  • Conduct disaster recovery planning and exercises to validate system resilience and business continuity readiness.
  • Contribute to on-call rotations and provide support for off-hours incidents, deployments, and escalations.
  • Explore and integrate AI-driven tools to improve SRE workflows, monitoring, alerting, and incident response efficiency.
  • Mentor peers and contribute to building a strong engineering culture through technical guidance and feedback.
  • Requirements:

    • 5+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering or related infrastructure/DevOps roles.
    • Strong experience managing production cloud environments, preferably AWS with Kubernetes (EKS) at scale.

    • Proficiency in at least one programming or scripting language (Python, Java, .NET, JavaScript, or similar).
    • Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines in modern engineering environments.
    • Strong understanding of monitoring, logging, alerting, and observability best practices.
    • Experience with on-call rotations and incident management in production environments.
    • Solid understanding of agile development methodologies and cross-functional collaboration.
    • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills with a focus on reliability and system performance.
    • Nice to have: experience with SLO/SLI/SLA frameworks, DR exercises, HPC environments, or tools such as Datadog, New Relic, Grafana, PagerDuty, or GitLab/GitHub pipelines.
    • Nice to have: exposure to AI-assisted engineering or automation tools in production SRE workflows.
    • Benefits:
