đź“‹ Description
- • Architect, build, and lead the implementation of comprehensive monitoring, logging, and tracing solutions to provide real-time visibility into Replit’s globally distributed infrastructure serving millions of developers.
- • Define, implement, and track Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and Service Level Indicators (SLIs) in collaboration with product and engineering teams, ensuring reliability standards are met while balancing innovation velocity.
- • Lead incident response for high-impact system outages, directing cross-functional teams to rapid resolution, conducting blameless post-mortems, and driving implementation of preventative automation to reduce Mean Time To Recovery (MTTR).
- • Design and maintain infrastructure as code using Terraform or Pulumi to automate provisioning, configuration, and lifecycle management of cloud resources, eliminating manual toil and operational overhead.
- • Optimize performance of large-scale Kubernetes clusters on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), identifying and resolving latency, resource contention, and scalability bottlenecks across global regions.
- • Debug and harden distributed systems by analyzing complex failures across the entire stack—from application code to networking and storage—and implementing long-term fixes to improve system robustness and operability.
- • Review feature and system designs across the engineering organization to ensure reliability, scalability, security, and operational integrity are embedded from inception.
- • Mentor and educate engineers at all levels to cultivate a culture where reliability is a shared ownership and core value, not just an SRE function.
- • Write high-quality, well-tested code in Python or Go to build internal tools, automate operational workflows, and integrate with third-party services.
- • Build and refine runbooks, alerting policies, and self-healing systems that automatically detect and remediate common failure modes without human intervention.
- • Implement capacity planning strategies to anticipate growth, prevent over-provisioning, and ensure consistent performance under varying loads.
- • Contribute to the continuous improvement of CI/CD pipelines to ensure rapid, safe, and reliable deployment of infrastructure and application changes.
- • Maintain and enhance observability platforms including metrics, logs, and traces using industry-standard tools to enable proactive issue detection and root cause analysis.
- • Collaborate closely with core infrastructure and product teams to align system design with operational realities and business objectives.
- • Advocate for and model open, transparent communication practices, ensuring incidents, improvements, and lessons learned are documented and shared across the engineering organization.
🎯 Requirements
- • 8-10 years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering or similar roles (e.g., DevOps, Systems Engineering, Infrastructure Engineering)
- • Strong programming skills in Python or Go, with a track record of writing high-quality, well-tested code
- • Deep understanding of distributed systems, including design, scaling, and maintenance of production services
- • Deep experience with Kubernetes and cloud-native technologies, specifically on Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
- • Proven track record of designing and implementing sophisticated observability solutions (metrics, logging, tracing)
- • Strong incident management skills with experience leading response for complex, high-impact outages
