Ever wondered what powers breakthrough research in energy, physics, materials science, and chemistry? You're looking at it. This national HPC facility supports 11,000+ scientists pushing the boundaries of what's possible, and we need a sharp, self-motivated SRE to help keep that engine running without interruption.

If you love solving real problems on live infrastructure, thrive on ownership, and want your work to directly enable world-class science, this is your seat.

Build automation that prevents issues before they become outages
Develop new tools and integrations across the monitoring pipeline (APIs → alerts → action)
Walk the data center floor to keep power, cooling, and environmental systems humming
Coordinate maintenance activities across teams and keep incidents accurately tracked
Dig into complex, ambiguous problems and drive them to resolution

What You Bring

Comfort working Owl shift (12am–8am), 5 days/week, hybrid onsite in Berkeley, CA
Solid Linux/command-line (SSH) chops
Programming/scripting experience: Python, C, C++, Perl, or Java
A self-starter mindset, eager to pick up Kubernetes, Prometheus/VictoriaMetrics, Alertmanager, and building management/cooling systems
Network security fundamentals (ACLs, firewalls)
Strong cross-team communication and collaboration skills

Nice to Have
