sanity - Director, Cloud Infrastructure

• Set the infrastructure strategy for Sanity's next stage of scale, with a clear roadmap across cloud infrastructure, reliability, deployment, observability, security, cost, and developer experience. • Lead the teams responsible for the shared foundations behind Sanity's engineering velocity: GCP projects and clusters, Kubernetes, networking, service discovery, routing, gateways, CI/CD, infrastructure as code, and observability. • Draw a clean line between Platform and SRE. Platform should own the shared foundations. SRE should help product teams run services well, with strong tooling, standards, and incident support. • Raise the reliability bar across Sanity's production systems, including dashboards, alert severity, paging standards, service ownership, on-call readiness, and incident response. • Make deployment boring in the best way: clear golden paths, production readiness checks, safe rollouts, useful automation, and fewer places engineers need to look before they can ship. • Partner with Product, Engineering, Security, Support, Sales, and Customer Success on the infrastructure work that matters to customers: uptime, latency, scale, compliance, trust, and cost. • Own cloud cost discipline without slowing the business down. You will need to understand where the money goes, make tradeoffs visible, and help teams build with cost in mind. • Shape Sanity's longer-term architecture for multi-region scale, disaster recovery, data residency, and trust requirements like SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI, HIPAA, or similar customer expectations. • Hire, coach, and stretch infrastructure leaders and engineers. The team needs direction, high standards, and someone who can make strong technical people better. • You have led Infrastructure, Platform, SRE, Cloud, or Developer Platform teams in a scaling SaaS, cloud, infrastructure, API, data, or developer-tools company. • You have operated systems with high request volume, multi-region production, strict uptime expectations, large cloud bills, customer-facing incidents, and trust requirements that made engineering quality visible. • You have built or run production platforms with Kubernetes, GCP or AWS, Terraform or similar infrastructure as code, service discovery, networking, API gateways, CDNs, observability, CI/CD, and incident response. • You are technically deep enough to debate architecture with senior infrastructure engineers and practical enough to make the call when the perfect answer is wasting time. • You know how to split central platform ownership from product-team service ownership without creating a ticket queue that everyone resents. • You improve on-call and reliability by building systems, standards, and feedback loops that make production healthier over time. • You can turn messy infrastructure work into a strategy people can follow, then keep pushing until the work ships. • You communicate clearly with executives, product leaders, engineers, and customer-facing teams. You can explain tradeoffs without sanding off the technical truth. • You have managed managers or senior technical leads, and you know when to coach, when to set the bar, and when to get directly involved. • What we can offer: • What we can offer: • Real infrastructure scale and a clear mandate to change how it works. • A senior seat in R&D, close to Product, Engineering, Security, and customer-facing teams. • A highly skilled, inspiring, and supportive team. • A positive, flexible, and trust-based work environment that supports long-term professional and personal growth. • A global, culturally diverse group of colleagues and customers.
