Role Description We are seeking an experienced Site Reliability Engineer to ensure the availability, performance, and operational excellence of large-scale distributed systems in production. As an SRE you will live at the boundary between development and operations, applying strong software engineering principles to infrastructure and operations problems, and continually pushing the platform toward higher reliability with lower operational toil. The ideal candidate will combine deep systems knowledge with strong programming skills, a measurement-driven mindset, and the discipline to design, automate, and operate complex services so that reliability becomes a first-class engineering deliverable rather than a reactive concern. Key Responsibilities - Define, instrument, and continually refine service-level objectives (SLOs), service-level indicators (SLIs), and error budgets for critical services. - Lead incident response and resolution for production issues, acting as a calm and effective incident commander when needed. - Ensure high-quality post-incident reviews that drive lasting improvements. - Design and implement comprehensive monitoring, logging, and tracing strategies using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, ELK/EFK, Datadog, or similar. - Build and maintain robust on-call processes, runbooks, and escalation paths. - Automate operational toil aggressively by writing production-grade tooling in Python, Go, Bash, or similar languages. - Architect and operate large-scale Kubernetes clusters and container-based workloads. - Design CI/CD pipelines that promote safe, frequent, and observable releases. - Lead capacity planning and performance engineering activities. - Partner closely with application development teams to embed reliability practices early in design. - Strengthen the platform’s resiliency through chaos engineering and fault injection. - Drive continuous improvement of security posture in collaboration with security teams. - Contribute to the technical roadmap for reliability tooling and observability platforms. - Mentor engineers across the organization on SRE practices. Qualifications - Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline. - Five or more years of SRE, DevOps, or production engineering experience supporting large-scale distributed systems. - Strong programming skills in at least one of Python, Go, or Java. - Deep, hands-on experience operating Linux at scale. - Production experience operating Kubernetes and container-based workloads. - Strong working knowledge of observability tooling such as Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, ELK/EFK, or commercial equivalents. - Hands-on experience designing and operating CI/CD pipelines. - Solid understanding of distributed system design. - Demonstrated experience leading incident response and conducting effective post-incident reviews. - Excellent communication and documentation skills. Preferred Qualifications - Experience defining and operationalizing SLOs and error budgets in real production environments. - Exposure to chaos engineering practices and tools such as Chaos Monkey, Gremlin, or Litmus. - Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP). - Background in capacity planning, performance engineering, or large-scale load testing. - Familiarity with service mesh technologies such as Istio, Linkerd, or Consul.
