Public Policy Institute is the kind of place where a junior's question can change the technology roadmap, and we want a Site Reliability Engineer who asks them. The deal favors the seasoned — 5 years earns $95,000 - $144,000, a temporary arrangement, and a technology charter you'll actually own.
Key Responsibilities
- Reach into legacy Serverless modules and leave them cleaner than you found them
- Work closely with data teams to surface insights from production systems
- Wrangle Redis config across environments so Pittsburgh staging mirrors production
- Drive the Serverless incident postmortem that stops the Pittsburgh outage from recurring
- Translate the bias-to-action Analytical Thinking outage into fixes that make the next Pittsburgh launch dull
- Integrate third-party services and internal tools into the Public Policy Institute stack
What You'll Bring
- Demonstrated capacity to mentor or support senior teammates
- Comfort owning a number that goes up or down because of you
- Proven aptitude for Terraform, ideally near Pittsburgh, PA
- Hands-on technology experience that holds up to follow-up questions
Everything Public Policy Institute ships starts as a bias-to-action argument in a Pittsburgh conference room about how Networking should really work. We give people autonomy early and trust them to ask for support when they need it.
The package is honest: $95,000 - $144,000, a benefits plan that works, mentorship that lasts, and the flexibility to live in Pittsburgh, PA.
This is an open, funded role that we intend to fill in the coming weeks.
Qualified candidates are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.
