Job Title: SRE Leader
Work Location: Atlanta GA (Alternative week onsite)
Duration: 12 months Contract
Job Description: -
Role Summary:
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 observability pillar.
Key Responsibilities:
Reliability Strategy & Design: Architect and design highly available scalable secure and cost-effective infrastructure and application patterns on AWS
Define and evangelize SRE best practices standards and blueprints for service design deployment monitoring and operational readiness across the engineering organization
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
With overall maturity lead the definition and implementation strategy for Service Level Indicators (SLIs) Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and Error Budgets for critical services
Platform Architecture & Automation: Design solutions to systematically reduce operational toil through automation and improved system design
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
Evaluate prototype and recommend new technologies tools and methodologies to enhance system reliability developer productivity and operational efficiency
Technical Leadership & Consultation: Act as a senior technical advisor and subject matter expert on reliability scalability and performance for development and platform teams
Provide architectural guidance during the design phase of new services and features to ensure reliability principles are embedded early (shift-left)
Mentor and coach other SREs and engineers fostering technical excellence and adherence to SRE principles
Lead architectural reviews and production readiness assessments for critical systems
