Site Reliability Engineer

Posted on 8 August 2026

About the role

💼 What you will do

• Join a dedicated SRE practice within Service Operations to make every engineering team more reliable by establishing the practices, frameworks, and feedback loops that let them own reliability themselves. • Work across the org setting standards, pair-programming fixes, helping teams define error budgets, and telling them when those budgets are exhausted. • Bring a strong vision for how SRE should work in an async, fast-paced environment where influence matters more than authority.

📋 Job Requirements

• Bring 7+ years of experience in SRE, production engineering, or reliability-focused roles, including experience shaping SRE practices and driving adoption across engineering teams. • Have a software engineering mindset, writing code and building tools rather than just configuring them. • Have hands-on experience defining and operationalising SLOs/SLIs at scale, including error budget policies that actually influenced engineering decisions. • Have deep experience with incident response, postmortem facilitation, and turning incident learnings into systemic improvements. • Have worked with large-scale multi-tenant systems. • Be proficient with cloud infrastructure, with AWS preferred, and infrastructure-as-code with Pulumi preferred or Terraform/CDK also acceptable. • Communicate clearly and persuasively, as the role requires influencing without authority across a distributed org. • Have experience in async or globally distributed teams. • Be energised by making other teams more effective rather than being the one who fixes everything.

🌟 Nice-to-have

• Have experience with Kubernetes-based platform operations. • Bring familiarity with OpenTelemetry, VictoriaMetrics, Grafana, or similar observability tooling. • Have experience building developer-facing reliability tooling such as SLO dashboards, ORR frameworks, toil tracking, and DORA metrics. • Have worked with managed database platforms or Postgres specifically.

🎯 Responsibilities

• Partner with service teams to define meaningful SLIs and SLOs grounded in customer experience and build the error budget policies that turn them into engineering decisions. • Own and evolve the Operational Readiness Review process, conducting reviews for new services and major changes across observability, alerting, runbooks, capacity, and graceful degradation. • Strengthen the incident-to-improvement pipeline by connecting postmortem findings to operational readiness gaps, identifying repeat failure patterns, and driving systemic fixes. • Act as the reliability expert teams pull in for architecture reviews, failure mode analysis, dependency mapping, and resilience design. • Identify and quantify operational toil across the org and build or advocate for automation that eliminates it. • Help teams design sustainable on-call practices covering alert quality, escalation paths, runbook coverage, and noise reduction. • Track and report on org-wide operational maturity, surfacing systemic gaps and driving remediation.
