This role is designed for a seasoned engineer (5+ years) who operates at the intersection of Infrastructure, Security, and Site Reliability. It is ideal for someone who prefers "building" over just "auditing," as you will be developing core security services and APIs for a massive multi-cloud database platform. You should have deep expertise in Linux internals and experience securing Kubernetes environments at scale.
The compensation is highly competitive ($147k–$289k) and includes equity and comprehensive benefits like 20 weeks of parental leave. While there are several office hubs, the role offers true flexibility with a "fully remote" option for those on East Coast hours. You’ll be working with cutting-edge tech like eBPF and Terraform within the SRE organization, ensuring high-impact visibility across the entire engineering stack.
**You might be a good fit if you...**
* Have strong coding skills in Go, Rust, or Python and experience with Terraform.
* Understand Linux low-level fundamentals (cgroups, seccomp, AppArmor).
* Have hands-on experience securing Kubernetes (OPA, Falco, or Tetragon).
* Enjoy designing automated systems that handle identity and vulnerability management across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
