Site Reliability Engineer (m/f/d) - #2631652

Empowering every employee.

Our mission is to be the world's most used AI employee experience platform by changing the way frontline employees work.

At Flip, we have a clear goal: to revolutionize the world for frontline workers and give them a voice. Become a Flip Game Changer and work with an unbeatable team to ensure that all employees, no matter where they work, have access to their company's internal information. If you're ready to make an impact and shape the work lives of millions of people, then you've come to the right place!

Job Teaser

As a Site Reliability Engineer in our Platform Squad, you will be a key player in keeping Flip's infrastructure fast, resilient and ready to scale. You'll shape the reliability culture, tooling and practices that allow our engineering teams to ship with confidence - at scale and without compromising availability.

This role is perfect for an engineer who is passionate about building high-throughput, highly available systems and who wants to shape how a fast-growing SaaS platform runs in production.

What awaits you with us

• Enable scaling: Further expand and optimize our cloud infrastructure on Azure and our Kubernetes clusters - designed for high throughput and highest availability - to support Flip's rapid growth across the globe.
• Ensure resilience & safety: Design and implement zero-downtime deployments, rollback mechanisms and disaster-recovery strategies that keep our platform available around the clock.
• Create observability: Evolve our LGTM stack (Loki, Grafana, Tempo, Mimir) to give every team the visibility they need - and use it to define and optimize our SLOs.
• Automate everything: Design, develop and optimize infrastructure as code with Pulumi in Go, eliminating toil and making our platform self-service for engineering teams.
• Champion reliability practices: Promote CI/CD best practices, incident management, post-mortems and developer experience across the entire engineering organization.
• Shape our roadmap: Collaborate with your squad and engineering leadership to define the platform's direction - from scalable, high-throughput systems and cost optimization to security posture and compliance.
  
  

What you bring to the table

We're looking for a hands-on, product-minded engineer who is passionate about high-throughput, highly available systems - and who cares about reliability as much as velocity.

Must-Have Qualifications

• You have 1–3 years of hands-on experience as a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), Platform Engineer, DevOps Engineer, Infrastructure Engineer, Cloud Engineer, or Backend Engineer with a strong infrastructure focus.
• Experience operating and scaling cloud infrastructures (Azure, GCP, AWS).
• Deep knowledge of Kubernetes and container orchestration in production environments.
• Hands-on experience with modern observability stacks (e.g. Prometheus, Mimir, Loki, ELK) and comfortable defining and operating SLOs and error budgets.
• Solid software development skills in Go (preferred, since our IaC runs on Pulumi in Go), Python or Kotlin.
• Hands-on experience with infrastructure as code (e.g. Pulumi, OpenTofu, Terraform) and configuration tooling (e.g. Ansible, Chef).
• A collaborative mindset, strong communication skills and business-fluent English.
• Willingness to participate in on-call rotations to ensure the reliability of our platform.
  
  

Nice-to-Have Qualifications

• Familiarity with GitOps workflows and CI/CD pipeline design.
• Knowledge of service mesh technologies (e.g. Linkerd, Istio).

• Experience with operating High-Availability PostgreSQL
