  • Expect to rotate between greenfield infrastructure buildouts, pipeline and tooling improvements, and the occasional deep incident investigation.

Responsibilities

  • lead or co-lead incidents and write blameless postmortems with concrete follow up.
  • Use AI tooling pragmatically and at a professional level: to accelerate code generation, infrastructure design, debugging, documentation, and review. We expect engineers to be AI-first in how they approach their craft.

  • Experience working with relational databases is an asset, PostgreSQL is ideal but not required.

  • The ability to provision infrastructure and debug complex distributed systems is our top priority for this role.
  • Hands-on Kubernetes experience: You can deploy, operate, and debug workloads on Kubernetes.
  • Terraform experience: You have written and maintained non-trivial Terraform.
  • Again, expertise is not required

  • Experience with GitHub Actions is strongly preferred

Company info

  • You will join as our Site Reliability Engineering function within the Human Risk Platform pillar, a team that sits at the center of how Mimecast builds, ships, and operates its cloud platform.
  • We do three things, and we do them at scale:
  • Cloud infrastructure: design, provision, and evolve the AWS foundations our product teams build on.
  • CI/CD: build and maintain the pipelines that move code safely and frequently from commit to production.
  • Observability: provide the logs, metrics, and traces that make our platform debuggable and trustworthy.
  • We have a few guiding principles that shape how we approach this work:
  • Builders own what they build. We work relentlessly to enable our team to safely access their own infrastructure, databases, and pipelines with auditability. Our job is to help teams help themselves, not to become a bottleneck.
  • Process and standardization are paramount. We avoid one-offs and special cases at almost any upfront cost, because repeatability compounds.
  • your race, age, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, ability, marital status, nationality, or any other protected characteristic won't affect your application.
  • If you require any adjustments or accommodations due to a disability, or any other reason that may help you in your interview process, please let us know by emailing careers@mimecast.com.
  • Due to certain obligations to our customers, an offer of employment will be subject to your successful completion of applicable background checks, conducted in accordance with local law.
  • It is unlawful in Massachusetts to require or administer a lie detector test as a condition of employment or continued employment.
