About the job

Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) combines software and systems engineering to build and run large-scale, massively distributed, fault-tolerant systems. SRE ensures that Google Cloud's 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 SRE’s will keep an ever-watchful eye on our systems capacity and performance.

Much of our software development focuses on optimizing existing systems, building infrastructure and eliminating work through automation. On the SRE team, you’ll have the opportunity to manage the complex challenges of scale which are unique to Google Cloud, while using your expertise in coding, algorithms, complexity analysis and large-scale system design. SRE's culture of intellectual curiosity, problem solving and openness is key to its success. Our organization brings together people with a wide variety of backgrounds, experiences and perspectives. We encourage them to collaborate, think big and take risks in a blame-free environment. We promote self-direction to work on meaningful projects, while we also strive to create an environment that provides the support and mentorship needed to learn and grow.

With your technical expertise, you will manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. You will design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions.

Responsibilities

  • Design, launch, and enhance the reliability of Home products and Assistant services utilizing Google's advanced production infrastructure.
  • Engage in software engineering to build and maintain services, while providing expert troubleshooting to rapidly resolve complex production issues.
  • Identify opportunities and implement innovative solutions to continuously improve the reliability, performance, and development velocity of Home products.
  • Provide technical leadership and mentorship to team members, guiding engineering decisions and upholding best practices in Site Reliability Engineering (SRE).
  • Lead the initiative to accelerate the migration of legacy services from platforms like GCP to Google's internal systems, driving the phase-out of outdated architecture.
