We are seeking a highly experienced and hands-on SRE to own the operational excellence of the modernized SaaS applications produced by the Banyan AI Factory. This is not a role focused on building the factory itself; instead, you will run the reliability of the modernized applications the factory delivers to our Operating Companies (OpCos).

You will join a team that provides 24x7 coverage with rotating on-call responsibilities, serving as Tier 1 Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) for our OpCos’ distributed applications. Day to day this will include: automated deployments, cloud service integration, application performance and availability monitoring/observability, and security incident response across our two target clouds — Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure. The ideal candidate has a track record of keeping secure, highly available production systems running at scale.

• 24x7 Operations & On-Call:
  Operate as part of a team providing round-the-clock coverage of OpCo containerized applications, participating in a rotating on-call schedule to ensure continuous availability and rapid response.
• Tier 1 SRE & Operations:
  Serve as Tier 1 SRE for the modernized applications, managing day-to-day cloud integrations across our two target clouds — AWS and Azure — to keep production systems healthy, performant, and secure.
• Performance & Availability Monitoring/Observability:
  Implement and maintain robust application observability tooling (monitoring, logging, tracing) to track performance and availability, proactively detect degradation, and drive down mean-time-to-detect and mean-time-to-resolve.
• Disaster Recovery and Service Restoration:
  Develop, maintain, test, and execute disaster recovery and business continuity procedures. Ensure the timely recovery and restoration of services following geographic disruptions, cyber incidents, infrastructure failures, or other disaster events.
• Security Incident Response:
  Respond to security incidents and operational events affecting OpCo SaaS platforms, executing established runbooks, coordinating remediation
• Automation & Infrastructure-as-Code :
  Use Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Git Hub Actions, Git Lab CI) to manage, deploy, and automate the operational environments of modernized applications, reducing toil and improving consistency.
• AI Agents & Dev Sec Ops  Scale:
  Build scale in our Dev Sec Ops  practice by designing, building, and operating AI agents that automate SRE tasks and incident response, reducing toil and accelerating detection, triage, and remediation.
• Hands-on Problem Solving:
  Serve as a technical escalation point for operational challenges, applying strong analytical skills to resolve infrastructure, network, and automation issues across distributed, multi-tenant SaaS environments while navigating technical ambiguity.

• Experience:
