Site Reliability Engineer

Responsibilities

• Participate in on-call rotations as the primary technical lead.
• Act as the Incident Commander during major severity incidents: initiating war rooms, coordinating cross-functional teams, and providing clear status updates.
• Instrument code to expose high-cardinality metrics and distributed traces. Collaboratively define, measure, and defend Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and Error Budgets with product owners.
• Write high-quality, production-ready code (in Java, Go, or Python) to build internal tooling, automation platforms, and self-healing mechanisms that eliminate manual operator intervention.
• Partner with Product Engineering teams during the design phase to ensure new services are built with reliability, scalability, and observability patterns (circuit breakers, rate limiting, backpressure, fallback strategies) from day one.
• Analyze system performance and traffic patterns to model future capacity needs.
• Conduct load testing and chaos engineering experiments to verify system resilience under failure conditions.
