Sr Site Reliability Engineer

Role Description

We're looking for an SRE to own the reliability, scalability, and operability of the SigNoz cloud platform. You'll keep a petabyte-scale observability system fast and dependable — making sure the people who trust us to watch their systems can always trust ours. The platform team handles infra, scalability of SaaS, ingest pipelines, staging environments, automation, and the operational backbone of the product. This is a deeply hands-on role for someone who understands what actually breaks in production at scale — and enjoys fixing it for good.

Qualifications

• Kubernetes at scale — real fluency with resource tuning, autoscaling behavior, networking, stateful workloads, upgrades, and failure modes under load.
• Working knowledge of ClickHouse — operating it, tuning queries, and understanding its behavior at scale is a strong plus.
• Knowledge of Golang is a plus (most of our stack and tooling is in Go).
• Familiarity with OpenTelemetry and running large-scale data ingest pipelines is a plus.

Requirements

• 5–8 years in SRE, infrastructure, or platform/backend roles operating production systems at scale.
• Deep, practical Kubernetes experience — you know where the bodies are buried.
• Strong grasp of distributed systems failure modes, performance debugging, and capacity planning.
• Comfortable in code (Go preferred) — you automate and fix things, not just configure them.
• Loves open source — ideally with prior contributions to OSS projects (any size).
• Comfortable in a high-ownership, fast-moving, remote-first environment.
• Strong communication — can write clear runbooks and tech docs and explain trade-offs.

Benefits

• Work on a globally used open-source project that engineers actually love.
• Huge scope and ownership — your work directly shapes how teams adopt SigNoz.
• Collaborate with a high-caliber team who just can't stop shipping.
• Remote-first, async-friendly culture.
• Opportunity to help define the future of open-source observability.
