies: metrics, logs, distributed tracing, alerting frameworks
• Apply AI-assisted tooling to reduce toil and speed up investigation: log analysis, alert triage, runbook and post-mortem drafting, automation scaffolding
• Own reliability for one or more infrastructure domains end to end, driving multi-team initiatives with product engineering from problem definition through adoption
• Mentor intermediate SREs; review infrastructure changes; establish operational best practices
