The Site Reliability Engineer (Manufacturing Infrastructure) joins the application software team to manage the compute, storage, and networking infrastructure supporting Starship, Starlink, Starshield, and Terafab. This role focuses on ensuring factory uptime and production scale by deploying, upgrading, and maintaining manufacturing systems through proactive maintenance, capacity planning, and lifecycle management. The engineer will utilize infrastructure as code tools like Terraform, Ansible, or Puppet, alongside containerization technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes, while managing databases like Postgres and Clickhouse. Key responsibilities include designing for reliability, performing blameless postmortems, and providing high-quality support to manufacturing stakeholders. Candidates must possess software development experience and proficiency with Linux operating systems.
