Staff Site Reliability Engineer-Observability

Location: India

Department: IT Ops

Location Details: India, Remote 

At GoDaddy the future of work looks different for each team. Some teams work in the office full-time; others have a hybrid arrangement (they work remotely some days and in the office some days) and some work entirely remotely.​

This is a remote position, so you’ll be working remotely from your home. You may occasionally visit a GoDaddy office to meet with your team for events or meetings.

Join Our Team...

GEDE (Global Edge and Domains Engineering) keeps GoDaddys domains, edge, and aftermarket platforms running for millions of customers. Within GEDE, the Reliability Engineering team (Domains Production Engineering) is the group that gets the call when something breaks — and, more importantly, builds the systems that mean it breaks less often. We own the monitoring, compliance, and patching toolchain for the whole Domains infrastructure footprint, provide advanced incident support, and are actively modernizing how the org detects, diagnoses, and even auto-remediates issues with AI-assisted tooling!

What youll get to do...

• Build and evolve observability using Prometheus/Mimir, the Grafana LGTM stack, Elastic/OTEL, and Site24x7 — closing gaps across the org.
• Steer our cloud migration journey and bolster our efforts to keep the services reliable and performant.
• Own patching compliance and vulnerability remediation at scale across a mixed on-prem + AWS fleet, hitting hard SLA targets. Operate and extend our multi-tenant Kubernetes/ArgoCD platform, including the migration of core services.
• Contribute to our AI/automation initiatives: auto-generating runbooks from Prometheus alerts, change-risk scoring, and other tooling that reduces toil for the whole team
• Consult with partner dev teams on metrics, alert thresholds, and monitoring standards — this is a platform-enablement role, not just a ticket queue. Mentor other engineers on the team and help mature our operational practices.

Your experience should include...

• 8+ years of hands-on experience working with AWS, both in cloud-native and agnostic capacities.
• 5+ years of experience with Kubernetes (EKS/AKS/GKE/Fargate, etc.).
• 4+ years of expertise in Linux administration.
• Strong coding skills in languages such as Go, Python, Ruby etc.
• Strong experience in coding infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible, CDK, etc.).

You might also have...

• Strong understanding of CI/CD concepts, version control systems, and testing tools (e.g., Jenkins, Gradle, Maven).
• Hands-on experience with SQL databases, especially MySQL or PostgreSQL.
• Verified background in developing and maintaining distributed infrastructure and systems.
• Proven understanding of networking principles and a strong dedication to cybersecurity guidelines.
• Ability to work independently and perform effectively under pressure.

We encourage you to apply even if your experience or skillset doesn’t align perfectly with every requirement. We value a wide range of backgrounds and transferable skills, and we are excited to support learning and growth.

Weve got your back... We offer a range of total rewards that may include paid time off, retirement savings (e.g., 401k, pension schemes), bonus/incentive eligibility, equity grants, participation in our employee stock purchase plan, competitive health benefits, and other family-friendly benefits including parental leave. GoDaddy’s benefits vary based on individual role and location and can be reviewed in more detail during the interview process.
