Site Reliability Engineer

key responsibilities include** - Build and operate the platform our services run on - GKE clusters, the controllers that extend them, and the Terraform that defines our cloud. - Own the path from commit to production - CI/CD, GitOps, and the progressive-delivery patterns that turn a merge into a safe release. - Strengthen the networking and routing layer - traffic management on top of the VPC, firewalls, and network policies that keep it safe and predictable. - Govern access and guardrails - IAM across every layer, policy-as-code, and break-glass paths - so teams move fast within safe defaults rather than waiting on tickets. - Grow reliability and observability - alert hygiene, runbooks, SLOs, and the metrics and tracing that show how the platform behaves in production. - Enable product teams and raise the bar - make production readiness the default, and drive healthy adoption of the standards and docs you would rather share than gatekeep. **Requirements** - Kubernetes fundamentals: a solid grasp of controllers, core components, and CNI and networking - depth in the domain matters more than any single tool (GKE a plus). - Infrastructure as code and delivery: Terraform, Helm or Kustomize, CI/CD and GitOps (ArgoCD), and the traffic-management and progressive-delivery mechanisms that move releases out safely. - Networking and access: routing fundamentals, the VPC, firewall, and network-policy primitives beneath it, and IAM and access management at different levels. - Operational depth: monitoring fundamentals (a clear view of when to reach for metrics versus tracing, and experience with an open-source observability stack), strong troubleshooting across distributed systems, and solid Unix/Linux. - Agentic development mindset: you use AI agents actively in your own work, knowing where they add leverage and where human judgement is non-negotiable. - Collaboration and judgement: you do your best work on large, cross-cutting projects, communicate openly, and stay opinionated but open to discussion - reaching for the right tool over your own creation. **It would also be music to our ears if you have** - Familiarity with GCP and an observability stack with Prometheus, Thanos, and Grafana. - Experience running containerised platforms at scale. - Service mesh experience with Cilium eBPF, Linkerd, or Istio. - Familiarity with platform building blocks like cert-manager, external-secrets, or external-dns. **Equal opportunity employer** We believe that bringing people together from different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives makes for a healthy workplace, a more successful business and a better world. We value diversity and encourage everyone to come and soundtrack the world with us. **Application** Ready to make the world _feel_ your work? Please apply, in English.
