Desirable

• You'll be Vida's first dedicated Site Reliability Engineer. You'll join the Enablement Team, which owns the platform and tooling our Engineering Teams build on. You'll report to the Engineering Manager and work closely with the team's Lead Engineer, who sets technical direction and will mentor you
• You'll modernize, consolidate, and scale our infrastructure as Vida takes on a wave of new enterprise contracts starting January 1. You'll also help shape what SRE looks like at Vida going forward
• Consolidate our Terraform, which has grown into inconsistent patterns across our infrastructure and data repositories, into a clean, well-documented structure the whole team can work in. Establish conventions for state management, module structure, code review, and CI checks
• Normalize environments, improve build and deploy automation in GitHub Actions, and add drift detection and alerting
• Apply overdue patches and upgrades across our Cloud SQL databases and application runtimes
• Right-size compute and database workloads for growth, including connection pooling and scaling improvements for high-traffic services
• Evaluate our Kubernetes architecture as we grow, including whether and when to move to a multi-cluster setup
• Improve monitoring and observability in Datadog and Cloud Monitoring so we catch issues before they become incidents
• Design observability access for contractors and external partners that gives them the visibility they need while keeping protected health information out of view
• Retire legacy infrastructure and tooling that has been replaced but not yet decommissioned
• Build repeatable operational processes, including runbooks, an on-call rotation, and escalation documentation
• Support infrastructure readiness for Vida's January 1 enterprise launches
• Additional responsibilities as needed
