Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Arcadia is hiring a Staff Site Reliability Engineer to anchor its SRE/Platform Engineering team. The role owns reliability projects end to end, architects and operates hybrid infrastructure, and improves automation, observability, security, and incident response.
Responsibilities
- Own and deliver SRE projects end-to-end, from scoping and design through implementation, rollout, and documentation
- Serve as a technical anchor for the SRE team: run design reviews, pair on complex debugging, and mentor engineers to work through ambiguity independently
- Design and operate infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and on-prem environments, making sound tradeoffs between speed, reliability, and cost
- Build and maintain infrastructure as code (Terraform and similar) with reusable, well-reviewed modules across multiple environments
- Lead operations/solutions that may span across cloud and on-prem, including upgrades, capacity planning, networking, and scaling, and turn them into repeatable runbooks and automation
- Evolve CI/CD pipelines to reduce manual steps and improve rollback safety
- Drive observability improvements so engineering teams can monitor effectively with meaningful dashboards, SLOs, and low-noise alerting
- Identify and execute FinOps initiatives across cloud platforms, backed by data
- Contribute to database reliability for MySQL, PostgreSQL & MSSQL; including backups, performance, replication, and failover testing
- Strengthen security posture through least-privilege access, secrets management, monitoring, and audit readiness across hybrid environments
- Troubleshoot complex production issues spanning networking, cloud, compute, on-prem, Kubernetes, and databases, then convert the fix into a runbook or automation
- Write documentation the team actually needs: architecture decision records, runbooks, and post-incident action items that get closed
- Partner with SRE leadership and engineering teams on incident reviews, migration planning, and platform strategy
- Participate in on-call and drive post-incident analysis focused on systemic fixes over individual blame
Skills
- 6+ years in SRE, DevOps, or Cloud Engineering, with a clear progression from task execution to independent project ownership
- Hands-on expertise in AWS, Azure, and on-prem infrastructure; able to architect resilient hybrid solutions and explain the tradeoffs
- Strong Terraform skills, including multi-environment state management and reviewing others' IaC
- CI/CD design and ownership with a track record of improving deployment reliability
- Observability experience, including defining strategies to reduce alert noise
- Strong written and verbal communication; you will present proposals, write documentation others can follow, and work across teams daily
- Automation-first mindset with a record of reducing operational toil
- Incident management experience, including post-incident reviews that fix the system, not just the symptom
- Ability to operate autonomously: propose an approach, pressure-test it with peers, and execute
- Please note that we are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this position at this time
- FinOps experience across multiple cloud providers
- Kubernetes
- Mentorship ability, formal or informal (we will ask about this in interviews)
- Secrets management experience (e.g., Vault)
- Event-driven architecture experience
- Exposure to AI-enabled tooling and workflow automation
- Experience with data warehouses such as Snowflake
- Relevant certifications (AWS, Azure, CNCF, HashiCorp)
- Experience in a company that has grown through acquisitions, consolidating disparate infrastructure environments
