[Hiring] Senior Manager, Site Reliability Engineer @BeyondTrust

Role Description

The SRE Manager is the operating leader of a new cross-product SRE team at BeyondTrust, standing up and running the AWS GovCloud environments that bring additional BeyondTrust products into our FedRAMP authorization. Reporting to the VP of Application Engineering, this role owns the reliability, change control, and continuous-compliance machinery for those environments so that product feature teams can stay focused on product delivery.

This is a player-coach role. The right person has staff-level technical depth:

• Can critically review Terraform, pipeline definitions, and architecture proposals.
• Has personally built and operated this machinery.
• Can carry context in an incident.

That depth is combined with real people-management experience:

• Has hired, grown, and run a small SRE or DevOps team.
• Owns the team's delivery, not just its architecture.

The first-year mission is concrete:

• Build and operate the AWS GovCloud environments that bring the covered products into our FedRAMP authorization.
• Ensure automation keeps them continuously compliant under FedRAMP 20x, with evidence that is machine-readable, re-verified every few days, and reported monthly.

The SRE Manager takes permanent ownership of the shared operational work that would otherwise fall on feature teams as toil:

• The GovCloud environments.
• Production operations.
• Release and update machinery.
• The compliance evidence pipeline for the covered products.

The team this role leads is an engineering team that owns operations, not an operations team. Its product is automation; operations is the input. Every manual procedure performed twice is a candidate for elimination, and the team's success is measured by the operational work it has made unnecessary, not the tickets it has closed. Hands-on operational work is capped at roughly half of team capacity; the rest goes to engineering the work away. Defending that split against day-to-day pressure is the manager's job.

Qualifications

• Experience in managing SRE or DevOps teams.
• Strong technical background in AWS, Terraform, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Ability to lead and mentor a team of engineers.
• Experience with FedRAMP compliance and continuous monitoring.

Requirements

• Own the AWS GovCloud landing zone for new product environments.
• Own the continuous-compliance evidence pipeline for FedRAMP 20x Key Security Indicators.
• Manage production change processes and incident management.
• Run intake and prioritization for operational requests from feature teams.
• Lead a team of DevOps, SRE, and security automation engineers.

Benefits

• Flexible work culture.
• Opportunities for continual learning and growth.
• Supportive team environment.
