We’re a hardworking and close-knit group with a software-driven culture (yep, even our GTM team understands and loves this technology)! We bring integrity to all our interactions, fostering confidence in decision making - trusting and respecting each voice on our team, every day.\nCompany Values:\nAgency: Everyone should have the capability, freedom, and confidence to bring about changes to our business and product. Organizational processes exist to clearly define our goals, but not restrict how progress is made.\n\nCollaboration: Success is defined in various dimensions and no single person can be an expert in all of them. Without valuing the opinions of others, finding compromises, and sharing mutual trust and respect, you cannot arrive at the best possible solution.\n\nOpen-mindedness: Without asking questions, testing assumptions, and questioning our pre-existing biases we risk operating within an echo-chamber. We celebrate the representation of diverse perspectives and backgrounds as a catalyst for creating an inclusive work environment that everyone can appreciate.\n\nAbout the Role:\nAs a Site Reliability Engineer, you will play a critical role in ensuring the reliability, availability, and performance of our systems. You will be responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining scalable infrastructure solutions to support our growing customer base. This is an exciting opportunity to work in a fast-paced environment and contribute to the success of a company bringing a Google-inspired authorization system to companies around the globe.\nWhat you’ll own:\nDesign, implement, and maintain highly available and scalable infrastructure solutions for our projects, products, and customers.\n\nMonitor and analyze system performance, identifying and resolving bottlenecks and issues to ensure optimal performance and reliability.\n\nAutomate infrastructure deployment and configuration management processes.\n\nContinuously improve system reliability, security, and efficiency through proactive monitoring, capacity planning, and performance tuning.\n\nTroubleshoot and resolve complex infrastructure and application issues in production and test environments.\n\nCollaborate with software engineering teams to design and implement systems that are resilient, scalable, and secure.\n\nParticipate in on-call rotation and respond to production incidents in a timely manner.\n\nDocument system configurations, troubleshooting procedures, and operational guidelines.\n\nWhat you bring:\nProven experience as a Site Reliability Engineer or in a similar role.\n\nStrong understanding of networking, operating systems, and cloud infrastructure.\n\nExperience with Site Reliability Engineering, System Design, and Distributed Computing.\n\nExperience in various programming languages - we currently have SDKs for NodeJS, Java, Python, Ruby, and Go.\n\nExperience with containerization technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes.\n\nKnowledge of infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform and Pulumi.\n\nFamiliarity with monitoring and logging tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack).\n\nExperience with lower-level implementation details of relational databases (bonus if you have have experience with distributed SQL databased like Google Cloud Spanner or CockroachDB).\n\nExperience working with Git and GitHub.\n\nExperience with continuous integration and deployment systems.\n\nStrong problem-solving and troubleshooting skills.\n\nExcellent communication and collaboration abilities.\n\nExtra shine:\nExperience with Authorization systems.\n\nLife at AuthZed:\nOpportunity to work with cutting-edge technology in a rapidly growing sector.\n\nA supported environment where your ideas lead to real impact.\n\nCompetitive salary based on experience.\n\nStock options at an early-stage startup.\n\nComprehensive benefits including healthcare (US-based) and other insurance.\n\nA full remote and flexible schedule to accommodate different timezones\n\nTwice-yearly travel for team offsites focused on team bonding, collaboration, and having fun!","description_format":"text","description_chars":4510,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Flexible schedule","Stock options"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"},{"name":"Canada","iso":"CA","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Identity Management","Developer Tools"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-06-03T19:30:33Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":10,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.349,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":134,"expected_fill_days":35,"reasons":["conf:3","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-16T05:45:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":195000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/authzed-sr-site-reliability-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/authzed-sr-site-reliability-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-16T19:25:29Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":4927,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-17T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":34980},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=34980"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fauthzed-sr-site-reliability-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fauthzed-sr-site-reliability-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fauthzed-sr-site-reliability-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/authzed-sr-site-reliability-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fauthzed-sr-site-reliability-engineer"}]}
