POSITION OVERVIEW
At Guidewire, we make software that offers Property and Casualty (P&C) Insurance companies the
tools to take care of their customers when they need it the most, whether that’s a time of crisis, a
natural disaster, an accident, or exposure to cyber risks. We build the core applications that
insurance companies use to sell and underwrite policies, settle claims, and bill their customers. We
also have a portfolio of innovative products serving the needs of P&C insurance companies in areas
such as data management, digital online portals, and predictive analytics. We run these products on
the Guidewire Cloud Platform, and we help hundreds of insurance providers all over the world to
handle billions of dollars of business.
We are proud to be voted a Top Cloud Employer on Glassdoor by our own employees and positioned
as a market leader by industry experts like Gartner. We have a fun work environment and a culture
that lives by our core values of integrity, rationality, and collegiality.
We’re searching for people who are as passionate about working together to deliver quality products
and support as we are. Join us and enjoy a career where you can make an impact. You’ll be inspired
by those around you, and you’ll be trusted and empowered to go further.
As a Site Reliability Engineer, you will be part of a team that is passionately automating everything
possible to make Guidewire systems run more efficiently. The Platform team is dedicated full-time
to creating and running software that improves the reliability of systems in production, serving
hundreds of customers and supporting millions of transactions each day. You will be ensuring the
reliability of Guidewire’s flagship cloud platform and Insurance Suite products and building tooling to
help ensure efficient operations and optimal availability of all SaaS multi-tenant and customer-
focused systems. Platform SREs collaborate closely with Guidewire’s core product developers to
ensure that the Guidewire core cloud products address functional and non-functional requirements
such as availability, performance, observability, and maintainability.
This role requires a high degree of collaboration, teamwork, ownership and responsibility. If you like
to be challenged and have a passion for solving problems at scale with systems like AWS,
Kubernetes and Aurora, then we would love to hear from you. The ideal candidate is someone who
exemplifies the ethics of, "If you have to do something more than once, automate it," and who can
rapidly self-educate on new concepts and tools. Bonus points if you have prior experience doing
production support of a SaaS platform and are comfortable working with bleeding edge highly
containerized cloud-native environments in AWS.
