Sr. Site Reliability Engineer

Founded in 2017, Obsidian Security was created to close a critical gap: securing the SaaS applications where modern business happens—platforms like Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and hundreds more.

Backed by top investors including Greylock, Norwest Venture Partners, and IVP, we’ve built a complete SaaS security platform to reduce risk, detect and respond to threats, and prevent breaches at the source.

Now, we’re transforming how SaaS is secured—in the era of agentic AI.

Today, Obsidian is trusted by global enterprises such as Snowflake, T‑Mobile, and Pure Storage. We protect more than 200 organizations across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand—including many of the world’s largest Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 companies.

At Obsidian, our Sr. Site Reliability Engineers ensure the reliability, scalability, and operational excellence of a complex multi‑tenant SaaS platform serving enterprise and financial customers. As an SRE, you will work closely with Dev Ops, Platform Engineering, and product teams to improve system observability, incident response, and service resilience across the platform.

This is a hands‑on engineering role focused on building operational excellence through monitoring, automation, debugging, and continuous improvement. You will help ensure that issues are detected and addressed quickly while contributing to systems that improve platform reliability at scale
