Staff Software Engineer, Robinhood Command Center joins a newly formed reliability team serving as the front line for detecting, coordinating, and mitigating production incidents across the organization. This role focuses on incident leadership, operational excellence, and reliability tooling rather than owning specific product services or core infrastructure. You will lead incident mitigation efforts, develop management processes, and own discovery by maintaining global dashboards and alerts tied to critical user journeys. Key responsibilities include designing failure mitigation strategies, improving monitoring and observability across hundreds of systems, and driving post-incident governance. The role requires expertise in distributed systems, fault-tolerant architecture design, and multi-region failover strategies. You will utilize modern observability stacks including OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and Grafana to improve metrics like MTTD and MTTR while providing executive-level reporting on service quality and reliability.
