The SRE will partner directly with Software Engineering, CTI Engineering, and Production Services teams to improve reliability and observability for the services they support by planning and implementing any instrumentation, tooling, ticketing, alerting and on-call routines defined in observability designs. They typically support services with less strenuous reliability requirements as they learn SRE standards and practices. SREs will engage in production triage efforts and Problem Management routines, using the experiences to continue to grow their SRE knowledge and to start identifying potential gaps in the observability design or implementation. The SRE will also focus heavily on software development activities, with a focus toward delivering automated solutions to eliminate operational 'toil' and suggesting code enhancements to software engineering teams to help improve the reliability or observability of the service.
Job Summary:
Candidate will partner with key leaders in Core Technology Infrastructure (CTI) Engineering, and Technology Services roles to define objective reliability goals for the KMS service, including observability designs specifying plans to gain operational visibility into meeting those goals through instrumentation and dashboards. The individual in this role will consistently look for opportunities to improve the reliability and efficiency of operating our services, spending a considerable portion of their time utilizing their engineering skills to find automation solutions to manual support activities, along with influencing a culture that drives innovation and continuous improvement. This individual will be engaged in major production triage efforts and work with problem management in the identification of root cause of highly impactful or complex issues as required. This individual will use the knowledge gained in those efforts to partner closely with software developers, production services, architects, and Infrastructure teams to drive delivery of sustainable and reusable design patterns supporting efficient production operation and to ensure non-functional production support requirements are adopted early in the application development lifecycle.
