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.

Much of our software development focuses on optimizing existing systems, building infrastructure and eliminating work through automation. On the SRE team, you’ll have the opportunity to manage the complex challenges of scale which are unique to Google Cloud, while using your expertise in coding, algorithms, complexity analysis and large-scale system design. SRE's culture of intellectual curiosity, problem solving and openness is key to its success. Our organization brings together people with a wide variety of backgrounds, experiences and perspectives. We encourage them to collaborate, think big and take risks in a blame-free environment. We promote self-direction to work on meaningful projects, while we also strive to create an environment that provides the support and mentorship needed to learn and grow.

The User Data SRE team is responsible for foundational systems, Kansas and Contribservice, which are used to build user insights, profiling, personalisation and contributions. The team’s work is essential to Google’s ability to provide its users with a personalized and relevant experience, whilst protecting the privacy of Google’s users.

Responsibilities

  • Work with development partners to improve the reliability, scalability, and efficiency of the services, and make new services meet production best practices.
  • Identify important service-level or cross-service problems, propose solutions, and write designs. Turn these into successful projects and where necessary guide the work of other engineers.
  • Help shape team culture and long term goals using your experience and by advocating for Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) best practices.
  • Work together to deliver the team's OKRs, including automation to reduce operational toil.
