EngineeringDevops Engineer

As a Senior II Site Reliability Engineer Lead, you will drive the reliability, availability, and performance of large-scale cloud infrastructure and distributed computing platforms. You will provide technical leadership while working closely with engineering, operations, and support teams to build resilient, scalable, and highly automated systems. The role combines hands-on infrastructure engineering, systems troubleshooting, automation development, and operational leadership. You will help shape product architecture and operational standards from the early stages of the development lifecycle. By leveraging modern cloud technologies, containerization, and observability solutions, you will continuously improve system performance and minimize operational risks. This is an opportunity to contribute to mission-critical infrastructure powering global digital experiences while mentoring engineers and driving technical innovation.

Technical Leadership and Mentorship: Provide technical direction, guidance, and mentorship to Site Reliability Engineering teams and project stakeholders, encouraging collaboration, knowledge sharing, and engineering excellence.
Infrastructure Reliability and Availability: Oversee the operation, maintenance, and continuous improvement of critical cloud infrastructure and Compute services, ensuring high availability, scalability, performance, and resilience.
Architecture and Operational Readiness: Define technical and operational requirements throughout the product lifecycle, influencing system architecture, engineering standards, deployment strategies, and production readiness.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with software engineering, infrastructure, operations, and support teams to design and implement reliable, scalable, and user-friendly platforms.
Automation and Tooling: Develop and enhance infrastructure automation tools and operational workflows to reduce manual effort, eliminate repetitive tasks, improve efficiency, and optimize system performance.
Advanced Troubleshooting: Investigate and resolve complex infrastructure and application issues through proactive monitoring, systems programming, automation, and root cause analysis.
Identity and Access Management: Manage and continuously improve Compute identity and access management platforms, strengthening operational efficiency and accelerating incident detection and remediation.
CI/CD and Systems Engineering: Support reliable software delivery by improving automation pipelines, deployment processes, and infrastructure management practices.
Incident Management: Participate in on-call rotations, lead responses to critical incidents, coordinate resolution efforts, and implement improvements that prevent recurring disruptions.
Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities to strengthen monitoring, operational processes, system performance, and engineering practices across the platform.
