About the role
As a Release Engineer on the EngOps team, you will bring an SRE mindset to Supabase's release workflows, treating deployment pipelines, pre-production environments, and the control plane as core production systems. You will establish SLOs and error budgets, improve deployment observability, drive disaster recovery readiness, and streamline incident response to make deployments safe, observable, and rapidly recoverable at scale.
What you'll do
- Own the reliability of Supabase's deployment systems and control plane against clear SLOs and error budgets.
- Standardize and instrument deployment workflows to transform pre-production into a trustworthy signal.
- Drive disaster-recovery readiness and ensure environments can be reproducibly deployed from scratch.
- Build health and SLO monitoring using synthetic testing to catch regressions before customers do.
- Participate in on-call rotations, lead blameless postmortems, and automate procedures to reduce MTTR and toil.
- Define and track DORA delivery metrics, operational KPIs, and document operational break-glass runbooks.
What you bring
- 5+ years of experience in SRE, production operations, platform engineering, or release engineering.
- Track record operating production systems at scale and participating in on-call rotations.
- Fluency in SLOs, error budgets, DORA metrics, and observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, or Alertmanager.
- Hands-on expertise operating production environments on AWS (multi-account, IAM, VPC), Kubernetes, and IaC (Terraform or Pulumi).
- Experience leading incident response, conducting blameless postmortems, and scripting to eliminate toil.
- Proven ability to thrive in an asynchronous, globally distributed team environment.
