This role is ideal for a senior-level engineer with a strong backend development background who has transitioned into (or has a deep interest in) Site Reliability Engineering. You should have at least 5 years of experience in Java and 3+ years of expert-level SQL. This isn't just a monitoring role; it requires a developer’s mindset to build infrastructure and automate away manual tasks for a platform supporting over 2 million users. The compensation range is exceptionally broad ($110k - $270k), offering significant upside for top-tier talent. As a Public Benefit Corporation, the company emphasizes a mission-driven culture alongside a "Work Anywhere" policy. However, take note of the specific shift requirement: this role follows a **Monday – Friday, 2 PM – 10 PM PST** schedule to support global operations. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Are a Java expert who prefers solving complex production "mysteries" over standard feature building. * Have experience managing incidents and root cause analysis for high-volume, enterprise SaaS platforms. * Are proficient with the modern "Cloud Native" stack, including Kubernetes, AWS, and Docker. * Can commit to an evening shift (2 PM – 10 PM PST) and live in the PST or HST time zones.
