Site Reliability Engineer

• Runs incident response drills, post-mortems, and root cause analysis; learns from past incidents to prevent recurrence.
• Starts the day reviewing overnight alerts and system performance metrics, triaging anomalies.
• Participates in team stand-ups on projects, incidents, and daily priorities.
• Automates routine processes, analyzes system logs, and builds tools to strengthen monitoring.
• Works alongside software engineers advising on resilient-code best practices and reviewing changes pre-deployment.
• Maintains high SLIs/SLOs; documents work and shares insights with a customer-centric mindset.

Must have:

• Architecture, design patterns, reliability, and scaling of new and existing systems.
• Incident command experience — driving RCA, coordinating cross-functional teams, ensuring corrective-action follow-through.
• Observability built from the ground up — defining SLOs/SLIs, closing monitoring gaps, alerting strategies that catch failures before customers do.
• Linux kernel internals — scheduler, memory allocation, driver subsystems.
• High-quality code in at least one language (Python, Go, or similar).
• IaC (Ansible, Terraform, Kubernetes) and CI/CD (GitLab CI, AWX, etc.) for bare-metal or cloud infrastructure.
• TCP/IP and network programming.
• Distributed storage systems — object, block, and/or file storage paradigms.

Nice to have:

• Hardware and GPU troubleshooting.
• OVN/OVS-based networking stack exposure.
