Job description

About the Role

As Production Support Engineer, you will be part of a multi-tiered support team whose primary responsibilities include minimizing downtime and optimizing production uptime. You will be the bridge between code and customer. This is an in-person role in our Chicago office. 

What You'll Do

The Production Support Engineer will

  • Act as the primary incident commander for high-severity outages, orchestrating the technical response and maintaining clear lines of communication with stakeholders.
  • Lead blameless post-mortem sessions to dissect failures. Be responsible for translating technical items into documented systemic improvements.
  • Perform in-depth troubleshooting and analysis to resolve bugs, identify workflow enhancements and other functional errors.
  • Own and evolve the observability strategy. Move us from reactive alerts to predictive insights.
  • Dive into Ruby code, review GitHub PRs, manage feature flags, and run production jobs to keep things moving.
  • Lead problem management. Identify systemic trends and partner with Product teams to prioritize permanent fixes over temporary band-aids.
  • Drive continuous improvement by identifying and implementing enhancements to support tools, workflows, and documentation.
  • Drive critical escalations in technically challenging situations in collaboration with engineering, product, and other IT teams.

What We Look For

  • 5+ years of experience in a high-stakes Production/SRE role, with deep expertise in AWS (ECS, Lambda, CloudWatch) and SQL.
  • Expert-level experience with Observability/APM tools
  • A strong development background. You are comfortable reading and debugging Ruby or JavaScript and navigating GitHub workflows.
  • Proven experience in incident command. You know how to manage a bridge, silence the noise and drive a team toward a resolution under heavy pressure.
  • Highly organized with a strong work ethic, sharp attention to detail, and a proactive mindset.
  •  A "Bias for Action." You can navigate ambiguity, manage your own project timelines, and stay calm while the "house is on fire.".
  • You can translate a complex system failure into a clear, business-value narrative for non-technical executives.
