Site Reliability Engineer, dLocal

• Over 4 years’ of experience as SRE Engineer or in a very similar role more focused on observability
• Expertise in Kubernetes, including its core components, deployment methodologies, and monitoring best practices
• Some understanding of OpenTelemetry, including setting up OTEL collectors, instrumentation, and pipeline optimization
• Proficiency with monitoring and logging tools such as Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, New Relic, or Datadog
• Hands-on experience with IaC tools (Terraform) and GitOps CI/CD solutions (ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, or similar)
• Experience integrating incident management platforms (PagerDuty, Jira) with automated alerting workflows
• Strong scripting abilities (Python, Go, or similar) for automating observability tasks
• A problem-solving mindset, with the ability to collaborate across multi-functional teams to drive reliability improvements

Desirable

• Own OpenTelemetry Pipelines: Design, implement, and maintain observability pipelines across the three main signals—logs, metrics, and traces—ensuring standardized, scalable, and efficient data ingestion
• Optimize ingestion strategies to balance cost, performance, and usability
• Empower Engineering Teams: Build self-service automation and tooling that enables development teams to instrument and leverage observability without requiring manual intervention from the SRE team
• Drive adoption of best practices while ensuring teams own their telemetry
• Support Incident Management: Be the Engineering side of our Incident Management Team, designing the processes, playbooks, checklists, and automations for them and other engineers to follow during an incident
• Collaborate Across Teams: Interact with members from almost all teams across the business to understand their monitoring, alerting and SLO / SLA requirements and design systems and processes that ensure we meet or exceed these requirements
• Influence architectural decisions during initial design stages to ensure resiliency and scale at the outset of software development
• Automate Observability Infrastructure: Leverage Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) to provision and manage monitoring tools, alerting rules, and our observability configurations across OTEL Pipelines
• Define Baseline Observability Standards: Design base level requirements for new and existing services to ensure that all dLocal infrastructure and code are monitored consistently and accurately at a basic level
• Own Technical and Security Health: Take full ownership of dLocal’s infrastructure reliability, ensuring adherence to key availability and security KPIs
• Optimize Alerting Systems: Continuously refine alerting signals to minimize noise and ensure them are always actionable, reducing fatigue and improving response efficiency
