About the role
Unify is redefining go-to-market with state-of-the-art AI. As a Senior SRE, you'll tackle the scaling and reliability challenges that come with adding terabytes of data monthly and supporting enterprise customers with demanding uptime requirements. You'll work across the stack-optimizing databases, hardening services, and building the automation and observability that keep Unify fast and reliable at scale.
Responsibilities
- Scale our data infrastructure: Optimize and extend our ClickHouse and PostgreSQL deployments-designing partitioning strategies, tuning queries, and improving replication and failover systems.
- Improve system performance: Profile and optimize critical paths across backend services, identify bottlenecks in data pipelines and API layers, and ship changes that improve latency and throughput.
- Build for reliability: Implement rate limiting, circuit breakers, graceful degradation, and other patterns that keep the platform stable under load and during partial failures.
- Automate everything: Write tooling that eliminates toil-automating deployments, scaling operations, backup verification, and incident remediation.
- Instrument and observe: Build out distributed tracing, metrics, and alerting that give engineers clear visibility into system behavior and accelerate debugging.
- Respond and learn: Participate in on-call rotations, run incident response, and drive blameless postmortems that prevent recurrence.
Requirements
- 5+ years of software engineering experience with a strong backend foundation, including 2+ years focused on reliability, infrastructure, or platform work.
- Hands-on experience operating databases at scale including query optimization, replication, and failover.
- Strong programming skills (Typescript, Python, Go, or similar) with experience building automation and tooling.
- Able to diagnose complex distributed systems issues under pressure and communicate clearly during incidents.
- Collaborative, low-ego attitude and desire to work in a fast-paced environment.
