Lead Site Reliablity Engineer

Role overview Lead reliability engineering for a large-scale cloud platform, shaping how infrastructure is designed, operated, secured, and improved across Azure and AWS. This hands-on technical leadership role spans cloud architecture, Kubernetes, networking, databases, observability, and incident response, while guiding engineers and partnering with product engineering, architecture, and security teams.

Responsibilities - Set technical direction for platform reliability, scalability, performance, and cost efficiency across Azure and AWS environments. - Design multi-region resilience, disaster recovery, and capacity plans; establish service indicators, objectives, and error budgets with engineering teams. - Improve infrastructure-as-code and delivery pipelines so platform changes are repeatable, reviewed, and safe. - Own cloud networking and edge capabilities, including DNS, load balancing, web application firewall, DDoS protection, routing, and private connectivity; lead complex latency, TLS, and connectivity investigations. - Set operational standards for Kubernetes clusters and containerized services, and lead upgrades, capacity planning, and production performance troubleshooting. - Mentor engineers, lead cross-team reliability initiatives, and advance automation and AI-assisted operations to reduce manual work and improve incident response.

Requirements - Senior-level experience leading site reliability or cloud operations for production platforms. - Strong expertise in Azure and AWS architecture, including resilience, disaster recovery, networking, and capacity planning. - Experience operating Kubernetes and containerized services at scale. - Proven ability to define and use reliability measures such as SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets. - Experience improving infrastructure as code, CI/CD, operational processes, and production incident response. - Ability to lead complex technical work, mentor engineers, and build effective partnerships across engineering and security.

Nice to have - Experience with Cloudflare, GitOps tools such as Argo CD or Flux, Helm, and observability tools such as Prometheus or Grafana. - Background in SQL Server or NoSQL platforms, AI-enabled operational automation, and cloud security or compliance practices such as secrets management and policy as code. - Experience leading an SRE team, on-call design, or a reliability program.
