Senior SRE DevOps Engineer - Remote Opportunity
About the Role
We are seeking a Senior SRE DevOps Engineer to join our team remotely from the United States. This high-impact role focuses on building and maintaining resilient, large-scale infrastructure for real-time communication systems. As a Senior SRE DevOps Engineer, you will design, automate, and optimize cloud-native environments that support mission-critical connectivity under strict latency and reliability constraints.
What You'll Do
- Design and implement SLI/SLO frameworks with error budgets to guide reliability and performance decisions.
- Build and maintain AWS-based production infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation), including ECS, EKS/Kubernetes, and microservices orchestration.
- Develop internal tools, automation frameworks, and reliability services in TypeScript, Python, or similar languages to enhance operational efficiency.
- Lead incident response processes, conduct root cause analyses, and create automated runbooks to reduce MTTR.
- Architect and maintain CI/CD pipelines for backend services, mobile applications, and IoT firmware across cloud and on-prem environments.
- Implement comprehensive observability using OpenTelemetry, distributed tracing, metrics exporters, and alerting systems.
- Manage data services such as PostgreSQL (RDS), Redis/ElastiCache, SQS, and networking components (ALB/NLB, VPC, IAM).
- Enforce strong security standards, including IAM policies, encryption, secrets management, vulnerability management, and compliance auditing.
Requirements
- 7+ years of experience in SRE, DevOps, or Platform Engineering roles with daily hands-on coding responsibilities.
- Proficiency in at least one backend language (TypeScript/Node.js, Python, or Go) for developing automation tools, internal services, and reliability frameworks.
- Deep expertise in AWS services (ECS, EKS, RDS, ElastiCache, SQS, VPC, IAM, CloudWatch).
- Strong experience with Infrastructure as Code tools (Terraform, CloudFormation, or Pulumi), including modular design and state management.
- Proven experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines in both cloud and on-prem environments.
- Solid understanding of container orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, Helm) and distributed systems patterns such as circuit breakers, retries, and graceful degradation.
- Experience operating production databases (PostgreSQL, Redis) and message queues.
- Strong security knowledge covering network segmentation, encryption, secrets management, and incident response.
Nice to Have
- Experience with real-time communication infrastructure (SIP, RTP, WebRTC), telecom systems, IoT pipelines, or satellite/low-bandwidth optimization environments.
What We Offer
- Competitive compensation package.
- Flexible remote work environment with autonomy and ownership.
- Opportunity to build and scale critical communication infrastructure.
- Exposure to cutting-edge technologies across cloud, IoT, telecom, and distributed systems.
- High-impact role with direct influence on reliability and platform architecture.
- Collaborative, technically advanced engineering culture.
This Senior SRE DevOps Engineer position offers a unique opportunity to work remotely while building resilient infrastructure for real-time communication systems. With a competitive salary and exposure to cutting-edge technologies, this role is ideal for experienced professionals looking to make a significant impact.
