Requirements
• We’re looking for people that like deep ownership of production systems, people that are not afraid of working with stateful infrastructure and love working in AWS, VMs, automation, and making messy systems reliable. • In general we seek SRE’s who are: • Enthusiastic drivers. We need proactive people that can fully own projects and get them done, and know to get help when needed. "Are we there yet?" is the wrong question. • Optimistic problem solvers. Things get hard here sometimes, whether it's scaling, shipping complex products, handling a stream of support requests, or trying to ship something that touches multiple teams. We need people who won't get disheartened, and will collaborate, iterate, and ship their way out of anything. • Grown ups. We’re an international bunch of weirdos, but one thing unites us: everyone is kind, considerate, and professional towards each other. This isn't about age or experience, it's about being low-ego, flexible, and respectful. • Genuine builders. PostHog is full of people who just love building stuff, people who would still be building software even if there wasn't a paycheck at the end. If this sounds like you, we should talk. • Strong experience operating production infrastructure on AWS • Hands-on experience with VM-based systems (EC2), not just managed PaaS • Experience automating infrastructure using tools like Terraform, Ansible, or similar • Solid understanding of Linux systems (disk, memory, networking, failure modes) • Experience supporting stateful systems (databases, queues, storage systems, etc.) • Ability to debug and reason about performance and reliability issues in production • Prior experience with ClickHouse or other analytical databases • Experience operating systems at very large data scale • Familiarity with Kubernetes (helpful, but not the core of this role) • If this sounds like you, we should talk. • We are committed to ensuring a fair and accessible interview process. If you need any accommodations or adjustments, please let us know.
