[Hiring] SRE / Platform Engineer @Linro

Role Description

You would be one of our first infrastructure hires, taking day-to-day operation of the platform off the CTO. Linro enforces policy on other people's cloud infrastructure, so our own has to be reliable, reproducible and auditable. You own production: how Linro runs for each customer, how it upgrades, and how we know it is unhealthy before a customer does.

• Own production reliability: SLOs, alerting, on-call and blameless postmortems for the control plane and every customer installation.
• Make the install fleet boring: provisioning, maintenance windows and safe auto-upgrades across SaaS and self-hosted installs.
• Fix the open reliability work: sensor memory ceilings and OOM visibility, ClickHouse cost and capacity, and the health of Postgres, PGMQ and Temporal.
• Evolve the platform: Terraform and Terragrunt, Helm, GitHub Actions with short-lived OIDC credentials, local development (Tilt, Coder), and staging and production environments, with guardrails for humans and AI agents alike.
• Produce audit-ready operations: backups, disaster recovery and continuity tests with evidence for SOC 2 and ISO 27001.

Qualifications

• Hands-on operation of AWS, GCP or Azure in production, AWS preferred.
• Not just deploying to it, actually running it: accounts and access management, networking and the failure modes.
• 3+ years running production Kubernetes with Helm, including debugging OOMs, resource limits and failed rollouts.
• Terraform in multi-environment setups, with CI/CD in GitHub Actions and short-lived credentials.
• Go, or Python and a wish to learn Go.
• You read and write code in the services you operate.
• Observability and SLOs: symptom-based alerting with Prometheus, Grafana or OpenTelemetry, and the discipline to delete noisy alerts.
• Production Postgres: backups, point-in-time recovery, migrations and upgrades.
• Incident ownership: on-call, leading incidents and writing postmortems that change something.
• Security-minded operations: least privilege, secrets handling, access reviews and audit trails.
• You work with AI agents every day, including for infrastructure changes, and know where to trust them and where to check their output.

Requirements

• Operating Temporal, queues or ClickHouse, including cost tuning.
• Shipping and upgrading software in customer-run or self-hosted environments.
• Compliance operations: SOC 2, ISO 27001 or PCI DSS evidence.
• Using AI coding agents safely for infrastructure work.
• Early-stage startup experience, or having been a founding infrastructure engineer.

Benefits

• Real ownership: You own production and the platform underneath it, with direct contact with the engineers and a say in how we build.
• Meaningful equity: You are an early employee, and your stake reflects it.
• Competitive salary, benchmarked to the market.
• A quarterly European offsite, and a team that takes both the mission and each other's time seriously.
