SRE ensures that Google's services—both our internally critical and our externally-visible systems—have reliability, uptime appropriate to users' needs and a fast rate of improvement. Additionally SRE’s will keep an ever-watchful eye on our systems capacity and performance.

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. Responsibilities: Collaborate with other teams and the Cloud Support organization to ensure Spanner is easy to manage and meets customers' needs with minimal operational load. Plan and execute projects that improve reliability or efficiency. Participate in an on-call rotation as required. Manage the responsibilities of the GCP Spanner allocations.
