Staff Site Reliability Engineer
About The Position
The Staff Site Reliability Engineer, Infrastructure role is building a high-scale infrastructure team responsible for owning environments with thousands of nodes. Candidates must have experience operating at this scale and leading infrastructure through significant transformation—especially moving from monoliths to scalable microservices and platform/API architectures. Our current team is shifting from reactive support to proactive engineering. Our product demands reliability and we need someone who understands what that truly means. You’ll help unify a complex infrastructure stack, build systems that guide application teams toward best practices, and drive cross-functional efforts across product, app, and integration teams. If you've led large-scale growth, know how to turn infrastructure chaos into scalable systems, and can show others what "good" looks like—we want to talk. The position will work from our Mountain View, CA office five days per week.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field of study.
- At least 10 years of hands-on coding experience in building internal platforms/tools to support developer experience and operational best practices.
