Description

  • Design and evolve cloud architecture on Google Cloud Platform, including networking, interconnects, IAM, and high-availability topology, expressed as code with Terraform.
  • Build and own CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure-as-code changes, including planning, review, testing, policy guardrails, drift detection, and progressive rollout.
  • Develop self-serve platform capabilities and paved paths that let engineers provision infrastructure through a golden-path model.
  • Strengthen observability across metrics, logs, traces, and alerting using tools such as Prometheus, Thanos, Grafana, Loki, Tempo, and Alertmanager.
  • Operate GKE clusters and the workloads running on them, including Helm-packaged services, message brokers, and data stores.
  • Participate in a follow-the-sun on-call rotation to monitor alerts, triage issues, join and declare incidents, and drive debugging and escalation.
  • Lead structured incident response, blameless post-mortems, and follow-up actions that close the loop on operational issues.
  • Embed SRE practices such as SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, and capacity planning into infrastructure operations.
  • Partner closely with SRE and database specialists on the operation of core infrastructure and data services.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in a DevOps, Platform/Infrastructure, or SRE role operating large-scale, high-availability production systems.
  • Deep hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform as the primary cloud, including landing zones, networking, IAM, and high-availability design.
  • Strong Infrastructure-as-Code experience with Terraform across large multi-environment codebases, using GitOps and least-privilege principles.
  • Proven experience building CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure-as-code, including automated plan/apply, code review, policy-as-code, drift detection, and safe rollout.
  • Significant production experience with Kubernetes, ideally GKE, and deploying workloads with Helm.
  • Strong cloud networking fundamentals across VPCs, routing, load balancing, DNS, TLS, and interconnects.
  • Hands-on experience with observability tooling such as Prometheus, Thanos, Grafana, Loki, Tempo, and Alertmanager.
  • Operator-level familiarity with PostgreSQL and message brokers such as RabbitMQ or RedPanda in production.
  • Understanding of SRE practices, including SLOs, error budgets, capacity planning, and a platform-as-a-product mindset.
  • Strong incident management experience, including debugging under pressure, escalation, documentation, and post-mortems.
  • Willingness to participate in a follow-the-sun on-call rotation from APAC hours and work effectively in an async-first distributed team.
  • Bonus points for experience with OPA/Conftest, Checkov, tflint, Atlantis, Backstage, Tilt, Alloy, Rootly, Go, Linux, Docker/containerd, SOC 2, secrets management, audit logging, trading/brokerage, or low-latency systems.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary with stock options.
  • Health benefits.
  • One-time USD $500 new hire home-office setup stipend.
  • USD $150 monthly stipend via a Brex Card.
  • Opportunity to work on a globally distributed team in a flexible remote environment.
