Senior Site Reliability Engineer - Remote EST

Job Description
Join us as a Senior SRE where you'll bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI innovation and rock-solid production stability. Working independently from the East Coast, you will collaborate with our global DevOps teams to automate 70% of your workload while owning the reliability of our AWS/Kubernetes environment. This is a role for a production-hardened engineer who wants a strong voice in technology decisions and the opportunity to build the future of AI-driven operations.
This is a fully remote role, however, you must be physically located in EST and be willing and able to work EST hours Monday-Friday and participate in on-call rotations. We cannot consider candidates located in CST, MST or PST at this time.
Base salary for this role ranges from $160,000 - $210,000 per year.
Job Requirements

• 5+ years of experience as a Senior SRE or Production Engineer (this is a hard requirement).
• Deep Production Expertise: You must have extensive experience managing live, high-traffic SaaS environments; developer-only backgrounds without ops experience will not be a fit.
• Cloud & Orchestration: Proven mastery of Kubernetes and AWS in production settings.
• Coding/Scripting: Advanced proficiency in Python (preferred) or Go for automation; we need more than just Bash skills.
• AI Knowledge: A strong understanding of or direct experience with AI/LLM technologies.
• Observability: Hands-on experience with Datadog for monitoring and incident response.
• Autonomy: Ability to work independently without direct daily oversight, managing production incidents and on-call responsibilities.
• Time Zone: Located in the East Coast time zone to provide coverage overlap with our global teams.

Job Responsibilities

• Design, build, and operate production-grade Kubernetes infrastructure on AWS
• Developing Ai Agents to handle incidents and root cause analisys
• Build and maintain GitOps-based CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and ArgoCD
• Develop internal DevOps tooling and developer self-service platforms
• Own monitoring, observability, and operational excellence using Datadog
• Collaborate with engineering teams to improve delivery speed and reliability
