📋 Description

• Lead the technical architecture and execution of our landmark migration from a legacy GCP environment to a modern, scalable infrastructure on AWS EKS. • Architect, design, and drive our core infrastructure, defining the patterns for Terraform and GitOps that the rest of the organization will follow. • Champion and drive our SLO-driven culture, setting the strategy for how we define, measure, and implement SLOs for critical user journeys, guided by the four Golden Signals (Latency, Traffic, Errors, and Saturation). • Lead the design and development of critical tooling and automation in Node.js and Go to solve entire classes of problems for our developers. • Lead the architectural evolution of our in-house, K6-based load testing platform, ensuring it can scale to meet future product demands. • Act as a primary subject matter expert for our Istio service mesh, driving its architecture, adoption, and optimization. • Spearhead and own high-priority initiatives, including the development of agentic workflows and intelligent automation for SRE domains like proactive scaling and automated remediation. • Act as a technical leader by participating in our blameless on-call rotation, mentoring other engineers through complex incidents and ensuring all post-mortems lead to systemic, long-term improvements.

🎯 Requirements

• Extensive Experience: 8-10+ years in SRE, DevOps, or Software Engineering, with a proven track record of operating at a Staff level. • Proven Technical Leadership: You have a history of mentoring other senior engineers, influencing technical direction across multiple teams, and leading large-scale projects to completion. • Expert Coder: You are a polyglot with deep expertise in languages like Node.js or Go and a history of building and maintaining critical automation and services. • Kubernetes Architect: You have an expert-level, architectural understanding of Kubernetes (EKS preferred), including networking, custom controllers, and control plane optimization. • Infrastructure as Code Expert: You are a Terraform expert who has designed and implemented large-scale, reusable, and secure IaC frameworks, not just consumed them. • Observability Architect: You have designed and implemented observability strategies from the ground up, leveraging platforms like Datadog to create actionable SLOs and provide deep system insight. • CI/CD Architect: You have designed, built, and scaled complex CI/CD systems (ideally with GitHub Actions and self-hosted runners) that are used by an entire engineering organization. • Expert Systems Thinker: You can decompose highly ambiguous, complex, cross-functional problems into solvable parts and lead the technical solution from concept to production.
