The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Rite Aid is hiring a Site Reliability Engineer in Lynchburg, VA.

• Role description

  We're hiring a Site Reliability Engineer who treats latency budgets like personal grudges and Facilitation like a second language. The mid-level Site Reliability Engineer role rewards range — Amazon ECS, Facilitation, 3 years — with $78,000 - $106,000 and a seat that grows beyond it.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Build the results-oriented Amazon EKS feature that wins back the VA accounts Rite Aid lost
  • Turn vague technology tickets into crisp, testable CloudFormation acceptance criteria
  • Tune OpenShift queries until the VA database stops timing out under load
  • Design, build, and maintain reliable backend services using Amazon ECS and OpenShift
  • Negotiate Amazon EKS tradeoffs with product when Rite Aid timelines and reality collide
  • Own the Amazon ECS release that Lynchburg leadership has circled on the calendar

  What You'll Bring

  • Enough Cost Optimization to be dangerous, enough Grafana to be trusted
  • A growth mindset that treats feedback as fuel, not threat
  • 3 years that taught you which corners can be cut
  • Bachelor's degree in a related field, or equivalent practical experience

  Run from a single floor in Lynchburg, VA, Rite Aid is a generously-mentoring reminder that technology breakthroughs still start small. You won't find performance theater here; we care what you shipped, not how busy you looked.

  Expect a $78,000 - $106,000 base, a growth path with milestones, a mentor who shows up, and benefits that make staying at Rite Aid easy.
