About the job
Team Introduction The Data Infrastructure SRE team is responsible for the reliability, scalability, and efficiency of the compute platform that powers our products and data workloads. We operate large-scale Kubernetes environments and AI infrastructure across heterogeneous CPU and GPU resources, including cluster control planes, worker nodes, workload scheduling, container runtimes, and resource management systems. Our focus is to keep shared compute services available, predictable, and cost-efficient while enabling product and platform teams to run critical workloads safely at scale.
This role includes participation in a rotational on-call schedule to provide continuous coverage for critical compute infrastructure. You will respond to, troubleshoot, and resolve production incidents involving Kubernetes clusters, CPU and GPU nodes, containers, scheduling, and resource availability. Our team works across multiple time zones and follows rigorous change management and post-incident review practices to maintain platform stability.
As a Site Reliability Engineer focused on compute and AI Infra, you will operate and improve large-scale Kubernetes platforms, manage cluster and node lifecycle changes, diagnose workload and scheduling failures, and automate repetitive tasks. You will work with senior engineers and partner teams to improve the reliability, performance, and efficiency of the compute platform.
