  • Participate in shared on-call responsibilities.
  • Contribute upstream changes to the open-source projects utilized.

Qualifications:

  • 7+ years of experience in developing software for internet-scale applications, particularly in infrastructure contexts.
  • Familiarity with distributed systems development; experience with tools such as Prometheus, Thanos, Grafana, Vector, Clickhouse, OTEL, and Loki is advantageous.
  • Experience in developing applications on Kubernetes or similar distributed systems.
  • Experience in Kubernetes controller or operator development is a significant plus.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills related to both systems and software.
  • Proven experience in engineering large systems, managing projects, and being proactive in project initiation.
  • Excellent communication skills for effective collaboration within a service-oriented team.

Benefits:

  • 401k Matching
  • Home office workspace benefits
  • Family Planning Support
  • Flexible Vacation Policy
  • Paid Volunteer Time Off

Compensation Transparency:

This position may encompass multiple career levels. In addition to the base salary, this role is eligible for equity in the form of restricted stock units, and may also include commission depending on the specific position. Reddit offers a comprehensive benefits package to U.S.-based employees, including medical, dental, and vision insurance, a 401(k) program with employer matching, generous vacation time, and parental leave.

Commitment to Diversity:

Reddit is dedicated to fostering a diverse workforce that reflects the communities we serve. We strive to create an inclusive environment where employees represent a variety of perspectives and experiences.
