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 diversity, 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.

With your technical expertise, you will manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. You will design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions.

Responsibilities

Work on the availability, scalability, efficiency, and latency of some of Google Cloud’s most critical services.
Work with partner Development and SRE teams to design and deliver different programs and projects in a scalable, reliable, and secure manner (Cloud Capacity fungibility, Trusted Private Cloud, Convergence, Butter, etc.).
Design and develop innovative solutions that enable key Google initiatives that scale with the requirements of the business.
Provide oncall and on-duty excellence; driving problems towards sustainable, long-term solutions.
Contribute to continuous service improvement.
