- Hands-on with Kubernetes, Terraform, and observability platforms

- Experience leading incident response in production environments

- Strong understanding of distributed systems


What You'll Bring

- Curiosity to dig into systems and turn findings into shipped improvements

- Strong written communication and ability to explain technical decisions

- A test-and-learn mindset; you ship fast, measure, and iterate

- Comfort working asynchronously across time zones


What We Offer

- Fully remote, flexible work hours

- Performance-based bonus structure

- Annual learning & development stipend

- Health and wellness benefits (varies by location)

- Opportunity to work on high-scale, real-world impact projects
