Summary

Job Description

Site Reliability Engineer I enhances system resilience and performance, implements automation tools, and contributes to the architectural design and disaster recovery strategies, promoting best practices for continuous improvement and reliability.

Responsibilities

  • Monitor application and infrastructure health using enterprise monitoring and observability tools, including ELF, to ensure availability, performance, and reliability of enterprise platforms
  • Configure, tune, and maintain alerting mechanisms in ELF, aligned to service health indicators and SLOs, to enable timely incident detection and reduce noise and false positives
  • Develop and maintain dashboards providing visibility into system performance, availability, reliability trends, and key operational metrics
  • Analyze metrics, logs, and distributed traces across application and infrastructure layers to proactively identify issues and support effective root cause analysis (RCA)
  • Own and execute blameless RCAs for production incidents, identify corrective and preventive actions, and track them to closure
  • Implement minor code fixes, configuration updates, and reliability enhancements as part of incident remediation and preventive measures
  • Collaborate with application development and platform teams to review defects, propose fixes, and improve overall service reliability
  • Participate in Agile sprint planning ceremonies, backlog grooming, estimation, and delivery of SRE-owned work items
  • Drive reliability improvements through sprint-based commitments, including automation, operational fixes, and platform enhancements
  • Participate in Disaster Recovery (DR) planning, testing, and execution to ensure resilience of business-critical services
  • Perform regular system patching and maintenance activities in line with organizational security, compliance, and audit requirements
  • Support ITIL-based Incident, Problem, and Change Management processes, including planning, documentation, approvals, execution, and post-implementation validation
  • Monitor network performance and troubleshoot connectivity, latency, and access-related issues impacting platform traffic
  • Participate in certificate lifecycle management, including provisioning, renewal, validation, and troubleshooting of SSL/TLS certificates
  • Maintain and manage service accounts (Service IDs), including access provisioning, credential rotation, and compliance with security policies
  • Drive automation and operational toil reduction using scripting, CI/CD pipelines, and platform tooling to improve reliability and scalability
  • Maintain accurate documentation of system configurations, runbooks, SOPs, platform operational guidelines, and troubleshooting procedures, and generate reports on system performance, incidents, and resolutions
  • Participate and lead the Development change review and change validation processes
  • Collaborates with senior engineers to contribute to the architectural design of systems, ensuring that reliability, scalability, and performance considerations are integrated into design discussions with direct guidance from senior colleagues
  • Uses AI-assisted coding and documentation tools to support development of automation scripts, runbooks, and infrastructure as code with guidance from senior engineers
