Job Details

About Sleeper

Sleeper is a rapidly growing platform for sports fans with messaging and gameplay at its core. We’re reimagining how fans interact with sports—from season-long fantasy leagues to daily gaming formats—with a seamless, social-first experience that puts the user first.

Behind the scenes, Sleeper is powered by a modern, scalable tech stack. While much of our backend is Elixir-driven, this role sits at the intersection of Python-based data services, our Elixir backend, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and distributed analytics infrastructure. You’ll help us ensure our trading systems are robust, our pricing is real-time, and our risk engines are resilient.

The Role

We are seeking a DevOps/QA Engineer with a passion for automation, quality, and observability to join our Risk & Trading team. You’ll work on critical infrastructure and testing pipelines that power Sleeper’s real-money gaming experience—helping to scale pricing engines, maintain system reliability, and build the tooling to detect anomalies before users ever feel them.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines for trading and pricing services (Python & Elixir).

  • Develop infrastructure as code (Terraform, GCP-native tools) for deploying and scaling trading infrastructure.

  • Build automated QA pipelines to test settlement, pricing accuracy, and edge-case simulations across sporting events.

  • Work closely with engineers and data scientists to validate data integrity and model behavior in production.

  • Monitor system performance and implement observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, etc.) to identify and mitigate production risks.

  • Create fault-injection tests and run load-testing simulations that replicate real-world market stress.

  • Participate in post-mortem reviews and help create actionable feedback loops for continuous improvement.

Who You Are

  • 3+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or QA roles—preferably in high-availability or finance/gaming-related environments.

  • Strong Python skills with experience in test frameworks (e.g., Pytest, Hypothesis).

  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, CircleCI, or similar) and infrastructure automation tools (Terraform, Ansible).

  • Familiarity with cloud environments (GCP preferred) and container orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).

  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills; a passion for finding edge cases and preventing failure modes.

  • Understanding of real-time systems, pricing engines, or risk models is a big plus.

  • Bonus: Experience with Elixir or functional programming environments.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and stock options

  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance

  • 401(k)

  • Flexible working hours and remote-first culture

  • Clear paths for career growth and leadership
