Senior Lead Site Reliability Engineer
Sign up free to see how well your resume matches this role.
What you'll do
- Own production reliability outcomes by managing day-to-day operational health (availability, latency, throughput, error rates), proactively surfacing risks, and driving remediation.
- Define and evolve service level indicators/service level objectives (SLIs/SLOs) and error budgets; build actionable, customer-impact-aligned alerting and reduce noise through tuning and standardization.
- Improve end-to-end observability and troubleshooting (metrics, logs, traces), dashboards, and runbooks across Kubernetes and Amazon Web Services (AWS); perform deep technical triage of distributed-system issues.
- Lead incident response and problem management by participating in on-call, driving triage/mitigation/recovery, completing root cause analyses (RCAs), and ensuring corrective and preventive actions close.
- Operate Kubernetes workloads including autoscaling, rollout/rollback procedures, resource tuning, and resilience patterns for containerized services.
- Operate AWS container and serverless components (for example, Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service/Elastic Container Service/AWS Lambda) with a focus on scaling, retries, and safe failure modes.
- Improve release engineering and delivery reliability by increasing the safety and repeatability of deployments using Spinnaker and Harness.
- Build infrastructure as code and environment consistency by developing and maintaining Terraform modules and automation for reliable, repeatable environments.
- Strengthen database and data-service reliability by partnering with engineering and platform teams to improve reliability patterns across multiple database technologies and data services (for example, DynamoDB, Amazon Simple Storage Service).
- Embed security and controls into operations by applying secure operational practices and ensuring processes meet required control standards.
- Lead small-to-medium initiatives end-to-end from proposal through production adoption, using enterprise-authorized AI capabilities to accelerate triage and toil reduction while validating outputs and handling operational data per sensitivity and security requirements.
What they're looking for
- Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 5+ years applied experience
- Experience in SRE/DevOps/production engineering or equivalent
- Hands-on experience operating Kubernetes workloads (deployments, scaling, debugging)
- Practical experience with AWS (EKS, ECS, Lambda, Dynamo DB, S3) in production
- Experience with CI/CD and release tooling such as Spinnaker and/or Harness
- Proficiency with Terraform (IaC), and scripting/automation (Python/Bash/Go)
- Strong incident response skills, RCA writing, and ability to drive remediation work
- Solid fundamentals in Linux, networking, and troubleshooting distributed systems
- Ability to independently execute well-scoped reliability work and escalate when needed
- Working knowledge of using enterprise-authorized AI capabilities within the work environment to support SRE workflows with strong validation habits and awareness of data sensitivity
- Ability to validate AI-assisted operational recommendations before applying changes, escalating when uncertain and following data sensitivity requirements
Nice to have
- Experience implementing SLO programs and alerting aligned to customer journeys
- Experience with performance testing, capacity planning, and resilience testing (fault injection/chaos, DR exercises)
- Experience improving operational maturity: standardized runbooks, automated health checks, auto-remediation, and deployment guardrails
- Experience with fraud screening/decisioning or payment flows
- Familiarity with database reliability patterns (capacity, backups, failover readiness)
- Experience with secure operational practices (least privilege, secrets handling)
- Experience partnering with engineering and platform teams to drive reliability improvements
