## About the role

We're looking for a Site Reliability Engineer to take the lead on scaling our operational resilience as we grow. You’ll own the stability, observability, and debugging workflows that keep our systems running smoothly. You'll be the go-to person for untangling complex failures in real time, designing tools that turn chaos into clarity, and helping us shift from reactive to proactive operations.

## What they're looking for

- 3+ years of hands-on experience debugging production systems (logs, traces, incidents, etc.)
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to dive into unfamiliar backend codebases
- Strong Go and Kubernetes experience
- Familiarity with observability and monitoring tools (e.g., Grafana, Prometheus, Sentry)
- Clear, calm communication under pressure — especially during live incidents
