What is the role We are Cloud Infrastructure SREs that integrate, scale, and evolve multi-cloud infrastructure across 4 Cloud Service Providers, 70+ globally distributed regions, and tens of thousands of hosts to power Elastic Cloud. We tackle hard problems at scale through automation, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), configuration management, and purpose-built software that eliminates toil and improves reliability
We're also a team that grows people as well as systems. If that challenge genuinely excites you, we'd love to hear from you
What you will be doing Engineering software to automate large-scale systems — building internal tools and services, not just running scripts
Optimizing the reliability and lifecycle of hosts across multiple cloud providers
Strengthening our observability posture — crafting alerting and monitoring systems that drive incident prevention over incident response
Scaling global infrastructure and evolving the infrastructure management processes to meet growing demand
Contributing to code reviews, sharing your work, planning what we need to do next, and both mentoring and being mentored by teammates
Being part of a balanced SRE on-call rotation: responding to incidents, improving runbooks, participating in postmortems, and championing reliability improvements
What you bring Experience building software with Golang. You are also comfortable reviewing others' code and offering constructive feedback
Production experience operating large-scale cloud compute (hundreds of hosts or more) via automated workflows
Deep experience with Linux systems — you are at home in the terminal debugging at the OS level
Proficiency working with containerized workloads in production
A customer-first, systems-thinking approach to operational problems — you care about root causes, not just symptoms
Comfortable working across time zones in both real-time and asynchronous contexts
You contribute clear and maintainable documentation such as software designs, runbooks, architecture diagrams/decisions, postmortems, etc..
You communicate project status regu
