Job Description

The world's leading game engine is looking for brilliant engineers for our Site Reliability Engineering organization. Unity customers don't like service disruptions, and neither do we. Our mission is to manage production incidents with technology. We build automation to measure, detect, and prevent production issues. When needed, we use experience and communication to work with other teams to resolve issues manually, and then make sure it doesn't happen again!

As Site Reliability Engineers we believe strongly in the following:

* Unity customers demand healthy services
* Everything should be measurable
* Everything should be automated
* Alerts must be actionable
* Processes must be sensible, valuable, & repeatable
* Don't reinvent the wheel

There are SRE teams in San Helsinki, Shanghai and Bellevue, WA. We work four 10 hour days per week (4x10), which requires working specific hours and one weekend day. It's better than it sounds.

Responsibilities

* Develop services for automatically detecting and eliminating service disruptions
* Manage large scale, cross-team production incidents when automation is insufficient
* Participate in defining Site Reliability policy, process, technology, and best practices
* Advocate for infrastructure improvements and best practices across Unity Engineering

Requirements

* Experience managing production (cloud-based) infrastructure at scale
* Deep knowledge of infrastructure core components: storage, system and/or networking
* Proficiency with modern scripting languages like Golang and Python
* Knowledge of infrastructure-as-code tools like Salt and Terraform
* Healthy obsession with metrics and measurement
* Strong verbal and written communication skills
* Composed urgency in stressful situations

Bonus Points

* Experience with, or strong interest in, Docker and Kubernetes
* Understanding of continuous integration / continuous deployment
* Contribution to open source projects and/or an interesting Github page
* Real world experience with Big Data technologies like Kafka and Spark
