Location Details: Remote, India
This is a remote position, so you’ll be working remotely from your home. You may occasionally visit a GoDaddy office to meet with your team for events or meetings.
Join Our Team...
The Enablement team builds and operates the Linux Patching Automation (LPA) platform — a multi-cluster AWX automation system that keeps GoDaddy's entire Linux fleet patched and secure. Each cluster is a self-contained AWX instance, provisioned end-to-end via Terraform and Ansible on private infrastructure. The team owns observability tooling (Loki, Mimir, Grafana), ServiceNow integrations, and an automated vulnerability remediation process powered by artificial intelligence!
The platform is growing: new internal consumers, Kubernetes-aware patching, AI-driven vulnerability remediation, and an observability stack that needs real alerting. We're hiring a Senior SRE to own critical feature areas independentlywithin 12 months the expectation is SME status in two or more areas and active contribution to architectural decisions alongside the team's Staff leads!
What you'll get to do...
- Own the Kubernetes-aware patching path: cordon/drain/uncordon coordination, etcd quorum gating, per-cluster lock prioritisation, and deadlock prevention — the team's most technically demanding active work area.
- Own cluster onboarding end-to-end and drive lead time from weeks to days; identify friction points, document repeatable steps, and build runbooks so each successive onboarding is faster than the last.
- Own the Vault integration surface: AppRole credential management, PKI
