You will play a pivotal role in ensuring the reliability, scalability, and security of public-facing services by implementing SLOs, automating toil, and managing robust observability platforms. We are looking for someone who is highly communicative, proactive, and thrives in an open, tech-centric culture. You must be comfortable taking the initiative, mentoring fellow engineers, and confidently communicating technical solutions in fluent English to both technical peers and client stakeholders. ### Responsibilities: * Implement and maintain SLOs, SLIs, and error budgets for owned services to balance reliability with feature development. * Build and maintain observability across services using metrics, logs, traces, and alerting to ensure actionable signals tied to user impact. * Lead capacity planning, load testing, and resilience testing for critical, public-facing services. * Automate manual processes and toil to improve operational efficiency, minimize human error, and streamline CI/CD pipelines. * Contribute to the platform’s reliability through Terraform and Kubernetes configuration on AWS, strictly adhering to Cloud Platform standards. * Participate in on-call rotations and incident management, responding with urgency, troubleshooting complex issues, and driving blameless postmortems. * Mentor and guide other engineers, fostering a culture of operational excellence, knowledge sharing, and continuous learning within the team. ### About You ### The essentials: * Strict geographical requirement: You must be currently residing in Costa Rica (role is 100% remote within the country). * Extensive hands-on experience as a Site Reliability Engineer managing production systems, including implementing SLOs, error budgets, and incident response. * Working proficiency managing infrastructure with Kubernetes and Terraform on AWS environments. * Deep experience with observability platforms (such as Datadog) and designing effective, actionable alert systems. * Strong scripting and programming skills (e.g., Python, Go) for automation and custom tooling. * Outstanding communication skills and fluent English; you must be proactive, participate actively with your camera on, and comfortably articulate technical solutions without relying on AI-generated scripts. ### Not a Must but a Plus: * Experience using agentic AI tools (e.g., Claude Code, MCP-based integrations) to automate engineering or operational workflows with appropriate guardrails and human oversight.
