The Team You'll be joining our dedicated Observability Team , which builds the observability platform and SRE tooling used to monitor Glia’s cloud-native core infrastructure serving the conversational AI. Our team focuses on enablement and automation: we provide the standards, tooling, and platform that engineering teams use to keep their own systems available and performing optimally. The Mission & The Work As a Site Reliability Engineer on this team, your focus will be on building SRE and observability tooling — the platform, automation, and standards other teams use to keep their services healthy. This is a tooling and enablement role, not a production operations role: you will not be directly operating Glia’s production services.
Responsibilities will include: Developing standards, infrastructure and automation for dashboards, alerts, and monitors as code. Partnering with development teams to establish production readiness and operational readiness. Building the tooling and templates teams use to define, measure, and report on Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and Service Level Indicators (SLIs) for their services. Developing tooling to automate observability and operational workflows, eliminating manual toil for engineering teams. Building and improving the incident response tooling and workflows that help teams resolve outages faster and learn from them. Our Collaboration Model Glia Engineering is remote-first, spanning Canada, Portugal, Poland, and Estonia. The Observability team is based in Estonia, with optional offices in Tallinn and Tartu. We thrive on flexible remote collaboration, but we still bring the whole team together in Estonia twice a year for in-person innovation and connection. Our tech stack Infrastructure: AWS, Kubernetes (AWS EKS), Istio, EFK Persistence: Amazon Aurora Serverless for Postgres, RabbitMQ, Amazon RDS Cache: Amazon ElastiCache Monitoring & Observability: DataDog with a focus on dashboards and alerts for system health CI/CD: Github Actions, ArgoCD, Jenkins, Helm, with a focus on automation and pipeline optimization. Infrastructure as Code: Terraform Additionally, our Engineering teams use: Backend: Python, Elixir, Node.js , Ruby, Go Frontend: Javascript and React.js Native mobile SDKs: Java and Swift What We’re Looking for Expert-level proficiency with AWS and Kubernetes (EKS), particularly in areas of observability, networking, and auto-scaling. Experience with modern observability platforms (e.g., DataDog, Prometheus) and a deep understanding of metrics, logging, and tracing. Deep, practical understanding of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles (SLOs, error budgets, toil reduction). Demonstrable experience analyzing and troubleshooting large-scale distributed systems. Strong software development skills in a language like Python or Go, used to build operational tools, services, or automation. Expertise in designing and operating robust CI/CD pipelines for a microservices architecture (e.g., using ArgoCD, Github Actions, Helm). A systematic, data-driven approach to problem-solving and root cause analysis. Proficiency in using AI tools thoughtfully, maintaining ownership of the final output while recognizing the tools' limitations. Glia is an equal-opportunity employer.
