You will lead on-call operations, build world-class observability systems, and drive reliability engineering practices across the organization.

Alongside this, you will collaborate on automation and CI/CD improvements to ensure services are built and operated for scale. We are an engineering-first team that continuously invests in tools, tests, processes, and technology. We consider our people our biggest asset and strive to build a culture of continuous learning and growth.

Support CI/CD and infrastructure automation (Terraform, Kubernetes, pipelines) as part of DevOps responsibilities (20%)

Implement and mature observability practices including SLIs/SLOs, distributed tracing, and APM

Mentor junior engineers in incident management and DevOps best practices

Partner with engineering teams on resilient architecture reviews and reliability improvements
