Summary:

We are seeking a skilled software engineer with a focus on scalability, security, reliability, and extensibility. Our SRE team partners with product-centric engineering teams to provide infrastructure, tools, and architectural design to ensure the rapid and sustainable growth of all our services.

Our team influences the thinking and methodologies of the entire engineering organization. A primary method for this is to provide smoothly paved paths toward good patterns, a few guard rails against particularly bad patterns, and a carefully minimized amount of toil. An excellent candidate will have the breadth of perspective to grasp both short term product feature goals and long term scalability goals, and the depth of technical skill to design systems that reconcile the two.

Key Focuses:

  • Design, implementation, and troubleshooting of large fault-tolerant distributed systems
  • Design and implementation of a diverse ecology of tools and frameworks surrounding our Kubernetes clusters
  • Design, implementation, and continual refinement of a complex and performant CI/CD infrastructure
  • Embracing and enabling GitOps workflows throughout the organization
  • Participation in an on-call rotation covering core infrastructure
  • Practicing sustainable incident response and blameless postmortems

Minimum Qualifications: 

  • 5+ years of relevant experience in industry
  • Experience architecting, developing, and troubleshooting large scale distributed systems
  • Fluency with multiple compiled or interpreted languages, ideally including Go
  • Experience with self-managed Kubernetes
  • Experience in the design and implementation of high-volume CI/CD pipelines
  • Strong low-level Linux skills; strace, netstat, and tcpdump should be old friends

Preferred Qualifications: 

  • Computer Science degree or relevant experience
  • Experience with AWS, and ideally with managing it with Terraform
  • Familiarity with large scale monitoring systems: Prometheus, Cloudwatch, Cloudtrail, etc

As part of our team you’ll enjoy:

  • Competitive compensation
  • Exceptional benefits package
  • Flexible Vacation & Paid Time Off
  • Employer-matched 401(k) plan

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
