Senior SRE (ACDC Platform / Infrastructure Automation)

What You Will Do

• Architect and Build Automation Solutions: Your primary focus will be on designing and developing robust automation using Ansible. You will create playbooks, roles, and workflows that manage a massive, enterprise-scale infrastructure, effectively eliminating operational toil.
• Own the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Lifecycle: You will manage and enhance IaC solutions using tools like Terraform, Ansible, and SaltStack, ensuring that the entire infrastructure is versioned, repeatable, and scalable.
• Engineer for Ultimate Reliability: You will design, develop, and operate essential backend services, with a relentless focus on improving reliability, scalability, and performance. This includes building proactive observability solutions (monitoring, logging, alerting) to detect and resolve issues before they impact customers.
• Become a Technical Leader and Mentor: You will act as a subject matter expert for the core platform systems, guiding other engineers and sharing best practices in automation and reliability across the organization.
• Solve the Toughest Problems: You will collaborate with software, infrastructure, and platform teams to troubleshoot complex production issues, acting as a key technical resource during incident response and participating in an on-call rotation.
