• Build and maintain monitoring, logging, alerting, dashboards, and observability tools to provide clear insight into application and infrastructure health.
• Lead and support production incident response, diagnose complex issues, coordinate recovery, and drive root-cause analysis and corrective actions through completion.
• Automate repetitive or error-prone operational tasks using Python, Bash, or similar tools to reduce manual work and operational toil.
• Analyze system performance, capacity, latency, error rates, resource use, and scaling needs; resolve bottlenecks and reliability risks.
• Identify single points of failure, dependencies, and failure modes; improve high availability, fault tolerance, disaster recovery, and system resilience.
• Support and improve AWS production environments, including compute, networking, storage, identity and access management, DNS, load balancing, databases, and related services.
• Partner with Engineering and QA to set production-readiness standards and implement deployment safeguards, health checks, rollback plans, and operational validation.
• Create and maintain runbooks, troubleshooting guides, service documentation, escalation procedures, and incident response processes.
• Work across Software Engineering, QA, Infrastructure, Security, Product, and other teams to identify reliability risks and implement lasting solutions.

Experience

• 5+ years in Site Reliability Engineering, production engineering, DevOps, or cloud infrastructure roles.
• 3+ years supporting production workloads on AWS.
• Experience responding to production incidents, investigating root causes, and improving service reliability through monitoring and automation.
• Experience with production systems, cloud infrastructure, and distributed systems, along with strong skills in troubleshooting, incident response, monitoring, and automation.
• Hands-on experience with Amazon CloudWatch for metrics, logs, dashboards, and alarms.
• Working knowledge of AWS CloudTrail, IAM, EC2, VPC, Elastic Load Balancing, Auto Scaling, and Route 53.
• Experience using AWS Systems Manager for secure access, patching, and operational automation.
• Familiarity with infrastructure as code, such as Terraform or AWS CloudFormation.
• Experience with ECS/Fargate or EKS is useful if those services are part of the production environment.
• Must be able to pass a background check and drug screening upon offer.
• Unable to sponsor or hold visa. Must be a US citizen or Green Card holder.
