Mimic, Palo Alto, California, United States, 94306
Overview
Site Reliability Engineer - CI/CD and Release Engineering
at
Mimic .
About Mimic Mimic is a cybersecurity startup on a mission to stop ransomware before it starts. Ransomware attacks are growing more sophisticated every year, yet many organizations rely on outdated tools. Mimic empowers cybersecurity teams to detect and deflect ransomware in real time, stopping attacks before they cause damage. Our platform integrates with existing security systems to protect critical infrastructure and minimize downtime.
The Role As a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) at Mimic, you’ll work with engineers focused on scaling and securing systems that support our cutting-edge ransomware detection technology. You’ll accelerate and scale our CI/CD and release engineering practices across the organization, enhancing platform capabilities and reducing tooling friction.
As an SRE, you’ll work alongside some of the brightest minds in cybersecurity, including contributors to Go, Rust, and open-source security projects. From building resilient infrastructure to automating complex operations at scale, your work will directly support some of the most advanced detection technology in the industry. We’re seeking an experienced SRE to accelerate and scale our CI/CD and release engineering practices across the organization. This role will enhance our existing platform capabilities with deep expertise and strategic vision, accelerating our engineering velocity by eliminating tooling friction.
What You'll Do
Design, implement, and optimize CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Circle CI, Buildkite, and similar
Lead implementation of ephemeral environments to dramatically improve developer and PR reviewer experience
Expand the use of centralized artifact registries and container image repositories and establish consistent interaction patterns
Create unified workflows for artifact storage, versioning, and distribution across all teams
Develop standardized tooling, processes, and best practices for deployment and release management
Provide technical leadership and mentorship to engineering teams on CI/CD practices
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify and resolve deployment bottlenecks
Establish monitoring, metrics, and reliability standards for release processes
What You'll Bring
10+ years of experience in SRE, DevOps, or Release Engineering roles
Strong expertise with GitHub Actions, Circle CI, Buildkite, etc
Proven experience implementing ephemeral/preview environments at scale
Deep understanding of artifact management systems and container registries
Experience designing release processes and artifact workflows for multiple engineering teams
Strong knowledge of containerization, orchestration, and infrastructure as code
Experience with monitoring, logging, and observability tools
Excellent communication skills and ability to drive adoption of new processes
Why Mimic At Mimic, you’ll join a hand-picked team of engineers tackling one of today’s most urgent cybersecurity challenges: stopping ransomware before it starts. Our culture prizes transparency, rapid iteration, and curiosity. We work in modern languages like Go and Rust, with many engineers contributing to open-source projects and exploring techniques like eBPF and reverse engineering. We’re backed by Google Ventures and Menlo Ventures, with $77M in funding, and we value context-sharing over micromanagement, continuous learning over rigid structures, and collaboration over silos.
