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 needs and a fast rate of improvement. Additionally, SRE keeps 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 that 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 also striving to create an environment that provides the support and mentorship needed to learn and grow.
Responsibilities
Design and safely introduce new products and features to data centers and WAN networks. Consult and contribute to enhancements in Google’s Software Defined Networking (SDN) stack.
Drive efforts to improve Mean Time To Detect (MTTD) and Mean Time To Mitigation (MTTM) for incidents.
Protect machine learning network reliability by improving machine learning network observability tooling, and providing emergency response for the machine learning network related incidents.
Drive standardization in network management tools, workflows, and processes to minimize human involvement and simplify emergency response.
Respond to network outages or user‑impacting events and non‑emergency escalations and Root‑Cause Analysis (RCA) requests.
