About the role
We’re looking for a highly skilled Site Reliability Engineer to join our growing engineering organization. In this role, you’ll be a key player in designing, implementing, and maintaining the infrastructure and tooling that powers our mission-critical systems.

You will manage sensitive data through secure secret handling, maintain core platform components (systems, messaging, databases), and oversee packaging workflows and internal repositories.

A strong focus on observability is key, with responsibility for monitoring, logging, metrics, and alerting. You will lead incident response and root cause analysis, drive continuous improvements while promote automation, reliability, and solid engineering practices in collaboration with other teams. The role also includes flexible working hours according to business needs.
