Requirements

We're looking for a seasoned SRE with a front-end focus, expert in React applications, to join our SRE team. In this role you'll ensure the reliability, performance, and operability of our React-based user interfaces running on AWS and Kubernetes. You'll lead incident response for client-side issues, diagnose end-to-end failures in the stack, and build tooling to automate detection and self-healing.

Key Responsibilities

Incident Response & Troubleshooting

+ Act as primary on-call for React application incidents: crashes, memory leaks, performance regressions, or deployment failures. + Analyze browser logs, application metrics (e.g. Real User Monitoring), and backend traces to isolate root causes across

React

,

Node.js

services,

AWS

, and

Kubernetes

layers.
+ Orchestrate post-incident reviews: document findings, define mitigation plans, and drive tickets to resolution.

Reliability Engineering & Automation

+ Develop and maintain robust observability for front-end components: integrate Datadog for obervability + Define SLIs/SLOs for page load times, Time to Interactive, and error rates; build alerting that balances sensitivity with noise reduction.
+ Automate deployments via CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions), including end-to-end tests, canary releases, and rollbacks for React apps.

Infrastructure & Scaling

+ Design and operate Kubernetes (EKS) clusters hosting Node.js microservices and SSR/Next.js rendering tiers. + Implement auto-scaling policies and ensure blue/green or rolling updates minimize user disruption.
+ Manage AWS

infrastructure

(EC2, ALB, CloudFront, S3) to optimize content delivery and reliability of front-end assets.

Performance Optimization

+ Profile and tune React applications: code-splitting, lazy loading components, optimizing bundle sizes, and minimizing hydration times. + Leverage caching strategies (CDN invalidation, HTTP caching headers) to reduce latency and origin load.
+ Collaborate with UX teams to balance feature richness with performance targets.

Collaboration & Knowledge Sharing

+ Serve as the React/SRE subject-matter expert: mentor engineers on best practices for building resilient front-ends. + Produce and maintain runbooks, debugging guides, and incident-playbooks specific to client-side failures.
+ Partner closely with wider backend SRE, DevOps, and product teams to ensure end-to-end reliability.
