Sre Monitoring Engineer

We not only apply cutting-edge technology. We create it. At Cubbit, we're building the next generation of cloud storage: globally distributed, geo-distributed by design, and independent from hyperscalers. We're looking for a Mid-Level Site Reliability Engineer to join our Tech Operations team and help keep our platform resilient, scalable, and always available. You'll work at the intersection of software and infrastructure , collaborating with engineering teams to automate operations, improve observability, and solve complex production challenges before our users even notice them. If you enjoy building reliable systems, automating everything that shouldn't be done twice, and turning operational pain into engineering improvements, we'd love to meet you.

What you'll do
Keep Cubbit's geo-distributed platform healthy, reliable, and performant across production environments. Build automation that eliminates manual work and makes operations safer and faster. Investigate production incidents and complex customer escalations, perform root cause analysis, and turn learnings into long-term reliability improvements. Partner with Software Engineers to design systems that are reliable by default. Continuously improve CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows. Participate in the on-call rotation while helping make it quieter every week. Contribute to operational best practices, documentation, and a healthy engineering culture.

What you'll need
3+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, Platform Engineering, or similar roles. Strong Linux administration skills and a solid understanding of production environments. Hands-on experience with Kubernetes and containerized workloads. Experience with Infrastructure as Code tools (Pulumi preferred). Good understanding of networking fundamentals (DNS, TCP/IP, TLS, load balancing). Experience with monitoring and observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, ELK/OpenSearch, or similar. Scripting skills in Bash, Python, or similar languages. Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and modern deployment practices. Confidence troubleshooting production systems under pressure. Professional proficiency in English. You'll stand out if you have experience with: Technical Support (L2/L3), Technical Operations, or customer-facing infrastructure support. Managing complex production incidents and technical escalations. Distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, or S3-compatible object storage. GitOps practices and tools such as ArgoCD or Flux. Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP. Security best practices, infrastructure hardening, or open-source contribution. Thinks in systems, not just servers. Thrives in collaborative environments where engineering and operations work as one team. Enjoys working in a fast-paced scale-up environment, where priorities evolve, ownership is expected, and everyone contributes beyond their role. Stays calm when production gets noisy and enjoys solving problems that matter. Balances pragmatism with engineering excellence: you know when "good enough" is actually the best solution. Remote-friendly environment with flexible schedules Opportunity to contribute to one of Europe's most advanced cloud technologies Location Full remote work is welcome in Cubbit, and you can freely use the lounge area in one of our co-working partner offices worldwide. But remember that our headquarters, in the centre of Bologna, Italy, is always available for you.
