• Own the continuous integration pipeline
• Own the release process
• Own the monitoring and alerting for our hosted product
• Serve as an interface between management / business and engineering, helping to determine feasibility and plan/breakdown multi month / year efforts
• Create and define engineering quality standards across the team or multiple teams, looking to reduce incidents from an organizational process perspective
• Determine and resolve complex issues and bugs

Our ideal candidate has:

• 4+ years of experience
• Experience across the spectrum of QA: Write automated white-box tests, author black-box test cases and automated system tests
• Have developed and operated large-scale infrastructure services
• Ability to iterate quickly on new products and the flexibility to switch to high-priority initiatives in a fast-paced environment
• Experience testing Go and working with Helm charts
• Passion for infrastructure and/or DevOps tooling
