Why Harvey
At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate — not incrementally, but end‑to‑end. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise‑grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come.
We’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. Our team is sharp, motivated, and deeply committed to the mission.
Role Overview As a Software Engineer on the Site Reliability team at Harvey, you will ensure the reliability, scalability, and performance of our legal AI platform. You’ll join a high‑leverage team that sits at the intersection of infrastructure and product, owning the systems that keep our platform fast, secure, and always on. From scaling across 50+ regions to automating mission‑critical operations, your work will help Harvey remain resilient as we grow. If you’re passionate about building robust systems and reducing complexity through automation, we’d love to work with you. This role is based in San Francisco, CA, and we offer relocation assistance.
What You’ll Do
Design, implement, and manage monitoring, alerting, and infrastructure resources across 50+ global regions
Lead incident management processes, including post‑mortems, root cause analyses, and driving actionable improvements
Automate operational tasks and workflows, building tools and processes for capacity planning, graceful rollouts, and safe data access to maintain high reliability and reduce manual intervention
Collaborate across teams to drive reliability, security, and compliance throughout the software lifecycle
Optimize infrastructure costs through strategic capacity planning and build‑versus‑buy decisions while maintaining system performance, reliability, and functionality
What You Have
5+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering or similar roles supporting production environments
Expertise in infrastructure as code (IaC) tools (Pulumi, Terraform, CloudFormation, etc.)
Deep familiarity with observability tools (Datadog, Sentry, etc.) and incident response practices (PagerDuty, IncidentIO, etc.)
Proficiency with cloud infrastructure platforms (Azure, GCP, AWS, etc.)
Strong programming skills (Python, Bash, Go, or similar)
Proven track record of diagnosing complex system problems and implementing durable solutions
Solid understanding of CI/CD, Kubernetes, containerization, networking, databases, and cloud security principles
Excellent problem‑solving skills, meticulous attention to detail, and a commitment to operational excellence
Compensation Range $200,000 – $260,000 USD
