What You’ll Accomplish
Own and lead projects in your domain: turn ambiguous goals into sequenced plans, and set new projects up for success in production, including SLOs, observability, safe rollout and on-call readiness.
Design and maintain scalable, secure cloud infrastructure. Drive adoption of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and config management practices, and establish reusable patterns and standards for your domain.
Build self-service tooling and standardized workflows for deployment, monitoring and infrastructure management.
Lead incident response and participate in the on-call rotation. Drive post-incident reviews and RCAs that reduce MTTD/MTTR and prevent repeat incidents.
Define SLOs for the systems you own, track key reliability metrics, and use them to prioritize stability work, capacity planning and disaster recovery.
Partner with engineering, product and security teams on CI/CD, observability and safe launches. Author design docs and influence architectural decisions with a focus on operational excellence.
Evaluate and implement tools that improve reliability and developer productivity, including AI-assisted tooling used safely. Be a go-to expert in your area and bring new ideas to the roadmap.
Mentor engineers through pairing, code review and onboarding materials, and contribute to hiring.
Basic Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
- 3+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps or related roles, including production on-call.

- Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code tools (e.g., Terraform).
- Familiarity with logging and observability tools (e.g., Datadog, Grafana, New Relic).
- Expertise in CI/CD pipeline design, usage and implementation (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab, Jenkins).
- Proficiency in at least one programming or scripting language (e.g., Python, Go, Bash).
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in a high-growth, fast-paced technology or healthcare environment.
- Practical judgment on where AI tools help and where they don’t.
- Experience with monitoring, alerting, and incident response best practices, including defining SLOs.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, with experience working in cross-functional teams.
- Experience with performance tuning, capacity planning, and disaster recovery.
- Demonstrated ability to mentor junior engineers and lead technical projects.
- Deep knowledge of security best practices and compliance frameworks (e.g., HIPAA, SOC 2).
- Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred, or equivalent depth on another major cloud) and container orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes).
