Job description

We are looking for an SRE to ensure the reliability, scalability, availability, and observability of high-traffic production systems. The role involves infrastructure automation, Kubernetes operations, monitoring, incident management, and continuous improvement of production reliability.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage and troubleshoot AWS/GCP infrastructure and Kubernetes environments in production.
• Work with Kubernetes, Redis, Kafka, Solr/Elasticsearch and related infrastructure components.
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, Terraform/Helm-based infrastructure, and automation.
• Implement monitoring and alerting using Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/Loki and distributed tracing tools.
• Participate in rotational on-call and shifts, handling P1/P2 incidents, troubleshooting, RCA, and post-incident reviews.
• Develop SLIs/SLOs, alerts, dashboards, runbooks, and reliability improvements.
• Automate repetitive operational tasks using Python, Shell/Bash, or Go to reduce manual toil.
• Work on capacity planning, autoscaling, performance optimization, security patching, and cost optimization.
• Troubleshoot Linux, networking, DNS, TCP/IP, load balancing, TLS/HTTPS, and application/infrastructure issues.
• Drive preventive actions through RCA, automation, self-healing, and improved deployment/recovery processes.

Must-Have Skills

• 3+ years of experience in SRE / DevOps / Infrastructure Engineering
• Experience with high-traffic or large-scale production environments
• Strong experience with AWS or GCP
• Terraform and Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
• Docker and CI/CD
• Linux administration and troubleshooting
• Python / Bash / Shell scripting
• Production incident management, RCA and on-call experience
• Good understanding of networking fundamentals

Good to Have

• ELK/Loki
• Redis, Kafka, Solr/Elasticsearch
• SLI/SLO, SLA and error-budget concepts
• Ansible
• Distributed tracing / OpenTelemetry

Note: This is a rotational-shift/on-call role, so candidates should be comfortable supporting production systems across different shifts.
