Tidewell · Leak detection and pressure monitoring for water utilities

About this job

Tidewell reads 400,000 pressure sensors in municipal water pipes and flags leaks before the street floods. Utilities in 60 towns rely on our alerts, so a missed reading at 3 a.m. matters more than a slow page load.

You'll be the third SRE on a platform team of seven. Your first 90 days: get the ingestion pipeline's alerting down to signals that need a human, write the runbooks we're missing, and lead a game day where we lose an AWS region on purpose. We run on AWS with Terraform, Timescale, Grafana and a fleet of Go collectors.

The team covers Chicago to Lisbon, which gives us follow-the-sun handoffs and four hours of shared time. Incidents get blameless written reviews within three days, and on-call is one week in seven.

Highlights

  • 01On-call paid at $500 per week
  • 02Equity: 0.04–0.08%
  • 03$2,500 home office setup
