Description from Lightspeed's career page
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by 👋
Are you actively looking for a new opportunity? Or just checking the market? Well… you might just be in the right place!
We’re looking for a
Staff Site Reliability Engineer
to join our
Data team
in Canada.
As a Staff Data SRE, you are the technical backbone of the Data Office's infrastructure platform. Your scope spans the entire Data Business Unit — you solve systemic, platform-level problems, not individual tickets. You own the reliability, scalability, and developer experience of the data platform, and you act as a force multiplier: making the engineers around you faster, the systems more resilient, and the platform easier to consume.
You bring deep GCP expertise and a product mindset to data infrastructure. You are comfortable navigating ML/AI workload requirements (Vertex AI, feature stores, training pipelines) and can reason confidently about the BI tooling and data layers that feed it (Looker, BigQuery). Your decisions carry weight across teams, and you communicate them clearly to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders.
Please note this role is based in Montreal, Canada
What you’ll be doing:
You will own and be accountable for advancing the Data Office infrastructure engineering practices and delivering high-leverage platform projects. Your time will be distributed as follows:
70% – Hands-On Engineering & Platform Ownership: Design and deliver significant infrastructure improvements. You write production-quality IaC (Terraform)
