Job Summary

Job Title: Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) Architect
Location: Atlanta Georgia

As an SRE Architect you will be a pivotal technical leader responsible for designing
building and evolving the foundational systems and practices that ensure the
reliability scalability performance and efficiency of our critical services. Moving
beyond day-to-day operations you will focus on the strategic architectural direction
of SRE function defining standards blueprints and frameworks that enable
development teams and fellow SRE operations team to build and operate highly
resilient systems. Leverage deep expertise in software engineering distributed
systems cloud infrastructure and SRE principles to influence technology choices
establish best practices and foster a proactive culture of reliability across the
organization and much beyond the observability pillar.

Key Responsibilities:
1. Reliability Strategy & Design:
o Architect and design highly available scalable secure and cost-
effective infrastructure and application patterns on AWS
o Define and evangelize SRE best practices standards and blueprints
for service design deployment monitoring and operational readiness
across the engineering organization
o Review current observability implementation to identify gaps and define
steps to reach next level maturity of observability setup to provide
deep insights into system health and behaviour
o With overall maturity lead the definition and implementation strategy for
Service Level Indicators (SLIs) Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and
Error Budgets for critical services

2. Platform Architecture & Automation:
o Design solutions to systematically reduce operational toil through
automation and improved system design
o Evaluate current SRE tools and automation frameworks (e.g. CI/CD
pipelines Infrastructure as Code modules automated incident
remediation chaos engineering platforms) and suggest enhancement
that will help overall enhancement of capability
o Evaluate prototype and recommend new technologies tools and
methodologies to enhance system reliability developer productivity
and operational efficiency

3. Technical Leadership & Consultation:
o Act as a senior technical advisor and subject matter expert on
reliability scalability and performance for development and platform
teams
o Provide architectural guidance during the design phase of new services
and features to ensure reliability principles are embedded early (shift-
left)
o Mentor and coach other SREs and engineers fostering technical
excellence and adherence to SRE principles

o Lead architectural reviews and production readiness assessments for
critical systems

4. Resilience:
o Lead blameless postmortems for significant incidents ensuring root
causes are identified and systemic architectural improvements are
prioritized and implemented
o Architect and advocate for resilience patterns (e.g. circuit breaking
rate limiting graceful degradation chaos engineering) within
applications and infrastructure

Required Qualifications:

Proven experience in an architectural role designing solutions for reliability
scalability and performance
Deep understanding and practical application of SRE principles (SLIs/SLOs
error budgets toil reduction automation incident management postmortems)
Expertise in cloud computing platforms (e.g. AWS) including infrastructure
networking and security services
Strong experience with containerization and orchestration technologies
(Kubernetes Docker serverless computing)
Solid experience designing and implementing observability solutions (e.g.
Dynatrace Prometheus Grafana ELK/EFK Stack Jaeger OpenTelemetry)
Strong programming/scripting skills (e.g. Python Go Bash) for automation
and tool development
Excellent analytical problem-solving and strategic thinking skills.
Strong communication collaboration and leadership skills with the ability to
influence technical direction across teams

Preferred Qualifications:
Experience designing and implementing chaos engineering practices and
platforms
