About the Role:

Your expertise in cloud-native and highly elastic service design and scaling practices is going to ensure our growing services, as well as new products and features operate smoothly and without manual intervention to achieve Motive’s strong 99.99% availability SLOs.

  • Identify and remove bottlenecks from systems in production throughout AWS services and with our Kubernetes platform.
  • Ensure 99.99% customer-facing uptime.
  • Continuously improve the monitoring and alerting capabilities of our platform, enabling us to be proactive instead of reactive.

What We’re Looking For:

  • 8+ years of professional SRE/DevOps experience, and a demonstrated ability working on high volume production systems
  • Demonstrable systems architect expertise, solving complex technical problems and implementing company wide solutions.
  • Advanced knowledge of AWS services and technologies (ALB/ELB, IAM permissions, DynamoDB, SNS, EKS/Fargate, etc.)
  • Experience with infrastructure as code and configuration management (Terraform and Helm charts especially) to design and provision new services
  • Knowledge of Python, Bash or other scripting languages. Knowledge of Ruby or Golang is a plus.
  • High-level of ownership and drive to work with others and see improvements through to production.
