Duties & Responsibilities:

• Build and manage reliable, scalable infrastructure using infrastructure-as-code principles


• Automate operational processes — monitoring, deployment, incident response, and recovery


• Instrument and monitor systems to proactively identify and fix bottlenecks and failure points


• Participate in incident responses, and postmortems


• Drive improvements in service reliability, performance, and observability


• Collaborate with software engineers to embed reliability into application design and deployment


• Continuously improve CI/CD pipelines to support faster, safer deployments 

Requirements & Qualifications:

• 3+ years of experience in SRE, DevOps, or infrastructure engineering roles


• Strong experience with both on-prem and cloud infrastructure management


• Proficiency with scripting or programming (Python, Go, Bash, etc.)


• Experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)


• Solid understanding of Linux internals, networking, and system performance tuning


• Deep experience with monitoring and alerting tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, etc.)


• Familiarity with CI/CD tooling (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, etc.)
