Job Description

Cloud & Infrastructure Site Reliability Engineer (SRE)

Role Overview

We are looking for a Cloud & Infrastructure Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to build, operate, automate, and continuously improve highly available cloud-native infrastructure powering SaaS platform. You will work across public cloud, Kubernetes, compute, storage, networking, observability, and infrastructure automation - with a strong focus on reliability, scalability, security, and reducing manual operations. The ideal candidate combines strong infrastructure fundamentals with a software engineering and automation mindset - someone who proactively identifies operational issues and engineers permanent solutions rather than relying on repetitive manual processes.

Key Responsibilities

  • Cloud & Infrastructure Operations: Design, deploy, operate, and troubleshoot cloud-native infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and GCP - including compute, storage, networking, and containers. Handle provisioning, upgrades, patching, and capacity management; resolve connectivity, DNS, and load-balancing issues.
  • Site Reliability Engineering: Define and improve SLIs, SLOs, monitor for reliability risks, and drive incident response, root-cause analysis, and post-incident reviews. Automate away recurring operational work and improve system resilience through redundancy and automated recovery.
  • Kubernetes & Microservices: Deploy, manage, and troubleshoot containerized microservices on Kubernetes (EKS, AKS, GKE), including ingress, storage, secrets, and cluster health.
  • Infrastructure as Code & Automation: Automate provisioning and operational workflows with Terraform, Ansible, Python, and Bash; build reusable IaC modules integrated into CI, CD.
  • Monitoring & Observability: Implement monitoring, logging, tracing, and alerting (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Datadog, CloudWatch, etc.) with meaningful dashboards and low-noise alerting.
  • Networking & Security: Troubleshoot cloud networking (VPC, VNet, DNS, VPN, firewalls, load balancers); apply IAM, RBAC, secrets, and least-privilege security practices.
  • Incident & Production Support: Participate in on-call rotations, own incidents end-to-end, and maintain runbooks and automated remediation procedures.
  • Cost & Performance Optimization: Identify underutilized resources and support FinOps initiatives (rightsizing, scheduling, lifecycle management) while balancing cost with reliability.

Required Skills

  • Strong hands-on experience with at least one major public cloud - AWS, Azure, or GCP.
  • Solid understanding of Linux administration and infrastructure fundamentals.
  • Experience with Kubernetes and containerized microservices.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform and, or Ansible).
  • Strong automation, scripting skills in Python and Bash (PowerShell a plus).
  • Good understanding of networking, DNS, load balancing, firewalls, and cloud routing.
  • Experience with monitoring, logging, alerting, and observability platforms.
  • Understanding of CI, CD, Git, APIs, and modern DevOps practices.
  • Experience troubleshooting distributed production environments.
  • Understanding of security, IAM, RBAC, secrets, certificates, and infrastructure security.
  • Familiarity with database operations a plus.

Preferred Skills

Experience & Qualifications

  • Experience operating hybrid-cloud or multi-cloud environments.
  • Experience with VMware, Nutanix, OpenShift, or similar private-cloud technologies.
  • Experience building automated remediation or self-healing workflows.
  • Familiarity with AIOps, event correlation, anomaly detection, and AI-assisted operations.
  • Understanding of FinOps and cloud cost optimization.
  • Experience with ITSM platforms such as ServiceNow.
  • Cloud, Kubernetes, Linux, or Terraform certifications (AWS, Azure, GCP) are a strong plus. SRE Mindset
    • Automate before repeating, and engineer permanent fixes instead of resolving the same incident twice.
    • Treat infrastructure and operational configuration as code.
    • Design for failure and recovery, and measure reliability using data.
    • Build reusable automation and operational standards.
    • Reduce operational toil and unnecessary tickets.
    • Continuously improve reliability, performance, security, and cost efficiency.
      • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field, with minimum of 70%.
