Tech layoffs? Doing more with less? Welcome to vibe coding.

The market’s changed. Profit margins are king, and resilience often takes a backseat.

But the smartest companies know resilience is the secret sauce for customer retention. And if you bake it in early, you build faster too.

This role is for the folks who want in on that.

The CEO’s words: “Reliability isn’t a cost or just a support job. It’s core to customer satisfaction and retention.” So, they’re investing hard in SRE, aiming to triple their user base in three years. They’re global already, with millions of users.

On the ground, you’re backed by strategy shaped by an ex-Google SRE, so you know it’s done the right way.

The stack? Mostly cloud-native (GCP and AWS), thousands of microservices, Kubernetes-centric, Java and Go dominant but open to new languages. No legacy migrations here; it’s all about solving modern problems with modern tech and best practices.

And here’s a kicker: zero on-call. Other teams handle PagerDuty, so your nights stay your own. You’ll work a hybrid schedule, three days in the office, but nobody’s counting hours.

The team’s solid: big enough to support you, small enough to give you influence. Plus, an open-door policy means you can chat with anyone from the CTO to product squads without awkward politics.

What impact will you have? That’s up to you as there are multiple roles open. Fancy chaos engineering? AI strategy? More software-heavy or infrastructure-focused work? It’s a target-rich environment for anyone who loves the engineering side of SRE.

Experience-wise: maybe you’re already an SRE looking for your people, a Platform or DevOps engineer ready to pivot, or a software engineer passionate about resilience and performance tuning. If you see yourself in any of those, let’s talk. Just know you'll be close to the code in this role so will need good backend software fundamentals.
