Senior Site Reliability Engineer

As our Senior Site Reliability Engineer, you’ll own reliability across the Talon.One platform. It’s a hands-on role with broad reach, and you’ll shape how our engineering teams design, measure, and improve the reliability of what they build. You’ll build and evolve our reliability foundations, from observability architecture and SLOs to incident management and production standards. When something breaks, you won’t stop at the fix. You’ll find the root cause and make sure it doesn’t come back.

You’ll automate away operational toil, sharpen the signals our monitoring gives us, and help teams build services that are resilient by design. You’ll treat operations as a software problem, building tools, automation, and reusable capabilities that keep production reliable without wearing people out. If you enjoy building practical systems, setting technical direction, and seeing your work show up as measurable reliability gains across a complex distributed platform, this role is for you.

• Run production workloads on Kubernetes in a major cloud, ideally Google Cloud, including networking, scaling, and capacity planning
• Introduce SLOs and error budgets that engineering teams actually use to prioritize their work
• Build observability with metrics, logs, and traces using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Tempo, Datadog, and OpenTelemetry
• Write production-quality code in at least one language to build internal tools and automation
• Manage infrastructure as code with Terraform and ship changes through GitOps workflows such as ArgoCD
• Build or improve CI/CD and release pipelines, including release gating, rollbacks, and hotfix flows
• Troubleshoot performance issues in distributed systems and lead incidents through to resolution
• Explain reliability trade-offs to engineers and stakeholders, and get changes adopted beyond your own team

• Design our observability end to end across metrics, logs, and traces, from data pipelines and alert strategy to dashboards and cost
• Cut alert noise so every page that wakes someone up is worth acting on
• Co-own the release process together with engineering, from go/no-go gates and release coordination to the automation that checks every release before it reaches customers
• Make deployments safer and more predictable with GitOps and ArgoCD on Kubernetes and Google Cloud
• Build tools and automation that take repetitive operational work off both SRE and product teams
• Improve how we handle incidents, from on-call readiness and severity calls to blameless postmortems and follow-ups that actually get closed
• Trace incidents to their root causes and fix them at the design level, guiding teams on resilient architecture along the wa
