Build and maintain reliable, secure cloud infrastructure supporting Kubernetes-based distributed machine learning workloads and biosignal data. Lead infrastructure upgrades, security improvements, CI/CD, observability, incident response, and application reliability initiatives. Administer cloud platforms, automate infrastructure with code, participate in on-call rotations, collaborate with development teams, and document deployment and incident procedures.
Beacon Biosignals is transforming precision medicine for the brain, from clinical development to clinical care. For Life Sciences partners, we offer the leading at-home EEG platform for clinical development of novel therapeutics for neurological, psychiatric, and sleep disorders. Our Diagnostics business is building the most comprehensive at-home platform for precision diagnostics, combining EEG and cardiopulmonary signals to deliver reimbursable assessments for sleep and central nervous system disorders. Together, we're changing the way patients are diagnosed and treated for any disorder that affects brain physiology.
Beacon Biosignals is seeking a skilled Site Reliability Engineer to join our Platform team, to help ensure the reliability, availability, and security of Beacon's cloud infrastructure that supports large-scale machine learning on terabytes of biosignal data. In this role, you'll be responsible for building and maintaining critical systems, such as the Kubernetes clusters that power our data scientists' hefty distributed numerical workloads, and observability infrastructure that makes it easy for users to monitor, trace, and identify bugs and resource utilization issues.
Beacon's robust asynchronous work practices ensure a first-class remote work experience, but we also have in-person office hubs available located in Boston, New York and Paris.
What success looks like:
- Design and implement infrastructure as code solutions that improve reliability, security, and maintainability of our cloud infrastructure
- Lead and execute major infrastructure initiatives including cluster upgrades, security improvements, and architectural changes
- Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines that enable teams to deploy safely and efficiently
- Improve observability across our systems through enhanced monitoring, logging, and alerting
- Participate in an on-call rotation and lead incident response efforts when issues arise
- Collaborate with development teams to improve application reliability and performance
- Maintain and enhance our security posture through infrastructure hardening and automation
- Create and maintain documentation for infrastructure, deployment processes, and incident response procedures
What you will bring:
- Strong experience with Kubernetes administration, including cluster management, security, and troubleshooting
- Proven track record implementing infrastructure as code using Terraform or similar tools
- Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, particularly with GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, or ArgoCD
- Solid understanding of container technologies and build processes, especially Docker
- Strong cloud provider (e.g. AWS) knowledge including networking, security, and infrastructure services; experience with Azure is a plus
- Experience with incident response and on-call responsibilities in a production environment
- Deep experience with Linux systems administration and debugging; familiarity with Windows Server environments is a plus
- Proficiency in at least one programming language (Python, Go, Typescript etc.)
- Understanding of security and networking concepts including OAuth2/OIDC, DNS, TLS, TCP/UDP, etc
- Approximate experience: Bachelor's degree + 5-8 years of experience in SRE, DevOps, or other similar professional experience.
The base salary range for this role is $170,000 – $190,000. Salary ranges are determined using current market compensation data for this role and adjusted based on experience, skills, and location. The base salary is one component of the total compensation package, which includes equity, PTO, and other benefits.
At Beacon, we've found that cultural and scientific impact is driven most by those that lead by example. As such, we're always seeking new contributors whose work demonstrates an avid curiosity, a bias towards simplicity, an eye for composability, a self-service mindset, and - most of all - a deep empathy towards colleagues, stakeholders, users, and patients. We believe a diverse team builds more robust systems and achieves higher impact.
