Staff Site Reliability Engineer

Details

As a Staff Site Reliability Engineer, you will join the Government SRE team and own the technical reliability of government environments, as well as the coordination of compliant and efficient deployments.

• Own and coordinate government environment releases, driving process improvements to enhance release pipeline efficiency, reliability, and visibility.
• Understand product architecture and service dependencies to manage risk and implement effective testing strategies.
• Partner with engineering, product, SecOps, compliance, and leadership teams to align priorities, define testing strategies, and resolve challenges.
• Ensure infrastructure and deployments meet FedRAMP, government regulations, and industry standards while maintaining required release documentation and risk assessments.

• Multi-cloud experience with AWS and GCP; AWS expertise is preferred.
• Experience with at least one primary programming language, such as Python, Go, or Ruby, and proficiency in Bash scripting.
• Familiarity with GitOps frameworks, infrastructure-as-code tooling such as Terraform or Pulumi, and deployment strategies including blue-green, rolling, and canary deployments.
• Experience with industry-standard observability stacks such as Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, and OpenTelemetry.
• Experience with incident management processes.
• Proven experience implementing and supporting FedRAMP, security, risk management, and compliance processes for software releases.
