Lead Production Engineer, Java Systems

We’re looking for strong Java engineers who’ve owned production systems and want to focus on reliability, scalability, and resilience.

This is for you if you’ve:

• Built and operated large-scale Java/JVM services
• Carried on-call and handled real production incidents
• Debugged JVM, GC, latency, and concurrency issues under pressure
• Implemented resilience patterns (circuit breakers, timeouts, graceful degradation)

What you’ll do:

• Own availability, latency, and reliability of critical services
• Improve systems through code-level reliability, not just infra
• Define SLIs/SLOs, lead incident reviews, reduce toil
• Partner with product teams to design for failure

Reliability mindset (what differentiates this role)

• Experience implementing or driving:

Circuit breakers, bulkheads, rate limiting...
