Job Description

An employer is looking for an SRE to join their enterprise level SRE team. They are building a specialized team of Senior Site Reliability Engineers to act as embedded technical experts across their IT organization.

• Embed with dev teams to guide them through performance, reliability, and architectural challenges.

• Collaborate with DBAs, network engineers, and platform teams to unblock and resolve issues.

• Proactively identify issues and drive them to resolution without waiting for direction.
