About the role

Responsibilities

  • Own critical production services end-to-end, from design and code review through deployment, operation, and incident response
  • Profile, benchmark, and rewrite hot paths to eliminate bottlenecks as Hebbia scales
  • Lead incident response and drive post-mortem culture, translating findings into code changes and architectural improvements rather than runbooks
  • Design and build observability frameworks from scratch, writing custom instrumentation, alerting logic, and debugging tooling
  • Define and enforce SLOs across platform services and build the feedback loops that keep engineering teams accountable
  • Own capacity planning and cost efficiency: model growth, right-size infrastructure, and write automation that prevents over-provisioning
  • Build robust, well-tested internal platforms and deployment tooling held to the same engineering standards as customer-facing code
  • Own and continuously improve CI/CD systems
  • Embed with product engineering teams as a peer software engineer, contributing directly to production codebases and co-designing systems for reliability
  • Partner on infrastructure security through threat modeling, hardening, and automated compliance tooling

Requirements

  • 5+ years software development with a track record of writing, shipping, and maintaining production services
  • Production-grade proficiency in at least one systems or backend language: Go, Python, C++, or Rust
  • Proven experience as a Production Engineer, SRE, or software engineer with a deep infrastructure focus
  • Deep understanding of distributed systems
  • Container orchestration expertise and hands-on experience debugging complex distributed failures in production
  • Working knowledge of OS-level concepts
  • Cloud platform fluency (AWS preferred)
  • Experience in building and maintaining observability stacks
  • Strong CI/CD pipeline expertise and a track record of improving developer velocity without sacrificing safety

Nice-to-Haves

  • Background at a company with a Production Engineering or software-focused SRE culture
  • Experience building platforms for AI/ML workloads or high-throughput document processing pipelines
