Senior Site Reliability Engineer

Engineering @ Taivo At Taivo, we aren't just merging two companies; we are building a unified, scalable foundation for the future of our industry. Our IT philosophy is rooted in Governance over Administration. We don't just "fix tickets"—we build the secure, automated "rails" that allow our Engineering and Business teams to run their "trains" at high velocity.

We are embarking on a major engineering transformation—moving away from traditional siloes to bring our entire platform ecosystem under one roof, and we need a dynamic Senior Site Reliability Engineer to help lead the charge. You won't be trapped in a reactive "admin of everything" role; instead, you’ll have the autonomy to drive architectural vision, establish modern operational practices, and support teams through this shift.

If you are energized by high-impact cultural change and ready to shape how our organization builds and scales software, this is your opportunity to pave out our future. Day in the Life Platform Engineering: Design and maintain our core Kubernetes and Cloud Native environments within GCP, AWS, and Azure, ensuring high availability, scalability, security, and seamless deployment patterns.

Observability & Reliability: Implement a comprehensive observability stack to provide deep insights into system health, performance, and security posture. Cross-Cloud Strategy: While GCP is our primary home, you will provide expertise in integrating and bridging legacy or specialized workloads in Azure and AWS. Automation & Lifecycle: Build automated, repeatable processes for provisioning and deprovisioning infrastructure, reducing manual toil to near zero.

You will standardize observability and cost reporting workflows. The "Rails" Philosophy: Develop self-service tools that empower DevOps and Engineering teams to manage their own tool configurations while remaining compliant with Taivo security standards. Optimization: Audits multi-cloud spend, consolidates SaaS observability licenses, and optimize cloud resources.
