Responsibilities
- Keep user-facing services and production systems reliable, scalable, and efficient
- Build automation and tooling that reduces toil and replaces manual work with repeatable, infrastructure-as-code-driven workflows
- Operate and troubleshoot production systems on Kubernetes, including deployments, rollouts, and scaling
- Write and maintain infrastructure as code, and ship changes safely through CI/CD and GitOps
- Participate in on-call, triage alerts, follow and improve runbooks, and escalate appropriately
- Contribute to the observability stack, using metrics, logs, and SLOs to detect symptoms early rather than just outages
- Take part in incident response and post-incident reviews, turning learnings into changes in automation and process
- Document runbooks, architecture decisions, and reviews so your findings become repeatable practices
Requirements
- Experience keeping production systems reliable, combining an operations mindset with real software engineering practice
- Experience building net-new infrastructure tooling and automation, not just configuring existing tools
- The ability to read, debug, and reason about code
- Experience with infrastructure as code, and with Kubernetes and its ecosystem
- Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider (GCP or AWS)
- Familiarity with observability practices, including metrics, logging, alerting, and SLOs or SLIs
- Comfort participating in on-call and incident response, with a structured approach to troubleshooting under pressure
- Strong written communication and the ability to operate as a manager-of-one in an async, distributed environment
- A track record of using automation, and increasingly AI, to reduce toil and improve how you and your team work
- Alignment with GitLab's values and a commitment to working in accordance with them
