  • Contribute to the design, implementation, and maintenance of Greenlight's core cloud infrastructure and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) practices to ensure high availability, scalability, and performance.
  • Develop, maintain, and optimize our cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (primarily Terraform) and other automation tools.
  • Collaborate closely with development and security teams to embed SRE principles into the software development lifecycle, promoting secure and reliable coding practices.
  • Design and implement robust monitoring, logging, and alerting solutions to provide comprehensive visibility into system health.
  • Actively participate in and support incident response, performing deep-dive root cause analysis, and contributing to actionable blameless postmortems to prevent recurrence.
  • Identify and implement architectural improvements to enhance system reliability, resilience, and operational efficiency.
  • Automate operational tasks and processes to reduce toil and improve efficiency.
  • Research, evaluate, and advocate for new technologies and tools that can improve our operational posture and efficiency.
  • Enhance existing services and applications to increase availability, reliability, and scalability in a microservices environment.
  • Build and improve engineering tooling, processes, and standards to enable faster, more consistent, more reliable, and highly repeatable application delivery.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience in automating operational tasks using scripting languages (e.g., Python, Go, Bash) and automation platforms.
  • Expertise in designing and implementing comprehensive monitoring, logging, and alerting solutions (e.g., Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack).
  • Solid understanding of incident response best practices, with experience in troubleshooting and resolving complex production issues.
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems, microservices architectures, and containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes/EKS).
  • Exceptional analytical and problem-solving skills, with a track record of debugging complex issues in production environments.
  • Excellent communication, collaboration, and interpersonal skills. Ability to clearly articulate technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
