We are looking for a Senior Site Reliability to join our dynamic and growing Platform Engineering team.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own reliability outcomes for Tango’s cloud platform (availability, latency, performance, and scalability) across production and non-production environments.
- Design, implement, and operate SLOs/SLIs, error budgets, and reliability reporting; drive prioritization of reliability work with Engineering and Product.
- Build and maintain observability foundations: metrics, logging, tracing, dashboards, and alerting that are actionable and reduce noise.
- Lead incident response and post-incident reviews (blameless RCAs); implement remediation and prevention work to measurably reduce repeat incidents.
- Engineer and evolve CI/CD and release safety practices (progressive delivery, canary/blue-green, automated rollbacks, change controls).
- Improve infrastructure-as-code and environment consistency; standardize and harden platform components.
- Partner with Security and Compliance to support secure operations, vulnerability remediation, audits, and customer trust requirements.
- Optimize cloud cost and capacity through right-sizing, autoscaling, and performance tuning; track and report on cost drivers.
- Enable engineering teams with reliable internal tooling, runbooks, and self-service operational capabilities.
- Mentor engineers on reliability best practices, operational excellence, and automation.
About You:
- 8+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, or Production Engineering supporting distributed SaaS applications.
- Strong background in Linux systems engineering, networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, load balancing), and troubleshooting in production.
- Proficiency with at least one programming language used for automation (e.g., Python, Go, or Java) and strong scripting skills.
- Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or GCP) including compute, storage, networking, and IAM.
- Deep experience with infrastructure-as-code and configuration management (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible).
- Expertise in containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes) and operating cloud-native services.
- Strong observability practice with tools such as Prometheus/Grafana, Datadog, New Relic, OpenTelemetry, ELK/Splunk, or equivalent.
- Demonstrated incident management leadership, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement mindset.
- Experience designing and operating CI/CD pipelines and release management practices (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, ArgoCD).
- Ability to work cross-functionally with Engineering, Product, Support, and Security; clear written and verbal communication.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
- Relevant certifications are a plus (e.g., AWS/Azure/GCP, Kubernetes CKA/CKAD, ITIL, or security-focused certifications)
