• Experience with infrastructure-as-code and GitOps workflows (Terraform, Helm, Flux/ArgoCD).
• Experience leading incident response, post-mortems, and on-call rotations.
• Proven track record in recruiting and growing engineering talent.
• Excellent written and verbal communication across time zones; able to influence without authority.
• Willingness to work onsite in London 3 days a week.

Responsabilités

• Design follow-the-sun on-call rotations and escalation paths with US SRE leadership.
• Escalation point for major incidents; drive urgent resolutions and learnings.
• Drive technical decisions through reviews and architectural discussions; translate roadmap into priorities.
• Define and instrument SLOs/SLIs; build observability infrastructure as code.
• Turn failure patterns into runbooks and automated mitigations; enable self-healing systems.
