🌿🦾 Let's translate it into activities:
The activities of an SRE (Site Reliability Engineer) professional are focused on ensuring the availability, reliability, stability, and scalability of software systems and services. The SRE role combines knowledge of software development and infrastructure and cloud operations to improve operational efficiency and reduce the impact of failures on systems. Here are some key activities performed by an SRE professional:
- Ensure that systems and services in your local area are reliable, available, and scalable, meeting or exceeding our SLOs and SLAs;
- Work with the global SRE team to design, implement, and operate software reliably, scalably, and economically, contributing to the standardization of practices, tools, and solutions;
- Participate in global discussions on standardizing practices, tools, and solutions, providing feedback on how to improve them;
- Monitor systems and services to identify and resolve issues before they affect users;
- Work on creating and maintaining tools and automations to facilitate operations and improve system reliability. This may involve coding scripts, developing internal tools, and contributing to open-source projects;
- Establish and maintain monitoring systems to collect metrics, logs, and traces from production systems, using monitoring tools to identify performance issues, anomalies, and trends that may affect service reliability;
- Play a crucial role in incident management with rapid responses to outages, performance issues, or other operational failures, investigating root causes and implementing corrective measures to prevent recurrences. Work on incident response plans and continuous improvement of recovery processes;
- Analyze system performance and make capacity predictions to ensure resources are available to support expected demand. Collaborate with development teams to design and implement scalability strategies, such as automatic resource adjustment and adoption of resilient architectures;
- Define and apply Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) practices to improve system reliability and availability. This may include implementing stress tests, fault reduction techniques, controlled updates, canary releases, and change management practices;
- Act as a bridge between development and operations teams. Collaborate with software engineers to improve system reliability from the design phase and provide technical support to resolve operational issues;
- Develop and implement incident response plans to minimize the impact of disruptions.
Qualifications
📎📢 What do you need to excel in this role?
- Experience in incident management, including identification, diagnosis, and resolution of incidents
- Understanding of Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and Service Level Objectives (SLOs);
- Familiarity with monitoring and alerting tools, such as DataDog, Prometheus, Grafana, Nagios, and Splunk;
- Knowledge of best practices and global standards for SRE;
- Experience in designing and implementing highly available, scalable, and fault-tolerant systems;
- Experience with automation tools like Ansible, Chef, Puppet, Terraform, or similar;
- Experience with containerization and container orchestration platforms like Docker and Kubernetes;
- Experience with continuous integration and continuous delivery tools, such as Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, GitHub Actions, or CircleCI, for automating the software development and deployment pipeline;
- Proficiency in popular programming languages like Python, Go, Java, Typescript for developing tools, scripts, and automations needed for the SRE role;
- Experience with tools like Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana (ELK Stack), or Jaeger for collecting, analyzing, and visualizing logs and traces for troubleshooting and performance analysis;
- Experience working in a global team and participating in discssuions on standardizing practices, tools, and solutions.
