About the Position
The Role While the title is SRE, this role aligns with Systems Engineering in a Platform team principles: treating infrastructure as a product, focusing on developer needs, reducing operational toil, and creating self-service capabilities that abstract complexity so teams can focus on building features.
As Senior Reliability Engineer you will:
Build and Maintain the Internal Developer Platform

- Design and implement developer-facing tools, APIs, and automation that enable application teams to deploy, scale, and operate services independently.
Define and Maintain Platform Operations
- Manage and optimize cloud resources, Kubernetes clusters, databases, and networking for reliability, scalability, and cost optimization.
- Establish SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets to balance reliability with feature velocity.
- Design and maintain observability solutions for real-time visibility and proactive issue detection.
- Implement alerting strategies that reduce noise and focus on actionable signals.
- Lead incident response, conduct blameless postmortems and drive continuous improvement.
Enhance Developer Experience and Drive Platform Strategy
- Partner with application teams (platform customers) to understand their workflows and pain points, gather feedback, and prioritize improvements aligned with business objectives.
- Create and maintain documentation, runbooks, and knowledge bases that reduce knowledge silos and enable self-service.
- Drive decisions through written formats (RFCs, ADRs) that document architectural choices.
- Measure platform success through developer productivity metrics, adoption rates, and toil reduction.
