Senior Site Reliability Engineer
We are hiring a Senior Reliability Engineer to join our newly formed Reliability Engineering Team (RET) — a team that operates like a product engineering squad, focused on building reliability as a platform capability across the organization.
This is not a support or operations role. It is a core software engineering position where you will design, build, and ship shared reliability solutions that empower multiple product teams with safe deployments, deep observability, and resilient runtime systems.
Essential functions
Design & build reliability platforms — services, libraries, CLIs, and automation used across teams
Develop deployment controllers, config validators, tracing libraries, queue monitors & more
Own the end-to-end lifecycle: design → implementation → testing → rollout → evolution
Define APIs, SDKs, templates, Helm charts, Terraform modules & pipelines for easy adoption
Drive architecture decisions around rollout strategies, failure modes & resilience patterns
Use production insights & incident data to shape the reliability roadmap
Embed reliability into the SDLC (design reviews, golden paths, reference implementations)
Contribute through code reviews, documentation, mentoring & design sessions
Qualifications
5+ years of strong backend/platform engineering experience
Proficiency in Java, Kotlin, C#, Go, or Python
Experience building production-grade systems, libraries, or shared tooling
Strong understanding of distributed systems & microservices architecture
Experience working in cloud-native environments (Kubernetes is a plus)
Hands-on implementation of observability (metrics, tracing, logging)
Experience building resilience patterns (retries, circuit breakers, timeouts, graceful degradation)
Strong engineering practices: automated testing, clean code, CI/CD, trunk-based development
Experience treating Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Helm, GitOps) as engineering artefacts
Ability to translate reliability challenges into scalable engineering solutions & APIs
Would be a plus
Experience designing internal developer platforms
Exposure to deployment strategies (blue/green, canary releases)
Experience with performance engineering & load testing
Experience mentoring engineers or leading design initiatives
We offer
- Opportunity to work on bleeding-edge projects
- Work with a highly motivated and dedicated team
- Competitive salary
- Flexible schedule
- Benefits package - medical insurance, sports
- Corporate social events
- Professional development opportunities
- Well-equipped office
