Senior Site Reliability Engineer (Remote)
What's in store for you:
You'll be solving complex challenges and maintaining our own infrastructure with 60PB+ monthly data traffic. Here are its scale and maturity in numbers:
- 6PB+ Ceph storage
- 60PB+ monthly data traffic through our systems
- 300k+ service requests/sec processed
- 500k+ Kafka messages/sec streamed
Your day-to-day:
Own and evolve Webshare's production infrastructure - lead the migration from Docker Swarm to Kubernetes (or hybrid K8s + Ansible).
Maintain high availability across hundreds of servers and ~50 services.
Drive observability in cooperation with the development team.
Establish and enforce IaC practices, CI/CD pipeline reliability, and change management processes.
Participate in the on-call rotation alongside backend developers.
Respond to and lead incident resolution, run post-mortems, and drive systematic remediation.
Contribute platform tooling that improves developer experience and reduces infrastructure toil.
Keep backend engineers informed and capable - no silos, shared infrastructure ownership.
Your skills & experiences:
Have built and operated highly available infrastructure at a comparable scale - hundreds of servers, dozens of services, real production load.
Hands-on K8s in self-hosted / bare-metal environments.
Confident with Infrastructure as Code.
Have owned CI/CD pipelines end-to-end (GitLab CI or equivalent).
Have been on call in a production environment.
Proactive - surfaces problems before being asked, keeps the team informed without prompting.
Scripting and development skills.
NICE TO HAVE REQUIREMENTS:
Led at least one major infrastructure migration - planned, executed, and stabilised it.
Python and/or Go familiarity - backend is Python, edge services are Go.
Exposure to proxy, networking-heavy infrastructure.
Previous experience in a small team where developers shared infrastructure responsibility.
Familiarity with edge clusters or split compute/edge architectures.
