Senior Site Reliability Engineer

Texas Sports Academy is a K-12 school designed for serious student-athletes who want both elite academics and high-level athletic development. Students learn twice as fast as traditional schools in just 2 hours a day, using the same 2-Hour Learning model as Alpha School. We are an AI-first school where AI is woven into how students learn, how the team works, and how we build and scale everything we do. That frees up their entire afternoon for serious training, where they work alongside former pro and D1 athletes coaching them at the highest standard.

We are hiring a Senior Site Reliability Engineer on a part-time consulting contract to audit our systems and make the changes required to keep them running as we scale. You will look at everything: infrastructure, deployment, monitoring, incident response, on-call, and how our internal tools actually behave under load. You will document what you find in clean, direct written audits, and you will ship the code and configuration changes needed to fix what is broken.

What You'll Do* Audit Our Systems End to End: Look at our infrastructure, deployment pipelines, monitoring, alerting, and incident response. Find where we are brittle, where we will break at the next scale step, and where we are wasting money. * Write Clear Audit Reports: Document what you found, why it matters, and how to fix it. Written work that our engineering team can act on directly. * Ship the Fixes: Do not stop at recommendations. Write the code, ship the config changes, and stand up the monitoring, alerting, and deployment improvements yourself where it makes sense. * Level Up Our Reliability Practices: Help us mature how we handle on-call, incidents, SLOs, and postmortems. Bring in the standards you know work at scale. * Advise on Architecture for Scale: Look ahead at where we are going and flag the infrastructure decisions we need to make now to be ready. * Partner With Our Engineering Team: Work directly with our engineers.
