Site Reliability & Collaboration:
* Familiarity with Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) practices: observability, scalability, automation
* Proven ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams including DBAs, DevOps, developers, and infrastructure engineers
The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range.

This range may be modified in the future.
We offer comprehensive benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, HSA, FSA, 401(k), and life, disability & ADD insurance to eligible employees. Salaried personnel receive paid time off. Hourly employees are not eligible for paid time off unless required by law. Hourly employees on a Service Contract Act project are eligible for paid sick leave.
