We are looking for a hands-on Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to own the reliability, observability, and cost efficiency of our high-throughput betting platform. You'll be embedded in our production operations, working directly with development teams to build resilient systems, implement actionable observability, and drive incident response from detection to remediation.
Tasks
- Partner with development teams to define and manage SLOs/SLIs specific to betting platform services (latency, queue depth, bet processing success rates)
- Enhance observability of our Java Spring Boot services — ensure metrics, logs, and tracing are actionable for detecting and fixing production issues
- Implement chaos engineering experiments targeting our event queue systems and high-availability betting services
- Design and execute pre-deployment readiness checks and post-release validation for risk-critical services
- Own Kubernetes cluster reliability across development, QA, and production environments
- Automate operational processes using Python and Bash scripting within our GitHub Actions ecosystem
- Optimize infrastructure costs through rightsizing EKS workloads, tuning autoscaling policies, and implementing efficient resource utilization patterns
- Strengthen platform guardrails through Flux GitOps policies and Terraform module validation
- Contribute to major incident response for betting platform outages, providing engineering expertise on Java service behavior and infrastructure dependencies
- Design and implement automated remediation patterns for common failure modes (event queue backpressure, connection pool exhaustion, database connectivity)
- Build hourly observability agent rules and thresholds for early-warning detection of production anomalies
- Develop runbooks and automation for common operational tasks across our multi-environment platform
