As a Site Reliability Engineer, you will be responsible for: Operational Excellence & Incident Management

  • Maintain and monitor production systems for availability, latency, and performance.
  • Lead incident response efforts, including communication, resolution, and postmortem documentation.
  • Design and implement health checks, alerting systems, and automated remediation workflows.
  • Drive root cause analysis and implement permanent resolutions for recurring issues.

Observability & Insights

  • Set up and maintain full observability stacks (logging, metrics, tracing) using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, OpenTelemetry, or ELK.
  • Analyze telemetry and logs to identify trends, anomalies, and opportunities for improvement.
  • Conduct post-incident reviews and use insights to inform future engineering investments.

Performance & Systems Optimization

  • Tune and optimize distributed systems, including AKKA.NET actors, for performance and resource efficiency.
  • Work with developers to evolve architecture and improve system throughput, latency, and stability.
  • Optimize PostgreSQL performance, queries, and maintenance strategies.

CI/CD & Automation

  • Design and maintain modern CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Azure Pipelines, or GitLab CI.
  • Automate deployment, testing, and rollback processes to reduce friction and increase deployment frequency.
  • Standardize infrastructure as code practices across environments.
