Site Reliability Engineer II

Site Reliability Engineer II (aka SRE II) are specialists in treating operations as a software problem. They focus on reliability of systems and services - addressing availability, performance, scalability, latency, observability, efficiency. They work on maintaining key components and developing systems that will minimize human labor (through automation) and increase system reliability with the end goal of breaking the relationship between system size, operational toil and complexity.

SRE II are responsible for the implementation of technical solutions based on business requirements, they can estimate the effort and impact of the items they work on, and show a high quality of craft in what they deliver. SRE II work primarily within the scope of their team while occasionally collaborating across partner teams. They are expected to work together with colleagues (potentially in other job roles) to design and implement technical tasks. They are also expected to actively participate in incident response for issues affecting their team. Because the required technical skills and commercial knowledge can vary from one area to another, SRE II can wear several hats; part of a business service owner team, owner of a piece of infrastructure, and/or consultant to product development teams regarding Site Reliability Engineering related scope.
