Site Reliability Engineer

Job Description

As a Site Reliability Engineer, you will play a key role in automating and optimizing CI/CD pipelines to ensure changes move swiftly and reliably from commit to production. You'll be instrumental in reducing bottlenecks, enhancing deployment reliability, and promoting safe rollout practices using flags, canaries, and staged deployments. Your expertise will strengthen container orchestration, supporting smooth scaling during load spikes and variable traffic patterns. You will evolve the deployment architecture to facilitate multi-region expansion, zero-downtime deployments, and higher-throughput capabilities. Improve monitoring, dashboards, and alerting systems to proactively identify issues and minimize disruptions for end-users. Diagnose latency, queue behavior, and service degradation through detailed log analysis, tracing, and metrics to maintain a consistently fast user experience. Enhance infrastructure-level security and data protection across all environments. Ensure system configurations, permissions, and data flows are aligned with security best practices. Streamline internal tools to enable engineers to debug more efficiently, experiment safely, and maintain development momentum. Document architectural decisions and operational tradeoffs for clarity among future engineers.

Qualifications

1. 2+ years of hands-on DevOps, infrastructure, or platform engineering experience (startup experience strongly preferred). 2. Demonstrated success improving CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, or observability systems. 3. Experience turning ambiguous operational problems into scalable, documented solutions. 4. Strong technical communication skills—clear, concise, and able to explain tradeoffs to engineering and non-engineering stakeholders. 5. Proven ability to enforce best practices while maintaining trust and positive working relationships. 6. Analytical mindset with comfort using metrics and data to drive decisions. 7. Ownership mentality — you push systems toward reliability and continuous improvement.
