## About the role

Nearly every company in the world runs on custom software for critical operations like tracking performance metrics, handling support workflows, building admin dashboards, and countless processes you might never have thought of. But most companies don't have the resources to properly invest in these tools, leading to a lot of old, clunky internal software, or worse, teams still stuck in manual and spreadsheet workflows.

## What they're looking for

- Deep experience operating production infrastructure in AWS
- Experience improving reliability for customer-facing SaaS systems
- Strong Kubernetes fundamentals
- Real Terraform or infrastructure-as-code experience
- Good operational judgment around databases, especially Postgres
- Experience building or operating observability systems
