This is a software engineering role, where you’ll be building systems and the culture that removes manual on-call work, fixes the underlying causes of alerts, and gives engineers a clear view of system health. You'll work with every team and work with leadership to decide where things go..\nResponsibilities\nDesign and build software that removes manual on-call intervention and recurring sources of toil.\n\nLead infrastructure projects end to end.\n\nFind where cost-driven limits create latency or reliability problems, and fix the trade-off.\n\nBuild tooling that shows system health across our GCP projects at a glance.\n\nDefine SLOs with product teams and raise the bar on reliability practice across engineering.\n\nPioneer reliability engineering for agent-first production systems.\n\nWhat We’re Looking For\nTechnical Ability: Solid software engineering fundamentals and raw coding ability. Production code is your default way of solving a problem.\n\nInfrastructure Depth: Hands-on experience running GCP (or a comparable cloud) and Kubernetes at production scale, including autoscaling and capacity management.\n\nAutomation First: You have built tools and automation that other engineers depended on, not just runbooks that describe a manual fix.\n\nOwnership: Comfortable driving ambiguous, cross-team reliability work on your own, from diagnosis to a shipped fix.\n\n-\nMaterial Security is a remote-first workplace with an office in San Francisco, California.\nBy clicking \"Apply for this Job\", you acknowledge that you have read the California Candidate Privacy Notice Regarding Use of Personal Information and hereby agree to its terms.\nCompensation at Material Security is determined by a range of factors, including but not limited to the individual’s particular combination of knowledge, skills, competencies, and experience. The projected annual compensation range for this position is $213,000-$229,000.\nEqual Opportunity Employer Statement\nMaterial Security is an equal opportunity employer.
