Responsibilities

Shaping our infrastructure roadmap — developing a clear vision for where our infra needs to go and driving progress toward it
Building security and operational foundations — laying the groundwork for sustainable growth
Improving reliability — reducing MTTR, establishing SLOs, bringing rigor to how we manage outages
Empowering product teams — you'll build the platforms and tools that let them own their systems end-to-end

Qualification

Required

5+ years in infrastructure / SRE / platform engineering roles, with breadth across infra disciplines. We're looking for an infra generalist, not a deep specialist in one narrow area
Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (GCP preferred) and infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Pulumi, etc.)
Strong software engineering fundamentals. You approach infrastructure with a builder's mindset
Technical breadth across infra domains: networking, security, observability, CI/CD, database operations, containerization. We don't expect you to be an expert in everything, just knowledgeable enough to be effective on a small team without other specialists
Experience with consumer-facing, revenue-critical systems, though you don't need FAANG-scale experience

Preferred

You've led infrastructure evolution at a growing startup, not just maintained existing systems. Ideally on a small team (<5 infra engineers)
You're excited by environments with little structure — where you're expected to understand the bigger picture, cut through ambiguity, and figure out what matters most

Benefits

Medical and dental insurance with 100% of employee premiums covered
15 vacation days & ~20 paid holidays each year (including two weeks at the end-of-year)
Free membership to OneMedical
$600/year internet stipend
$1,000 reimbursable stipend for education and training outside of work
Up to $1,200/year student loan repayment assistance
401(k) and optional HSA/FSA
Humble, thoughtful, smart, fun colleagues
