  • Solid experience in DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), or production operations environments.
  • Strong knowledge of cloud platforms, particularly AWS, with familiarity in infrastructure monitoring and cloud-native operations.
  • Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, automation tools, Linux systems, and scripting technologies.
  • Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills with the ability to investigate complex production issues.
  • Understanding of logging, metrics, distributed tracing, and modern observability practices.
  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills with the ability to work effectively across cross-functional teams.
  • Ability to balance operational priorities while driving continuous improvement initiatives.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary package aligned with experience and expertise.
  • Fully remote work opportunity within the United States.
  • Exposure to large-scale digital product engineering environments and global projects.
  • Opportunity to work with modern cloud, DevOps, and observability technologies.
