Senior Site Reliability Engineer (SRE Culture & Developer Platform)

Build the reliability culture, not just the incident response. 🚀

Join a profitable, growing product company transforming how vacation-rental hosts manage their businesses. With ~160 people and a mature engineering organisation, the company is focused on product stability, collaboration and sustainable growth. As a Senior Site Reliability Engineer, you’ll help evolve Platform from reactive operations to a proactive, data-driven SRE culture. You’ll code, automate and enable teams to build and run reliable services autonomously.

Working with ~75 microservices, 800 concurrent containers and 3B monthly requests, you’ll strengthen observability, define reliability targets and help build an internal developer platform that makes infrastructure and deployments easier. Join a small, senior team and make a measurable impact on a product used by customers worldwide.

💼 Responsibilities

• Drive the transition from reactive DevOps to a preventive, scalable SRE model, embedding SRE practices and increasing engineering teams’ operational autonomy.
• Define and evolve SLIs, SLOs and error budgets to support better engineering and product decisions, while improving production reliability through automation, resilient design and sustainable operations.
• Design and enhance observability, monitoring and alerting across a complex microservices environment.
• Build and evolve an internal developer platform that enables product teams to deploy and manage infrastructure safely and independently.
• Automate repetitive operational work through hands-on coding, primarily with Python or similar languages, and contribute to infrastructure-as-code and the continuous evolution of the cloud platform.
• Solve complex reliability challenges across Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, messaging systems and databases.

🔎 Profile Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering, with a clear preventive and reliability-first mindset.
• Hands-on experience building automation and writing production-quality code in Python or a similar language.
• Strong practical knowledge of Kubernetes and cloud environments; experience with Google Cloud Platform is highly valuable.
• Solid experience with infrastructure as code, ideally using Pulumi or comparable tooling.
• Proven ability to design and improve observability, monitoring and actionable alerting.
• Practical knowledge of SLIs, SLOs and error budgets—and the judgment to use them to drive meaningful improvements.
• A systems-thinking approach: you look beyond immediate fixes and design solutions that last.
• Experience collaborating with software engineering teams and helping them adopt reliable, autonomous ways of working.
• Knowledge of Kafka, RabbitMQ, PostgreSQL, SQL Server or similar distributed systems is a plus.
• Fluent English at C1 level, as you will work in an international environment.

💰 Benefits

• 100% remote work model, with offices in Barcelona available for workshops and occasional meetings.
• 25 vacation days per year.
• Private health insurance, with travel, dental, and psychological coverage.
• Flexible compensation through meal and transport vouchers.
• Full equipment and setup to work from home.
• Flexible working hours, with a start time between 8:00 and 10:00 and no strict time tracking.
• Reduced working hours in August: 35 hours per week.
• Referral program; for recommending candidates.
• Possibility of relocation and visa support for professionals joining from outside Spain.
