Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of Braze as an employer.

What you need

  • 5+ years of experience as a DevOps or Site Reliability Engineer in a high-scale production environment
  • Deep hands-on experience configuring, troubleshooting, and operating high-performance NGINX
  • In-depth, hands-on proficiency with Kubernetes administration and orchestration
  • Excellent understanding of Linux/Unix internals
  • Strong programming/scripting skills in Ruby and/or Go (or equivalent languages)
  • Experience managing infrastructure using IaC technologies such as Terraform or Ansible

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with data-tier architectures like Redis, Kafka, Postgres, or MongoDB
  • Experience with monitoring and observability platforms like Prometheus or Grafana
  • Practical experience in major cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure)

What you get

  • Competitive compensation that may include equity
  • Retirement and Employee Stock Purchase Plans
  • Flexible paid time off
  • Comprehensive benefit plans covering medical, dental, vision, life, and disability
  • Family services including fertility benefits and equal paid parental leave

Worth weighing

  • No specific mention of the technology stack beyond NGINX and Kubernetes, which may indicate a focus on legacy systems
  • The role requires a high level of autonomy and accountability, which may not suit all candidates
  • The pay range is broad, and actual compensation may vary significantly based on individual factors
