Senior SRE/DevOps Engineer - Metabase

Metabase is the easiest way for people to get insights from their data, from tiny startups who get up and running quickly to major corporations with tens of thousands of users. We bring data tools with the elegance and simplicity of consumer products to the crufty world of enterprise business intelligence.

You will:

• Own and operate our application stack and AWS infrastructure to orchestrate and manage our hosted customer instances of Metabase.
• Debug runtime issues across the different levels of our application stack and hosting stack.
• Develop and build our internal tooling and automation to manage the lifecycle of a hosted Metabase installation, from purchase to deployment, zero-downtime upgrades, and general operational health.
• Continuously improve our automated deployments and testing.

We're looking for someone who:

• Is thoughtful and careful.
• Compulsively automates everything and documents it.
• Is able to make solid technical judgements and back them up articulately.
• Has at least 5 years of experience building and operating production infrastructure, ideally on public cloud.
• Has strong Kubernetes and AWS experience.
• Has strong experience with IaC and Terraform.
• Can write high quality and readable code in a modern language (e.g. Python, Go, etc.).
• Has experience with modern monitoring stacks (e.g. Prometheus/Grafana/Datadog).

Projects you could work on:

• Multi-region hosting
• Automate EKS cluster provisioning
• Extend our CRDs and Operators
• Improve the RDS sharding strategy for our multi-tenant platform
• Unify and improve our CI/CD platforms
• Collaborate with core application developers on changes to improve our application metrics, deployment speeds and CI integration.
• Maintain our SOC2 compliance and security posture
