At GoDaddy the future of work looks different for each team. Some teams work in the office full-time; others have a hybrid arrangement (they work remotely some days and in the office some days) and some work entirely remotely.​

This is a hybrid position. You’ll divide your time between working remotely from your home and an office, so you should live within commuting distance. Hybrid teams may work in-office as much as a few times a week or as little as once a month or quarter, as decided by leadership. The hiring manager can share more about what hybrid work might look like for this team.

Join our Team

We are looking for a Senior Site Reliability Engineer to join our team in India. In this role, you will help support and improve the reliability of our Linux-based database systems running in on-premises environments and local OpenStack cloud infrastructure, with a primary focus on relational databases and additional exposure to NoSQL platforms such as Apache Cassandra. This is a senior-level position for an engineer who is deeply hands-on, comfortable working independently, and experienced in supporting business-critical systems in production!

You will work closely with teams across Eastern European and Indian time zones, providing strong operational support, troubleshooting complex issues, and delivering assigned infrastructure and reliability projects from start to finish. This role is well suited for someone who enjoys solving difficult system problems, communicating clearly in a distributed environment, and taking ownership of execution without requiring close day-to-day direction.

What you'll get to do...

• Ensure reliability, stability, and performance of Linux-based database systems across on-premises and OpenStack cloud environments
• Troubleshoot complex issues across infrastructure, services, and database systems (both relational and NoSQL)
• Deliver infrastructure and operational improvement projects end-to-end, while contributing to root cause analysis and continuous improvements
• Automate operational tasks and maintain consistent, scalable environments using Bash and configuration management tools
• Collaborate with global teams across time zones, managing and communicating work through tools like Jira and Slack

Your experience should include...

• 6+ years of demonstrated experience in Linux systems administration (e.g., CentOS, AlmaLinux) with strong troubleshooting skills across system performance, logs, services, and root cause analysis
• Strong understanding of database systems in Linux environments, including MySQL (or variants) and PostgreSQL, with exposure to NoSQL systems such as Apache Cassandra
• Experience supporting infrastructure in on-premises and/or OpenStack-based cloud environments, with the ability to analyse interactions between database behaviour and system performance
• Proficiency in Bash scripting and working knowledge of CM tools (e.g., Puppet) to support consistent and scalable environments

You might also have...

• Experience supporting Apache Cassandra in production
• Experience supporting JVM-based services in production environments
• Experience in large-scale or business-critical production operations
• Broader background in site reliability, infrastructure engineering, or production operations
• Experience improving operational processes, standards, or runbooks
