As a Lead Site Reliability Engineer in Corporate Technology: Data Strategy & Architecture
You will lead resiliency design reviews and champion site reliability practices across medium to large-sized products. You will break down complex problems into actionable work, guide delivery through strong engineering standards, and help teams improve reliability using data-driven insights. You will serve as a technical leader during major incidents and influence solutions across multiple technical domains. You will mentor engineers and advise on technical and business issues to improve outcomes for customers and stakeholders. This is a technical leadership (IC) position, rather than a team leadership position.
Job Responsibilities
- Champion site reliability culture and practices, exerting technical influence across the team
- Lead initiatives to improve reliability and stability using data-driven analytics to improve service levels
- Partner with engineers and stakeholders to define service level indicators, service level objectives, and error budgets
- Identify and resolve technical bottlenecks across one or more technical domains
- Act as a primary point of contact during major incidents, driving rapid diagnosis and resolution to reduce impact
- Document and share knowledge through internal forums and communities of practice
- Define and drive CI/CD strategy and pipeline standards, including artifact management, environment promotion, and release gating
- Design and implement infrastructure-as-code practices to enable self-service provisioning and reduce toil
- Lead resiliency design reviews for new and existing data products, identifying single points of failure, capacity risks, and operational gaps before production
- Embed shift-left security practices into delivery pipelines, including automated scanning, secrets management, and policy-as-code
- Lead capacity planning and cost optimization across cloud and on-premise compute for data workloads
