Role overview
Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) combines software and systems engineering to build and run large-scale, massively distributed, fault-tolerant systems. SRE ensures that the services—both our internally critical and our externally-visible systems—have reliability, uptime appropriate to customer's needs and a fast rate of improvement. Additionally, SREs will keep an ever-watchful eye on our systems capacity and performance. As a Site Reliability Engineer, you will have the opportunity to manage the complex challenges of scale which are unique to Digitization, while using your expertise in coding, algorithms, complexity analysis and large-scale system design. You will provide scalable, reliable, durable, and secure applications for our customers and internal users. You will help build highly reliable applications using a customer-first approach while innovating technically. You will understand our customer's needs and how we can meet them.
