• Maintain and improve service-level objectives (SLOs) and service-level agreements (SLAs) across systems and services.

• Monitor and respond to incidents, troubleshooting issues across the entire stack (network, systems, software, applications).
• Conduct root cause analysis (RCA) of system failures and recommend or implement long-term solutions to prevent recurrence.
• Participate in on-call rotations, ensuring timely resolution of incidents and minimizing downtime.
• Collaborate with development and operations teams to improve system observability and alerting through monitoring tools.

• Contribute to the design and implementation of scalable, highly available, and fault-tolerant architectures for distributed systems.
• Collaborate with software engineers and architects to optimize system architecture for high reliability and performance.
• Manage cloud infrastructure and services (Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud) to ensure efficient resource utilization and scalability.

• Design and manage networking components, including load balancers, firewalls, VPNs, and DNS, ensuring secure, scalable, and resilient network infrastructure.
• Troubleshoot network performance issues, including latency, packet loss, and bandwidth bottlenecks.
• Work with security teams to implement best practices for security hardening, encryption, and compliance in production environments.
• Ensure secure communication between services, utilizing technologies such as TLS, SSH, VPN, and firewall configurations.

• Implement comprehensive monitoring, logging, and alerting systems using tools such as Dynatrace, Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or Splunk.
• Create and maintain dashboards that provide real-time insights into system performance, availability, and key reliability metrics.
• Set up monitoring for key infrastructure components (e.g., servers, databases, microservices) and define actionable alerts.
• Conduct capacity and performance testing to ensure the systems can handle increasing traffic and workloads.
• Perform periodic (e.g. daily, monthly, annually) SRE manual and automated operations to ensure proper performance of corporate enterprise applications and systems.

• Work with business applications across various environments, including on-premises, hybrid, and cloud systems.
• Work with the infrastructure and cloud teams to ensure that application environments are stable, secure, and meet business performance expectations.
• Support the transition of applications from on-premises environments to cloud or hybrid architectures, working closely with senior IT leadership on cloud migration strategies.
• Ensure proper governance and performance monitoring for applications in all environments, proactively identifying areas for optimization.

• Develop and implement procedures for regular audits, risk assessments, and disaster recovery plans for critical applications.
• Ensure that QA processes adhere to relevant industry standards and regulatory requirements (e.g., ISO, GDPR, HIPAA).
• Develop and maintain test documentation, including test plans, test cases, test scripts, and test data management.

• EDUCATION:
  
  Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field, required.
• CERTIFICATIONS:
  
  Certification in cloud platforms (e.g., Microsoft Azure Administrator), preferred.

• A minimum of 7 years of experience as a Service Reliability Engineer, Dev Ops Engineer, or Systems Engineer, with hands-on exposure to networking, systems, and software development, required.
• Strong experience with cloud platforms (e.g., Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud), including experience managing cloud-based services and infrastructure, required.
• Experience with scripting or programming languages (e.g., Powershell, Python, Go, Bash, Java) for automation and tooling required.
• Experience with monitoring and observability tools (e.g., Dynatrace, Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, Splunk) required.
• Hands‑on experience with CI/CD pipelines and version control (e.g.,…
