Service Reliability & Operations

• Support the availability and durability of critical services across production environments.
• Monitor service health using SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets, and escape issues when thresholds are at risk.
• Participate in on‑call rotations, incident response, and post‑incident reviews to drive service improvements.
• Follow established ITIL/OSS processes (incident, change, problem, and capacity management).

Automation & Tooling

• Develop automation for common operational tasks, reducing manual intervention and toil.
• Contribute to monitoring, logging, and alerting frameworks (Prometheus, Grafana, Catchpoint, ELK).
• Work with CI/CD pipelines, configuration management, and infrastructure as code tools (Terraform, Ansible, Jenkins).
• Write scripts (Bash, Python, Go, etc.) to improve system reliability and efficiency.

Collaboration

• Partner with engineering, product, and operations teams to support resilient system design and operations.
• Assist in capacity planning and disaster recovery exercises.
• Work with vendors and service providers to troubleshoot service issues and track SLA performance.
• Document systems, share learnings, and help grow a reliability‑minded engineering culture.

Continuous Improvement

• Contribute to playbooks, runbooks, and operational documentation.
• Identify recurring issues and propose long‑term improvements.
• Promote reliability‑focused practices within development and operations teams.

Education & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• 2–4 years of experience in site reliability, systems engineering, or operations.
• Exposure to large‑scale, production‑grade systems.

Technical Skills

• Solid Linux systems administration and troubleshooting skills.
• Familiarity with service reliability concepts – monitoring, alerting, incident response, and root cause analysis.
• Proficiency in at least one scripting language (Python, Bash, or Go).
• Understanding of containers (Kubernetes, Docker) and microservices concepts.
• Knowledge of incident response and operational best practices.

Preferred Attributes

• Experience in a SaaS, service provider, or distributed systems environment.
• Familiarity with ITIL/OSS practices and SLO/SLA’s.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and willingness to learn new technologies.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
• Ability to work independently, take ownership, and drive projects from problem discovery through resolution.

We are proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer.
