But with exponential growth comes exponential risk, as outnumbered security teams struggle to secure mountains of code. This is where Snyk (pronounced “sneak”) comes in. Snyk is a developer security platform that makes it easy for development teams to find, prioritize, and fix security vulnerabilities in code, dependencies, containers, and cloud infrastructure — and do it all right from the start. Snyk is on a mission to make the world a more secure place by empowering developers to develop fast and stay secure.
No developer should have to choose between security and reliability. We will ensure that Snyk is dependable, with a reliable track record that encourages developers to embed Snyk in their workflows.
You will join a team that owns the reliability (SLOs) of key customer workflows and runs the applications that most influence Snyk’s reliability. You will be responsible for building a culture of high standards around reliability, observability, and resilience practices.
You’ll Spend Your Time:
- Pair-programming to collaboratively improve the services that power Snyk
- Establishing SLIs and SLOs for the key customer workflows that your team owns
- Diagnosing the factors that most threaten SLOs and identifying necessary improvements
- Improving observability, measurement and diagnostics for key customer SLIs and SLOs
- Creating and fine tuning error budgets, with dashboards and alerts to monitor them
- Reducing time to recover with faster deployment lead times
- Improving application design to partition workloads by customer criticality
- Sharing the practices and tooling you develop across other engineering teamsImplementing capacity management and load testing capabilities for core services
- Working with teams to ensure that monitoring and alerting are instrumented to be customer impact focused. The goal is that no one should get out of bed at 3am for non-customer facing issues
- Raising the bar on Production Readiness, Incident response and analysis, and working with R&D teams to meet this bar
- Participating in our on-call rotation (compensated)
What You’ll Need:
- Enjoy working as part of a team and teaching others
- Experience with infrastructure as code
- Familiarity with establishing SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, and metrics on a variety of user flows
- Have experience with software engineering and systems engineering
- Experience working with production databases
- Have experience with reducing toil required by internal teams through building and maintaining automation and observability tooling
- Experience of operational best practices including incident response and analysis
- Have experience running and operating software on Kubernetes
We’d be Lucky if You:
- Are passionate about all things security and reliability
- Are familiar with one of Typescript, Go
- Are familiar with Datadog, statsd
