## What You’ll Do

- Contribute and execute the SRE vision, strategy, and roadmap for a large-scale, distributed cloud infrastructure.
- Lead and mentor a high-performing team of SREs, promoting a culture of ownership, collaboration, and continuous learning.
- Champion automation-first practices, leveraging AI, tools like Terraform, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure-as-Code to minimize toil and manual interventions.
- Establish and evolve Operational Excellence best practices ensuring the platform is proactive, and propagates organizational learning.
- Drive initiatives for incident management, postmortem culture, root cause analysis, and system hardening.
- Collaborate with engineering, product, and customer support teams to build scalable, resilient, and self-healing systems.
- Evolve our on-call strategy and processes to support a 24x7, globally distributed platform with minimal disruptions.

## Who You Are

We’re looking for a thoughtful leader who blends technical depth with strategic vision, and thrives in fast-moving, high-growth environments. If you value clarity over complexity, mentorship over management, and resilience over rigidity, you’ll fit right in.

- Experience hiring, developing, and managing geographically distributed 24x7 engineering teams.
- Experience in designing and implementing incident management processes including on-call rotations, escalation paths, postmortems, and SLO/SLA framework.
- Solid foundation in systems engineering, with a deep understanding of distributed systems, networking, and storage architecture.
- Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, with the ability to influence product, platform, hardware, and security teams.

Additional Qualifications

- Experience building platform tooling and internal developer portals to improve engineering velocity and operational visibility.
- Familiarity with GPU-accelerated workloads, including resource isolation, scheduling, and performance tuning.
- Experience working in AI infrastructure environments supporting training or inference at scale.
- Background in compliance, reliability risk modeling, or operational maturity assessments (e.g., RTO/RPO, chaos engineering).
- Prior leadership experience in bare metal infrastructure environments (e.g., custom data centers, edge compute, HPC clusters).
- Working knowledge of DPUs, service mesh architectures, and multi-tenant security models.
