Supabase is hiring a senior Site Reliability Engineer to establish and scale reliability practices across its globally distributed Postgres platform. The role partners with service teams on customer-centered SLIs/SLOs, error-budget policies, operational readiness reviews, incident learning, and sustainable on-call operations. It requires substantial hands-on production engineering expertise, including cloud infrastructure, infrastructure as code, observability, automation, and resilient-system design. This is an influential individual-contributor role in an async environment, focused on enabling engineering teams to own their services’ reliability rather than centrally operating their infrastructure. ## Role DNA A quick view of the complexity, pace, ownership and collaboration implied by the job description. ### Job Complexity 5/5EasyHard ### Pace & Pressure 5/5RelaxedFast-paced ### Autonomy Level 5/5GuidedFull ownership ### Communication Load 5/5IndependentCollaborative AI insightThis is a senior, cross-functional SRE position requiring 7+ years of reliability experience and demonstrated ability to influence technical standards across teams.

I would pair those signals with clear exclusions and data-quality checks, then propose targets based on historical performance, user impact, and the team’s capacity to respond. Finally, I would connect the SLO to an error-budget policy so it drives prioritization decisions rather than remaining a dashboard-only metric. Describe how you would conduct an Operational Readiness Review for a new platform service. I would use a consistent review framework covering ownership, service objectives, dashboards, alert quality, runbooks, dependencies, capacity assumptions, deployment and rollback safety, graceful-degradation behavior, and on-call escalation paths. I would involve the service owners early so the review is collaborative rather than a late-stage gate. The output would be an actionable set of risks, owners, due dates, and accepted exceptions, with recurring patterns fed back into the ORR standard. A recurring incident has affected several teams, but each postmortem identifies a different immediate trigger. How would you drive a systemic improvement? I would compare the incidents for shared contributing conditions, such as weak dependency contracts, missing saturation signals, poor rollback controls, or unclear ownership. I would quantify the impact and frequency, then facilitate a cross-team review focused on the common failure mode rather than assigning blame. The remediation would include a prioritized technical change, updated operational standards, and a way to verify that the change reduced recurrence. How do you reduce alert fatigue while preserving fast detection of meaningful customer impact? I would inventory alerts by page volume, acknowledgement behavior, actionability, and correlation with actual user impact. Alerts that lack a clear operator action should be removed, converted to tickets, or replaced with higher-level symptom alerts. I would also improve routing, deduplication, runbook coverage, and SLO-based paging so on-call engineers are interrupted primarily for conditions requiring timely intervention. How would you influence reliability improvements when you do not directly own the teams’ infrastructure or roadmaps? I would build trust through practical engagement: helping teams diagnose issues, providing reusable tooling and clear frameworks, and demonstrating the customer and engineering cost of reliability gaps with data. I would make adoption easy by offering templates for SLOs, readiness reviews, and incident follow-up. Where tradeoffs are necessary, I would use error-budget and incident evidence to help leaders and teams make informed prioritization decisions. Opportunity details ## About this role. ### About Supabase Supabase is the Postgres development platform, built by developers for developers. We provide a complete backend solution including Database, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector Search. All services are deeply integrated and designed for growth. ### About the Role Supabase manages millions of Postgres instances and is growing. We have strong teams across observability, release engineering, and incident management — and we’re concentrating our reliability efforts into a dedicated SRE practice that ties the discipline together across the platform. You’ll be embedded within Service Operations, and your primary job is to make every engineering team more reliable — not by owning their infrastructure, but by establishing the practices, frameworks, and feedback loops that let them own reliability themselves. You’ll work across the org: sometimes setting the standard, sometimes pair-programming a fix, sometimes helping a team define their error budget, sometimes telling them it’s exhausted. This role is ideal for someone who has a strong vision for how SRE should work and thrives in async, fast-paced environments where influence matters more than authority. ### What You’ll Own * Partner with service teams to define meaningful SLIs and SLOs grounded in customer experience, and build the error budget policies that turn them into engineering decisions * Own and evolve the Operational Readiness Review (ORR) process — conducting reviews for new services and major changes across observability, alerting, runbooks, capacity, and graceful degradation * Strengthen the incident-to-improvement pipeline: connecting postmortem findings to operational readiness gaps, identifying repeat failure patterns, and driving systemic fixes * Act as the reliability expert teams pull in for architecture reviews, failure mode analysis, dependency mapping, and resilience design * Identify and quantify operational toil across the org, and build or advocate for automation that eliminates it * Help teams design sustainable on-call practices: alert quality, escalation paths, runbook coverage, and noise reduction * Track and report on org-wide operational maturity, surfacing systemic gaps and driving remediation ### You Might Be a Good Fit If You * Have 7+ years of experience in SRE, production engineering, or reliability-focused roles, including experience shaping SRE practices and driving adoption across engineering teams * Have a software engineering mindset — you write code and build tools, not just configure them * Have hands-on experience defining and operationalizing SLOs/SLIs at scale, including error budget policies that actually influenced engineering decisions * Have deep experience with incident response, postmortem facilitation, and turning incident learnings into systemic improvements * Have worked with large-scale multi-tenant systems (bonus: managed database platforms or Postgres) * Are proficient with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) and infrastructure-as-code (Pulumi preferred, Terraform/CDK also acceptable) * Communicate clearly and persuasively — this role requires influencing without authority across a distributed org * Have experience in async or globally distributed teams * Are energized by making other teams more effective rather than being the one who fixes everything ### Nice to Have * Experience with Kubernetes-based platform operations * Familiarity with OpenTelemetry, VictoriaMetrics, Grafana, or similar observability tooling * Experience building developer-facing reliability tooling (SLO dashboards, ORR frameworks, toil tracking, DORA metrics) ### What We Offer * Fully Remote We hire globally. We believe you can do your best work from anywhere. There are no Supabase offices, but we provide a WeWork membership or co-working allowance you can use anywhere in the world. * ESOP Every team member receives ESOP (equity ownership) in the company. We want everyone to share in the upside of what we’re building together. * Tech Allowance Use this budget to set up your ideal work environment—laptop, monitor, headphones, or whatever helps you do your best work. * Health Benefits Supabase covers 100% of health insurance for employees and 80% for dependents, wherever you are. Your wellbeing and your family’s health are important to us. * Annual Off-Sites Once a year, the entire company gathers in a new city for a week of connection, collaboration, and fun. It’s a highlight of our year. * Flexible Work We operate asynchronously and trust you to manage your own time. You know what needs to be done and when. * Professional Development Every team member receives an annual education allowance to spend on learning—courses, books, conferences, or anything that supports your growth. ### About the Team Supabase was born-remote and open-source-first. We believe our globally distributed team is our secret weapon in building tools developers love. * ~400 team members * 60+ countries * 20+ languages spoken * Over $1B raised (including our $500M Series F) * 540,000+ community members We move fast, build in public, and use what we ship. If it’s in your project, we probably use it in ours too. We believe deeply in the open-source ecosystem and strive to support—not replace—existing tools and communities.
