• Our Cloud Operations team is seeking a Senior DevOps & Site Reliability Engineer who will play a critical role in ensuring the reliability, performance, and scalability of our diverse SaaS applications
• This role is a specialized hybrid, bridging the gap between legacy VM-based architectures and modern cloud-native standards through aggressive automation and development-focused operations
• Unlike a traditional SRE, this role is deeply integrated with the software development lifecycle, focusing on the consolidation and optimization of platform operations
• You will be responsible for building the CI/CD frameworks, self-service tools, and AI-driven automation that allow our engineering teams to move faster while maintaining rock-solid stability
• Your mission is to maximize the ROI of our existing infrastructure by “automating away” manual toil
• On-call coverage will be required on a weekly rotation basis
• In this role, you will be the technical anchor for a global platform footprint that includes a mix of Azure IaaS/PaaS, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Kubernetes, and various data platforms. Your day will consist of:
• Intelligent Automation & DevOps: Identifying manual “toil” and replacing it with automated workflows for monitoring, change management, and routine administration of large-scale VM environments to ensure a positive ROI
• AI-Enhanced Operations: Leading the integration of AI tools for automated code reviews, development frameworks, and predictive log analysis to drive departmental velocity and efficiency
• Scalable CI/CD & Provisioning: Designing and maintaining “self-service” deployment frameworks and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Bamboo) using Infrastructure as Code (Bicep, Terraform)
• Strategic ROI Projects: Evaluating platform components to determine the most cost-effective path: automating the current state or migrating features to modern, shared architectures
• Unified Observability: Designing and maintaining a comprehensive observability stack across Azure and GCP (metrics, logs, traces) to identify performance bottlenecks and proactively address system defects
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with engineering, security and operations teams to ensure new features are “born” with reliability, security and automated delivery in mind; Ensure adherence to security best practices and compliance standards (SOC2, HIPAA, ISO 27001) and operational excellence with cost efficiency
• Root Cause Analysis & Forensics: Investigating complex performance defects by following log trails across web, application, and database tiers (SQL Server, MongoDB, MySQL)
• Governance & Security: Ensuring all platforms meet security standards (SOC2, HIPAA, ISO 27001) through automated policy enforcement across Azure and GCP
