Role Overview

As a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), your primary responsibility will be to ensure the seamless operation of all internal services and platforms.

With over 3.3 billion monthly active users and the processing of vast amounts of data, we operate at an impressive scale, utilizing a diverse technology stack that includes Ruby on Rails, MongoDB, Redis, Kafka, and Kubernetes.

Key Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with engineering teams to:
  • Design products that effectively leverage infrastructure platforms for scalability and reliability.

  • Creating Infrastructure as Code using tools like Chef, Terraform, and Kubernetes.
  • Developing deployment pipelines for applications across various programming languages.

  • Manage incidents by:
  • Participating in a PagerDuty rotation to address availability incidents.
  • Utilizing on-call shifts to proactively prevent incidents.
  • Conducting retrospectives to transform lessons learned into system enhancements.

Who You Are

  • 3+ years of experience in Software Engineering, DevOps, or Site Reliability Engineering.
  • Possess a strong understanding of systems, including interfaces, boundaries, and failure modes.
  • Exhibit a collaborative spirit and a commitment to documentation and rapid delivery.
  • Comfortable working with global remote teams, often asynchronously.
  • Detail-oriented, ensuring knowledge is shared to avoid redundancy.
  • Proactive in addressing issues and committed to improving the experience for all users.
  • Strong multitasking abilities and adept at managing competing priorities.
  • Proficient in Linux and Unix Shell environments.
  • Skilled in programming, preferably in Ruby and/or Go.
  • Experienced with Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and similar Infrastructure as Code technologies.
  • Familiar with data technologies such as MongoDB, Redis, Kafka, and Postgres.
