Job Description

Yousign is seeking an experienced Head of SRE to lead our Site Reliability Engineering team through a pivotal transformation phase. You will own the technical leadership and people management of a mature 6-person SRE team, driving our infrastructure migration to completion while shaping the future of our Platform organization. This role is critical as we complete our multi-semester infrastructure migration (90% by H1 2026, 100% by EOY 2026) and transition into a phase focused on resilience, scalability, and Platform Engineering excellence.

Job Responsibility

  • Team Management and Leadership (40%): Lead, inspire, and grow a team of 6 SREs with diverse profiles (Infrastructure and Application backgrounds)
  • Create a unified SRE vision while respecting each profile's specificities and career development needs
  • Provide coaching and mentorship, including for senior/staff engineers on technical leadership
  • Manage workload, prioritize and make structured recommendations that will be discussed with Engineering management
  • Manage external resources: freelancers and specific expertise as needed
  • Embody and transmit Yousign's vision, values, and Operating Principles
  • Strategic Vision and Planning (25%): Complete infrastructure migration successfully: Drive 90% decommissioning by H1 2026, 100% by EOY 2026
  • Define post-migration strategy: resilience (eliminate SPOFs), scalability (support growth), rationalization (observability overhaul)
  • Drive Platform Engineering vision: IDP/DevHub implementation to reduce cognitive load for product teams
  • Perform long-term capacity planning (1-2 years): project technical, budget, and headcount needs aligned with business growth
  • Participate in infrastructure strategy, architecture decisions, and technology trade-offs
  • Drive sovereign cloud strategy (OVH) and non-hyperscaler expertise
  • Present strategic recommendations to top management with clear business value articulation
  • Production Management and Crisis Leadership (20%): Ensure SLA & SLO for critical B2B trust signature service (thousands of customers, millions of users)
  • Lead incident management with mature processes (on-call, runbooks, war rooms)
  • Act as credible spokesperson during crises: manage communication with internal teams, Engineering Council, and external customers
  • Establish and execute crisis communication plans maintaining trust and transparency
  • Drive blameless post-mortems and continuous improvement culture
  • Manage on-call organization and team mental load
  • Proactively identify and mitigate risks
  • strengthen resilience mechanisms
  • Implement disaster recovery and business continuity plans
  • Platform Engineering and DevOps Culture (15%): Drive Platform-as-a-Product mindset: product teams as customers, focus on reducing their cognitive load
  • Minimize impact on product teams during infrastructure transformations
  • Own Build topics: Automation, CI/CD, technical framing, IDP/DevHub implementation, Developer Experience (self-service, golden paths)
  • Own Run topics: Supervision, monitoring, observability rationalization post-migration
  • Work closely with Engineering Managers to address cross-team needs
  • Diffuse DevSecOps/SRE culture within Engineering teams
  • Lead cross-functional initiatives to improve platform efficiency and reliability

Requirements

  • Non-hyperscaler infrastructure: Proven experience with sovereign cloud (OVH, Scaleway) or traditional hosting—not just AWS/GCP/Azure with managed services
  • Critical production management: Real experience managing major incidents with external customer and stakeholder communication during crises
  • Confirmed management experience: Minimum 3-5 years managing technical teams (5+ people)
  • SRE transformation experience: Successfully led SRE transformation in a scale-up environment
  • Diverse profile management: Experience managing teams with different technical backgrounds (Infrastructure + Application, or similar hybrid profiles)
  • Long-term vision: Ability to project over 6-12 months on technical evolution, budget, and people planning
  • Crisis communication: Credible spokesperson in high-pressure situations with internal and external stakeholders
  • Energy and dynamism: Engaging communication style that inspires and motivates teams
  • Pragmatism over dogma: "Keep it simple" mindset-technology as a means, not an end
  • Trade-off thinking: Makes pragmatic decisions based on business context, not only theoretical best practices
  • Systemic improvement culture: Focuses on long-term solutions rather than "hero mode"

What we offer

  • Swile card - Lunch Vouchers covered by 50% by Yousign = 10.50€
  • Alan - Health insurance: Basic coverage at €62.50/month, 50% paid by Yousign
  • Life and disability insurance: 100% covered by Yousign
