Some engineers tolerate complexity; the Site Reliability Engineer we want at Discovery hunts it down and refactors it out of existence. The reward structure favors doers: $157,000 - $211,000 upfront, real technology ownership, and a Discovery team pulling the same direction.
Key Responsibilities
- Translate fuzzy product wishes from Discovery stakeholders into shippable Disaster Recovery services
- Lead Kubernetes design reviews that catch the costly mistakes before Oakland, CA builds them
- Harden Discovery's Growth Mindset auth so the CA audit comes back clean
- Build responsive, accessible front-end interfaces with Growth Mindset
- Spike a Grafana proof of concept fast when Discovery needs a yes-or-no answer
- Guard the Organization codebase quality through reviews that teach as much as they catch
- Stand up observability so Discovery sees failures before customers in CA do
- Drive the Organization incident postmortem that stops the Oakland outage from recurring
What You'll Bring
- Hands-on command of Disaster Recovery, with Organization as a close second
- A portfolio that speaks louder than any line on your resume
- 5+ years building trust the slow, unglamorous way
- An appetite for ownership that scales with the stakes
- Written communication clear enough to survive a forwarded email chain
- Hands-on familiarity with Disaster Recovery, sharpened by Organization side projects
- Proven leadership experience guiding senior-level initiatives
The clarity-seeking founders of Discovery built it in Oakland to fix the exact technology problems that drove them crazy elsewhere. We trust the senior folks closest to the customer to make the call without a committee.
We trade fair $157,000 - $211,000 for your talent and throw in mentorship, benefits, and a flexibility policy people actually use.
