Your role at DynatraceLead the APAC Site Reliability Engineering team located in Sydney, responsible for the reliability, availability, and performance of the Dynatrace SaaS platform. You will be the senior technical, operational, and people leader in APAC, working directly alongside your Site Reliability Engineers and Incident Commanders. You will be expected to work on incidents, lead customer escalations, and contribute technically, while also owning team health, people's growth, operational maturity, and regional SRE outcomes. You will represent APAC in global SRE initiatives and bring regional context into decisions that shape how we run SRE globally. You will report directly to the Senior Director, SRE based in EMEA. The APAC SRE team operates as part of a broader SRE Observability team spanning EMEA and APAC. Your leadership focus is on the APAC team, and planned engineering work is shared across the full team. Your success depends as much on strong async collaboration and global alignment as it does on regional execution. What You'll Do - Lead, mentor, and grow a team of <10 SREs and Incident Commanders. Set the bar for technical quality and operational discipline. - Be hands-on during high-severity incidents: help orchestrate the response, drive resolution, and derive learnings in the post-incident process. - Act as the primary interface for APAC customer escalations that require SRE involvement, working closely with Customer Success and Support. - Contribute actively to global SRE strategy, tooling, and platform reliability practices — not just regional operations. - Drive continuous improvement: reduce toil, improve observability, and push the team toward engineering-led reliability solutions. - Champion AI native practices across incident response, root cause analysis, toil reduction, and everyday engineering workflows — using them to take load off the team and setting the standard for how we work with AI. - Lead, mentor, and grow a team of <10 SREs and Incident Commanders.

What will help you succeed - 5+ years of experience managing or leading high-performing SRE teams, preferably in distributed, global teams - Comfortable owning high-severity incidents end-to-end: declaring, coordinating, communicating, and closing. - Proven ability to manage customer escalations at a technical level: you can translate operational reality into clear, credible communication with customers and account teams. - Hands-on experience with AI-native engineering workflows. Using AI tooling to accelerate incident analysis, automate toil, or improve observability. You are not waiting for AI to mature; you are already working this way and want to lead others through the same shift. - Strong cloud-native fundamentals and hands-on experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure in a production SaaS context. - Experience with observability practices: SLIs, SLOs, alerting philosophy, and incident review culture. - A strong bias for action and a habit of making knowledge shared, not siloed. You document, automate, and build for scale even when the team is small.
