Customer Reliability Engineer / Developer - Ruby on Rails (Remote)
TableCheck, Japan's leading restaurant reservation management platform, is seeking a Customer Reliability Engineer.
The Customer Reliability Engineering team at TableCheck works with engineers within both our organisation and our customer's IT and Engineering teams to be able to both deliver results and advocate for customer needs. As a member of our CRE team you will primarily support our Enterprise customers and third-party integration developers alongside our SREs.
We are looking for CREs with a deep understanding of Ruby on Rails, with direct experience working with APIs in production and experience with monitoring-in-code tooling such as OpenTelemetry. We are looking for someone with a strong ability to learn, document and articulate customer organisation's needs to engineers within TableCheck.
TableCheck's CREs are strong individual contributors who can deliver quick and effective results, and know when and how to document and write requirements for larger issues. CREs must know when they can individually fix issues in a reasonable amount of time, and when to consult our larger engineering team.
Our CREs are developers who successfully deliver and maintain integrations and features for our Enterprise customers (API / Payments). CRE takes on the responsibility of keeping our customer SLOs, such as developing hot-fixes and working with our SRE team to develop monitoring tools.
