Lead/Senior Site Reliability Engineering

Lead/Senior Site Reliability Engineering Work Location : UK (EMEA) – Remote Shift timings: Regular UK shift Examples of projects our team works on: ● Design, deploy and scale our Prometheus architecture to handle 100+ million active series and beyond. ● Deploy and operate large, high-performance ElasticSearch clusters holding 2000+TB of data. ● Deploy and grow high-throughput data pipelines built on Kafka, handling hundreds of thousands of events per second. ● Design and build an alerting system that allows engineering teams to construct alerts from multiple data sources and alerting workflows. ● Write libraries and APIs that give engineers self-service access to our monitoring, logging, and other observability systems. ● Use Terraform to deploy public and private cloud infrastructure. You are an ideal candidate if you: ● Have 5+ years’ experience designing, deploying and operating mid to large size distributed systems on VMs or bare metal machines running Linux (we run Debian and Ubuntu). ● Have 2+ years’ experience developing with languages like Ruby, Python, Go, Scala, or Bash. ● Are excited by the challenge of solving difficult problems in large distributed systems that deal with huge amounts of data. ● Want to work on a highly autonomous team that cares deeply about quality and customer experience. ● Are curious, learn fast and feel comfortable diving into unfamiliar code and systems to solve problems. ● Understand the value of observability and can work with other teams to help them better monitor their services. ● Are willing to be part of a production on-call rotation. ● Have direct experience with the following technologies (or similar): Elasticsearch Logstash Kibana (ELK) stack, Kafka, Prometheus/Thanos/Cortex, Graphite, Ansible, Terraform, Consul. ● Have strong experience in building out solitons based on Software engineering best practices.
