Senior Site Reliability Engineer – build beyond the ticket

Ready to take the technical lead without leaving the code behind?

At Stibo DX, you will shape technical direction, own production and build automation that removes toil, not just clear tickets. You will stay hands-on while taking the lead on technical initiatives, without moving into people management.

You will also get:

• Flexible hybrid working with a local presence in Málaga.
• AI as a daily force multiplier for coding, documentation and workflows.
• A competitive package and global collaboration, where we care about the engineering – and the people behind it.

We power creativity and collaboration through technology

Stibo DX is one of the market leaders in content management and digital asset management solutions for media. We work with businesses around the globe – from the world's biggest newspaper companies to national broadcasters. We make life easier for everyone who has a story to tell.

Work as one team across locations

You will join our SRE & Operations department, working from Málaga as part of our SRE / Cue Cloud Operations team. Together, we build and run the cloud infrastructure behind Cue for major media brands worldwide. We are about 10 people, including the Director of Operations, working across Europe and North America.

We have clear areas of ownership – from platform engineering and incident management to security, compliance, FinOps and customer-facing operational delivery – but we work together day to day.

We share what we know through our wiki, Confluence and runbooks. And when an incident happens, we look for what the system needs, not someone to blame. The point is to learn and make things better.

Real engineering. Not ticket farming

You will own both the day-to-day and longer-term reliability of Cue Cloud, working with SRE colleagues, product engineering and customer-facing teams.

A large and growing share of the work is software. Internal tools, automation and services are not side projects here – they are how we remove toil and help the team and wider organization scale.

You will:

• Run and improve AWS environments across EC2, S3, RDS and Kubernetes/EKS, building capacity and resilience, responding to incidents and continuously hardening production.
• Turn infrastructure and configuration into code with Terraform, Python, YAML and GitOps/CI-CD, improving standard cloud and container patterns and adapting them to customer workloads.
• Build and maintain tools, automation and services that cut repetitive work and make people more productive.
• Improve monitoring, alerting and troubleshooting across metrics, logs and traces, using SLOs, SLIs, Grafana, Prometheus, Thanos and Dynatrace to spot problems earlier and resolve them faster.
• Lead or co-lead initiatives from goal to delivery: work out what matters, sequence the work, bring stakeholders together, mentor colleagues and turn operational lessons into lasting platform and process improvements.

You bring experience – and share what you know

You have owned production in SRE, platform engineering, DevOps or a similar role. We care more about the depth of that experience than the title on your CV.

You spot problems early and follow them through to a lasting fix. You can explain a trade-off to an engineer or a non-engineering colleague, and you keep your head when production needs attention.

You are curious about new tools, pragmatic about what works and thoughtful about how you use AI. You help colleagues move forward through shared standards and mentoring – not by making every decision go through you.

We also imagine that you bring:

• Formal or informal leadership experience – as a tech lead, project owner, mentor or someone who brings people and stakeholders together to deliver.
• The ability to write software for automation and internal tooling; Python or Node.js is preferred, but other languages are welcome if you ship reliably.
• Hands-on cloud and container experience, ideally with AWS and Kubernetes; EKS experience is a plus.
• Confidence with Everything as Code, including Terraform, YAML and Git-based/GitOps workflows.
• Grounding in observability and production debugging; experience with equivalent tools is welcome.
• Fluency in spoken and written English and comfortable working internationally.
