Site Reliability Engineer
Close- Full Time
- Junior (1 to 2 years)
Employment Type: Full-Time Location Type: Remote
Sleeper is a rapidly growing platform for sports fans with messaging and gameplay at its core. We’re reimagining how fans interact with sports—from season-long fantasy leagues to daily gaming formats—with a seamless, social-first experience that puts the user first.
Behind the scenes, Sleeper is powered by a modern, scalable tech stack. While much of our backend is Elixir-driven, this role sits at the intersection of Python-based data services, our Elixir backend, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and distributed analytics infrastructure. You’ll help us ensure our trading systems are robust, our pricing is real-time, and our risk engines are resilient.
We are seeking a DevOps/QA Engineer with a passion for automation, quality, and observability to join our Risk & Trading team. You’ll work on critical infrastructure and testing pipelines that power Sleeper’s real-money gaming experience—helping to scale pricing engines, maintain system reliability, and build the tooling to detect anomalies before users ever feel them.
Sleeper keeps its team intentionally small so every engineer has outsized product impact. You’ll work alongside designers, data scientists, and trading experts—all focused on one mission: connecting people through sports. We believe in equitable pay and an inclusive workplace.
Competitive salary plus benefits including Medical, Dental, PTO, 401k.
Note: Compensation will consider skills, experience, and market data. Sleeper is an Equal Opportunity Employer and provides reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities. To learn more, visit sleeper.com.
