As a member of the Avalara Reliability Engineering Leadership you will work with peers in Platform, Product SRE, Sustainment, Network and the Engineering Operations Center to transform our data strategy and processes into an automated and AI enabled global architecture.

Influence architecture and technology decisions across engineering, beyond your direct team
Key tools: MongoDB Atlas, Confluent Kafka, Redis, Snowflake, Grafana, Terraform, cloud-native DB services, Signal/Slack, AI/ML-based operational tooling, data layer as code

What You'll Need to be Successful

Significant database engineering/SRE experience, with experience transforming DBE technology and processes into an AI integrated solution.
Self-motivated engineering mindset - operates independently at the strategic level, sets direction rather than waiting for it
You are a manager of managers along with individual contributor across a globally distributed team who brings the vision of where our data layer is headed. You are a partner with other Reliability Engineering peer specializations, Data Science and BI, Security, Architecture and Development to build the Avalara data platform
Multi-cloud experience across at least 2-3 of: AWS, GCP, OCI, Azure - architecture, migration, and cost management
Deep technical fluency across relational, document, streaming/caching, and cloud data platforms to guide and unblock a senior technical team
Proven experience architecting for low-latency, high-TPS, active-active, multi-region systems
Track record driving automation maturity, ideally including AI/ML-assisted operations or self-healing systems
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience
