About the job

Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) combines software and systems engineering to build and run large-scale, massively distributed, fault-tolerant systems. SRE ensures that Google Cloud's services—both our internally critical and our externally-visible systems—have reliability, uptime appropriate to customer's needs and a fast rate of improvement. Additionally SRE’s will keep an ever-watchful eye on our systems capacity and performance.

In this role, you will architect resilient, automated production environments that meet stringent Service Level Objectives. You will lead the team through some of Google's most pressing issues, including: scaling our architecture across the portfolio to accommodate exponentially growing demands for infrastructure capacity, supporting the growing business and compliance needs across different product areas, and adapting our operational models to support highly accelerated product development cycles.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible. Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.

Engage in and improve the whole lifecycle of services—from inception and design, through to deployment, operation, and refinement.

Support services before they go live through activities such as system design consulting, developing software platforms and frameworks, capacity planning, and launch reviews.

Maintain services once they are live by measuring and monitoring availability, latency, and overall system health.

Scale systems sustainably through mechanisms like automation, and evolve systems by pushing for changes that improve reliability and velocity.

Practice sustainable incident response and blameless postmortems.
