The Company
Databox, a fast-growing SaaS company that helps other companies monitor and improve their business performance, is looking for an experienced Senior DevOps/SRE Engineer, who understands modern cloud-native infrastructure.
The Team
Our infrastructure runs in AWS cloud using Kubernetes clusters. We have many services built with Docker and deployed daily via CI/CD pipelines. Engineers use ChatOps from Slack to deploy services to different environments. Grafana with Prometheus is our choice for managing ever-growing streams of monitoring data. PostgreSQL is used for our main database and our data warehouse. Our warehouse is growing rapidly and scaling strategies are becoming more and more challenging. We are always exploring new tools and ideas as our needs evolve, and we love working alongside people who are willing to try new things. Mentoring, code reviews, writing tests, and engaging in blameless postmortems are only some of our core engineering principles. We are in the midst of a DevOps transformation, enabling developers to own all aspects of their projects, while we serve as trusted advisors, making sure we create as much opportunity for developer autonomy as we can while maintaining the security and stability of our infrastructure. We celebrate achievements, encourage personal growth, structure knowledge sharing, and have fun doing it all.
The Role
As a Senior DevOps/SRE Engineer, you’ll be part of the 5 person team that ensures that Databox’s services (both our internally critical and our externally-visible systems), have reliability, uptime appropriate to users’ needs, and a fast rate of improvement. Additionally SRE’s will keep an ever-watchful eye on the availability, capacity, and performance of our system. Much of team software development focuses on optimizing existing systems, building infrastructure, and eliminating work through automation. You’ll also focus on writing tools and enabling other software developers to do their job and focus on things that they are good at. You will work on software development projects to keep important revenue-critical systems up and running, from code-level troubleshooting of traffic anomalies to maintenance of our most important services; from monitoring and alerts to building new automation infrastructure.
