Title: Data Center Site Reliability Engineer (SRE)
Location: Portland, OR (Onsite)
Duration: FTE
About the Role
We are seeking a Data Center Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to ensure the reliability, scalability, and performance of large-scale data center infrastructure supporting advanced AI workloads. In this role, you will collaborate with cross-functional teams to automate operations, enhance observability, and maintain high availability for distributed systems. This is a hands-on technical position in a dynamic environment, offering the opportunity to tackle complex challenges at the intersection of AI, data center operations, and software reliability.
Key Responsibilities
- Maintain and improve the reliability and uptime of on-premises and cloud-based data center environments.
- Design, implement, and manage monitoring, logging, and alerting systems (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, PagerDuty).
- Develop and maintain infrastructure-as-code (Pulumi, Terraform) and continuous deployment pipelines (Buildkite, ArgoCD).
- Participate in on-call rotations, respond to incidents, perform root cause analysis, and drive post-mortem processes.
- Analyze system performance, forecast capacity needs, and optimize resource utilization.
- Collaborate with hardware, networking, and software engineering teams to design and implement resilient, scalable solutions.
- Create and maintain documentation and standard operating procedures.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent experience).
- 5+ years in site reliability engineering, data center operations, or large-scale infrastructure management.
- Expert-level knowledge of Kubernetes (on-prem and cloud), infrastructure-as-code tools (Pulumi, Terraform), and CI/CD systems.
- Proficiency in at least one systems programming language (Rust, C++, Go) and strong scripting/automation skills.
- Deep understanding of monitoring and observability technologies.
- Strong troubleshooting skills across hardware, networking, and distributed software systems.
- Experience with incident management and root cause analysis.
- Excellent communication and documentation skills.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience supporting AI/ML workloads or high-density compute environments.
- Familiarity with data center electrical, cooling, and network systems.
- Certifications in SRE, Kubernetes, or data center operations.
- Experience with both on-premises and cloud infrastructure at scale.
