Site Reliability Engineer Jobs in Bothell, WA (NOW HIRING)

As a Senior SRE on the APX SRE CloudOps team, you will design and build the cloud infrastructure and automation platforms that Axon's product engineering teams depend on. You will architect solutions for multi-cloud environments (Azure, AWS), FedRAMP compliance boundaries, and large-scale Kubernetes platforms serving production workloads across multiple regions. You will spend a significant portion of your time writing code: building services, APIs, and internal tooling using languages like Go and Python. You will also participate in on-call rotations and incident response, using operational experience to drive reliability improvements and inform platform investment. This role combines software engineering depth with cloud architecture at scale and production ownership.
Location - This role is based out of our Atlanta, Seattle, or Boston office and follows a hybrid schedule. We rely on in-person collaboration and ask that team members work onsite Tuesdays through Fridays, with the flexibility to work remotely on Mondays, unless there is an approved workplace accommodation. We believe that connection fuels innovation, and our in-office culture is designed to foster meaningful teamwork, mentorship, and shared success.
