Site Reliability Engineer US

Overview

Responsibilities

• Champion Reliability by Design: Collaborate with architects and engineers to build resilient, fault-tolerant systems across our evolving cloud-native stack. 
• Observability Overhaul: Lead the charge on full-stack observability, leveraging modern APM tooling, meaningful SLOs/SLIs, and actionable alerts. 
• Scaling Systems: Develop and implement auto-scaling strategies, load testing plans, and capacity forecasting for multi-tenant environments. 
• Progressive Delivery: Help implement and automate deployment strategies such as canary releases, feature flags, and blue/green rollouts. 
• Incident Response: Create and refine on-call processes, incident response playbooks, and blameless post-mortem routines. 
• Monitoring & Tooling: Own and evolve our monitoring infrastructure, integrating metrics, logs, and traces into a cohesive ecosystem. 
• Developer Empowerment: Build reusable templates, dashboards, and platform tooling to empower dev teams to “shift left” on reliability. 
• Cross-functional Collaboration: Work hand-in-hand with Infrastructure, Architecture, Support, and Engineering teams to drive shared accountability for uptime and performance.

• Strong understanding of software deployment strategies, CI/CD pipelines, and release engineering. 
• Ability to code in at least one modern scripting or systems language (e.g., Python,PowerShell, Go, Bash). 
• Experience operating multi-tenant environments with an emphasis on security, performance, and cost optimization. 
• Excellent communicator who thrives in cross-functional settings and can influence engineering culture around reliability. 

Desirable skills

• Experience in regulated industries (e.g., financial services, healthcare). 
• Background with service mesh architectures, distributed tracing, and gRPC/GraphQL.
