Description

Kuali is looking for a Site Reliability Engineer to join our Student product team. You will develop automated solutions for operational tasks such as monitoring, performance, and capacity planning. You will work closely with our development/product teams to architect continuous delivery and infrastructure automation.

Who are we?

Kuali provides SaaS solutions to higher education institutions throughout North America. We help our customers — colleges & universities — focus on providing a fantastic education to students by decreasing their administrative costs. We work in a competitive space, ripe for innovation, with users ready to be delighted.

Our Culture

As a company, we are guided by our cultural values:

Iterate to evolve
Cultivate openness
Act with accountability
Assume the best
Practice humility
Deliver amazing experiences
Make mistakes

As Kuali engineers, we learn from and teach each other, we practice transparency and empathy, and we delight in delivering value to our customers.

We work remotely, and have for years. Distributed work is in our bones, with a history of institutions working across state lines on open-source software for more than ten years. Our employees each work in the environment where they’re happiest, from Pennsylvania to Hawaii. We work consciously to create a collaborative and healthy remote work culture, and we travel to meet in person a few times each year.

Everyone should love their work.

Kuali has been voted a top place to work for 3 years in a row by the Salt Lake Tribune. We also made Forbes' list of America's Best Startup Employers for 2020. Not too shabby.
