Key job responsibilities
- Design, deploy, monitor, and automate infrastructure, tools and systems to provide a highly-available and resilient platform for our customers' and our team's workloads.
- This position involves on-call responsibilities, typically for one week in every six.
We don’t like getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant.
When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause so that we don’t get paged for the same issue twice.
