Remote flexibility

Undisclosed

The listing is advertised as remote but does not state which countries or regions candidates may work from.

Why this role is Undisclosed

We only label a role Work from anywhere, Region restricted or Work from home when the employer's own wording says so. We checked this advert under our current rules and found no country or region eligibility requirement in it. We don't guess, so it stays Undisclosed until the employer publishes enough location information. Here is exactly what the advert left out.

Countries you can work from: Not stated. The advert only gives "Remote", which names no country you must live in.
Whether the work is remote: Confirmed by the employer: "Material Security is a remote-first workplace"
Working hours: Not stated. No timezone overlap or set hours are mentioned, so assume nothing either way.

Worth a look all the same. Missing wording is usually a rushed job posting rather than a closed door, so ask where you can be based in your first message, before you write a tailored application.

What the employer says

The advert does not say whether this is employment or a contractor arrangement. Ask, as it affects tax and benefits.

About the role

As a Site Reliability Engineer at Material Security, you'll own the reliability of the infrastructure every product team builds on, including GCP, Kubernetes, and Postgres across hundreds of GCP projects. This is a software engineering role, where you’ll be building systems and the culture that removes manual on-call work, fixes the underlying causes of alerts, and gives engineers a clear view of system health. You'll work with every team and work with leadership to decide where things go..

Responsibilities

Design and build software that removes manual on-call intervention and recurring sources of toil.

Lead infrastructure projects end to end.

Find where cost-driven limits create latency or reliability problems, and fix the trade-off.

Build tooling that shows system health across our GCP projects at a glance.

Define SLOs with product teams and raise the bar on reliability practice across engineering.

Pioneer reliability engineering for agent-first production systems.

What We’re Looking For

Technical Ability : Solid software engineering fundamentals and raw coding ability. Production code is your default way of solving a problem.

Infrastructure Depth : Hands-on experience running GCP (or a comparable cloud) and Kubernetes at production scale, including autoscaling and capacity management.

Automation First : You have built tools and automation that other engineers depended on, not just runbooks that describe a manual fix.

Ownership : Comfortable driving ambiguous, cross-team reliability work on your own, from diagnosis to a shipped fix.
