Job Description

Lead SRE/DevOps Engineer

Launch Potato

Role Description Own and evolve Launch Potato's cloud infrastructure, CI/CD platform, and compliance posture. Build the SRE function from the ground up so product teams can ship faster without compromising reliability, security, or cost control. Outcomes - Stand up the SRE practice from scratch: on-call rotation, PagerDuty configuration, SLA/SLO definitions for core infrastructure services, runbook library, and observability dashboards that tie site performance to business metrics. - Complete the AWS multi-account migration: move production workloads to an isolated account with zero unplanned downtime. - Deliver SOC 2 Type I audit-ready infrastructure evidence package: own the technical controls implementation end-to-end. - Version and publish the Terraform module library: (30+ modules) to a private registry to eliminate ad hoc git consumption by product teams. - Implement automated deployment rollback for ECS and Lambda: gate production on integration test passage. - Stand up monthly cost reporting to leadership: budget anomaly detection, savings plan recommendations, spend by service/team/environment. Qualifications - 5+ years of production AWS infrastructure experience with deep Terraform expertise. - Hands-on experience building the SRE function from scratch and had complete ownership. - Experience with a multi-site company where PaaS or microservices are required. - CI/CD pipeline ownership in one or more previous roles. - PagerDuty experience and standing up an on-call rotation. - 5+ years hands-on with AWS, Terraform, CI/CD pipeline ownership, and SRE tooling (OpenTelemetry, Grafana, PagerDuty or equivalent) in a production environment. Requirements - Ownership orientation: You don't wait to be assigned a problem. If something is broken, undocumented, or a risk, you flag it and fix it. If the runbooks don't exist yet, you write them. - Documentation discipline: You write things down. Runbooks, decision rationale, architecture patterns, incident post-mortems. The next person should be able to understand your work without asking you. - Cost consciousness: You think about the business impact of infrastructure decisions. You can explain a spending anomaly to a CFO in plain language. You know what things cost before you build them. - Calm under pressure: Production incidents happen. You triage clearly, communicate proactively with technical and non-technical stakeholders, and run a tight post-mortem without blame. You've been woken up at 3am. You can handle it. - Cross-functional communication: You can work with product engineers, legal/compliance, and executive leadership in the same week without switching communication modes awkwardly. You speak both engineer and business. - Proactive reliability: A good SRE reacts to outages. A great SRE catches degradation before it becomes an outage. You build alerting against the patterns, not just the failures. Benefits - Base salary: $160,000 to $190,000 per year, paid semi-monthly. - Total compensation includes a base salary, profit-sharing bonus, and competitive benefits. - Performance-driven company: future increases will be based on company and personal performance, not annual cost of living adjustments.
