Job Description

Senior Site Reliability / Infrastructure Platform Engineer

(Virtualization, distributed systems, Linux performance, and service reliability)

Responsibilities

• Act as senior escalation point for service outages, platform failures, and complex distributed systems incidents.
• Own the architecture, deployment, and reliability of virtualization platforms, storage clusters, and service infrastructure.
• Design and maintain higher-level service architecture including load balancing, clustering strategies, dependency management, and failure domain modeling
• Build, operate, and scale virtualization and storage environments (compute clusters, hypervisors, and software-defined storage).
• Design, deploy, and maintain distributed database platforms including SQL clusters and in-memory data stores.
• Perform deep Linux systems engineering including kernel, scheduler, memory, IO, and network-stack optimization.
• Develop and maintain infrastructure automation, CI pipelines, and Git-driven operational workflows.
• Build and operate backup, snapshot, replication, and disaster-recovery systems. Design recovery procedures and regularly validate restoration paths.
• Perform capacity planning, performance modeling, and saturation analysis across compute, memory, storage, and network layers.
• Utilize observability platforms to detect early signals of service degradation and latent reliability risks.
• Collaborate with application, network, and data center engineering teams to deliver end-to-end resilient platforms.
• Produce architecture documents, runbooks, failure analyses, and low-level operational design documentation.
• Lead incident response, root-cause analysis, and reliability improvement initiatives.

Qualifications

• Strong background as a senior Linux systems engineer, SRE, or infrastructure platform engineer.
• Proven experience designing and operating large virtualization and storage clusters.
• Hands-on experience with distributed databases (Galera/Patroni/MySQL/Postgres clusters, Redis/KeyDB, etc.).
• Strong understanding of service architecture, clustering models, load balancers, and high-availability patterns.
• Deep Linux expertise including CPU/NUMA tuning, memory management, disk IO pipelines, and network optimization.
• Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and Git-based infrastructure workflows.
• Demonstrated ownership of backup, disaster recovery, and service continuity systems.
• Strong troubleshooting skills across OS, platform, and application interaction layers.
• Ability to translate business and service requirements into resilient technical architectures.
• Strong documentation, communication, and cross-team collaboration skills.
• Ability to operate effectively during outages, incident response, and recovery scenarios.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Ceph, ZFS, NVMe-oF, or large-scale software-defined storage platforms.
• Experience with high-performance or low-latency Linux environments.
• Familiarity with container platforms or hybrid virtualization/container environments.
• Experience supporting high-bandwidth media, streaming, or real-time service platforms.
• Exposure to infrastructure-focused AI tooling or automation frameworks.

Please be advised

Technical assessment covering Linux systems engineering, distributed systems concepts, and platform reliability may be conducted prior to interview progression.
