Senior Site Reliability Engineer (Finance)
Senior Site Reliability Engineer
About the Position: As a Senior Site Reliability Engineer at Otava, your primary role is to act as a resource to support company technical initiatives as well as a mentor to junior staff. Otava, being a global cloud company, has a diverse product offering and leverages technologies from dozens of vendors. We do it, so our customers don't have to. The more we automate, the more we optimize, the better an experience we deliver to our customers and prospects. Providing constructive feedback and outside the box thinking is highly encouraged. Find a better way to do things? Implement it! Discover a technology that can provide more value at less operational cost? Pitch it!
This role is designed for someone with a wide breadth of technical knowledge. We're seeking a resource that can self-manage complex tasks with appropriate direction. Consider this role a bridge between Product Management, Engineering and Sales Architecture. Technical implementation of new products and targeted improvements of existing products is a major requirement. Working closely with Product Management to discuss technical feasibility is a daily task. Serving as an escalation path for Tier 1 & 2 support levels is a daily task. Knowledge is power, the ideal candidate will consider documentation a major part of their job. (TL;DR Mentor, train document and build!)
This specific role initially, and ideally, would be filled by a candidate with an understanding of PostgreSQL, HA Proxy and Nginx. PostgreSQL migration experience, optimizing and clustering are a big plus, but not a hard requirement. Working knowledge with Ansible and Terraform is also a significant advantage.
We deal with a lot of technology, but that shouldn't dissuade you from applying. Are you a Public Cloud expert? We need that. Have you RuggedDevSecOpsed your toaster? That too. Are you a master of APIs, agile practices, virtualization or speak fluent Ansible/Terraform/Go/Python? Yes please!
