Job Description
We currently have several large-scale projects and are expanding our infrastructure team. Our product is an advanced platform for creating and managing AI agents. It can be deployed directly inside a customer’s infrastructure and delivered as an enterprise solution, while also being available as a SaaS version.
Under the hood, there is real-time voice and telephony, GPU and LLM inference, streaming analytics, and all of this runs both in the cloud and on-prem, including in banking environments. There is a lot of infrastructure; it is complex, interesting, and sometimes at the edge of what is possible. That is why we are looking for a strong SRE who, like us, cares about making systems transparent, reliable, and built the right way.
This is a role for a strong, independent engineer. A Senior SRE with real influence and a voice in how things are built and operated.
You will also handle DevOps tasks for the team, but your main focus and area of expertise should be SRE: reliability, observability, incident management, and performance under load.
Requirements
- 5+ years in SRE/DevOps. You have not just seen production; you have been responsible for the reliability of high-load production systems.
- Deep, practical understanding of Docker and Kubernetes. You have operated them in production, not just used them in tutorials.
- Mature understanding of metrics and alerts, with real hands-on experience writing, tuning, and maintaining them.
- Practical experience with Prometheus, Alertmanager, and Grafana.
- Ability and willingness to build dashboards and make them clear, useful, and easy to work with.
- Experience with SLIs/SLOs, reliability management, incident investigation, and postmortems.
- Experience with load testing and basic capacity planning.
- Python: you can write code and confidently read and modify other people’s code for automation, exporters, tooling, and related tasks.
- Cloud experience with GCP and/or AWS, strong Linux skills, and solid networking knowledge at an operational level.
- DevOps fundamentals: CI/CD and infrastructure as code, including GitHub Actions, Terraform, Ansible, and similar tools.
- Willingness to understand and support the product in customer environments, including on-prem deployments.
- Ownership mindset: you take responsibility for a task, drive it to completion, and think one step ahead.
- Friendly, non-toxic, and pleasant to work with.
- Strong communication with developers: you can clearly and constructively explain your position, defend it when needed, and find common ground.
- Willingness and ability to mentor, teach, and share knowledge with others.
- Analytical mindset: you dig down to the root cause instead of just treating symptoms.
- Proactivity: you would rather prevent an outage than heroically fight it later.
- Strong attention to detail and reliability.
