AI Summary

## The role, at a glance.

Supabase is seeking a senior Release Engineer with an SRE mindset to own the reliability of deployment systems and the control plane. The role focuses on safe, observable, recoverable releases, production monitoring, disaster-recovery readiness, and reducing deployment-related incident impact. The engineer will define SLOs and error budgets, participate in on-call rotations, lead blameless postmortems, and automate operational improvements. Success requires strong AWS, Kubernetes, infrastructure-as-code, observability, incident-response, and asynchronous collaboration experience.

Sample interview questionsHow would you improve a fragmented deployment workflow while preserving delivery speed?I would map the current release paths, identify inconsistent checks and failure modes, then establish a standardized pipeline with reusable templates, automated validation, progressive delivery controls, and clear rollback procedures. I would measure adoption and reliability through deployment success rate, lead time, change failure rate, and recovery time.

How do you define meaningful SLOs for a deployment platform?

I begin with critical user and operator journeys, such as starting a deployment, completing a rollout, and rolling back safely. I define measurable indicators for availability, latency, correctness, and recovery, set targets based on user impact and historical performance, and use error budgets to guide release-risk decisions.

Describe your approach to reducing MTTD and MTTR after deployment-related incidents.

I improve detection with actionable health checks, synthetic tests, correlated telemetry, and alerts tied to user impact rather than infrastructure noise. For recovery, I create tested rollback and break-glass runbooks, automate common mitigations, conduct blameless postmortems, and convert findings into durable controls.

How would you make disaster recovery environments reproducibly deployable?

I would inventory dependencies, secrets, configurations, ownership boundaries, and bootstrap ordering. Then I would codify infrastructure and configuration through version-controlled IaC, validate restores through regular game days, and document tested procedures for rebuilding environments from a known state.

How do you collaborate effectively in an asynchronous, globally distributed team?

I communicate decisions, context, and operational status in durable written documentation, with clear owners and deadlines. I use concise incident updates, decision records, runbooks, and dashboards so teammates across time zones can act independently without losing shared context.

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

We’re looking for a Release Engineer (SRE) to join our Release Engineering team (part of EngOps) — a production-operations expert who brings an SRE mindset to how Supabase ships and runs, making deploys safe, observable, and recoverable at scale.

Release Engineering’s scope has grown well beyond build-and-ship: we increasingly own the operational reliability of the systems that deploy and run Supabase. In this role you’ll treat our deployment pipelines, pre-production signal, and the control plane itself as production systems — with SLOs, error budgets, and on-call ownership — and you’ll be the person teams lean on when reliability is on the line.

This is not a “gatekeeper” role. You’ll make the reliable path the easy path: standardising how we deploy, instrumenting what we ship, and ensuring that when something breaks, we detect it quickly and recover quickly.

### What You’ll Be Responsible For

In this role, you’ll:

*

Own the reliability of Supabase’s deployment and release systems, and the control plane they run on, against clear SLOs and error budgets

*

Turn pre-production into a trustworthy signal — standardizing and instrumenting today’s fragmented, ad-hoc deployment workflows

*

Drive disaster-recovery readiness, including making environments reproducibly deployable from scratch (untangling undocumented secrets, unclear configuration ownership, and circular service dependencies)

*

Build and operate health and SLO monitoring for critical user flows, using synthetic testing to catch regressions before customers do

*

Reduce mean-time-to-detect and mean-time-to-recover for deploy-related incidents — which account for a large share of our incident load

*

Participate in on-call, lead blameless postmortems, and turn findings into runbooks, alerting, and automation that remove toil

*

Improve deployment observability and auditability — a clear record of what shipped where, when, and by whom

*

Document operational procedures — break-glass paths, access models, and runbooks — so reliability knowledge isn’t tribal

### Reliability & Operations

*

Define and track SLAs, SLOs, error budgets, and DORA delivery metrics — with meaningful alerting over noise

*

Ensure deployments fail fast and safely when health checks degrade

*

Harden access and break-glass workflows (e.g. scoped self-service) so the right people can act in an incident without unsafe workarounds

*

Partner with product engineering and platform teams to align release practices with reliability and availability targets

### You Might Be a Good Fit If You

*

Have 5+ years in SRE, production operations, platform engineering, or release engineering

*

Have operated production systems at scale and carried on-call for them

*

Are fluent in SLAs, SLOs, error budgets, DORA metrics, and operational KPIs — and the observability tooling behind them (Prometheus, Grafana, Alertmanager, or similar)

*

Have led incident response with tooling like [incident.io](http://incident.io) (or PagerDuty / Opsgenie), run blameless postmortems, and driven down MTTD/MTTR

*

Operate confidently on AWS (multiple accounts, IAM, VPC) in production

*

Are comfortable with infrastructure-as-code (Pulumi, Terraform) and Kubernetes

*

Script and automate to eliminate toil rather than absorb it

*

Communicate clearly with both infrastructure specialists and product engineers

*

Thrive in async, globally distributed teams

*

Are comfortable navigating ambiguity and iterating toward better systems over time

### 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.
