A live role
Staff Site Reliability Engineer, Environment Automation
from GitLab · read the original and apply on their site
Bangalore, India
Our take: The real work here is automating the entire lifecycle of hundreds of GitLab environments so manual operations disappear and everything stays reliable at scale.
If you love making manual operations disappear, this role hands you hundreds of GitLab environments to provision, upgrade, and heal entirely through code. You will live in Terraform, Kubernetes, and Prometheus, chasing down why deployments fail at scale and building the automation that stops them failing again. It is remote, high-stakes when things break, and deeply satisfying for someone who would rather write a pipeline than repeat a task.
