About The Role

As a Staff Site Reliability Engineer within the Core Reliability & Observability team, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the company’s observability strategy and ensuring our platform remains reliable, debuggable, and scalable.

What You Will Do

  • Lead the observability strategy across the platform, with an emphasis on building scalable, developer-friendly logging and tracing capabilities.
  • Identify and lead large-scale cross-cutting reliability initiatives, including improvements to our incident detection, response, and postmortem analysis capabilities.
  • Take part in the on-call rotation, and actively contribute to improving our on-call experience by refining alerting, reducing noise, and ensuring actionable telemetry.
  • Serve as a mentor and technical coach to senior engineers, helping elevate the craft of reliability engineering across the company.
  • Influence strategic decisions by providing technical guidance to leadership and representing the observability discipline in architectural reviews and platform discussions.
