  • Participate in on-call, incident response, debugging, and durable follow-up work.

  • Partner with platform, storage, networking, security, and workload teams to make infrastructure production-ready.

What we need to see:

  • 8+ years of experience building or operating production infrastructure.

  • Strong programming skills in Python, Go, or similar.
