Job Description
Insight Global is seeking a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to join a telecommunications client in St. Louis, MO, with strong Linux and database security experience to support and maintain enterprise database security and monitoring platforms. This role focuses on keeping critical database security applications stable, secure, and available, while partnering closely with DBAs, vendors, and cloud teams. The SRE will play a key role in incident response, patching, vendor management, and an upcoming migration to Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This is not a Linux administrator role; instead, the focus is on application reliability and database security tooling, including maintaining and supporting tools such as Imperva, monitoring database health and security alerts, troubleshooting and resolving incidents, patching and upgrading systems, collaborating with DBAs on database performance and queries, supporting MongoDB and other SQL/NoSQL platforms, and assisting with cloud installation and migration efforts. The role includes occasional after-hours support for incidents or patching, with a standard Monday–Friday schedule otherwise.
