Requirements
As an SRE you will:
- Be on a PagerDuty rotation to respond to availability incidents and provide support for service engineers with customer incidents.
- Use your on-call shift to prevent incidents from happening.
- Run our infrastructure with Terraform and Kubernetes.
- Use monitoring and alerting to alert on symptoms not outages.
- Document every action so that your findings turn into repeatable actions (playbooks) and then into automation.
- Improve the deployment process--we want to make it as boring as possible.
- Design, build and maintain core infrastructure pieces that allow DSX to scale to support hundreds and then thousands of concurrent users.
- Debug production issues across services and levels of the stack.
- Plan the growth of the DSX infrastructure.
You may be a fit for this role if you:
- Think about systems, and particularly edge cases and failure modes.
- Know your way around Linux and the Unix .
- Have strong programming skills--preferably Nodejs, but it could be Python, Go, .NET or even Ruby.
- Have an urge to collaborate and communicate asynchronously.
- Have an urge to document all the things so you dont need to learn the same thing twice.
- Have an enthusiastic, go-for-it attitude. When you see something broken, you cant help but fix it.
- Have an urge for delivering quickly and iterating fast.
- Have experience with Nginx, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform.
- Have good experience with GitHub.
- Coding infrastructure automation with GitHub Actions and Terraform.
- Improving our Prometheus Monitoring or building new Metrics.
- Helping to deploy new versions of DSX.
- Helping to plan, prepare for, and execute the migration of DSX from virtual machines running on Azure to cloud-native container-based deployments with Kubernetes using Azure Kubernetes Service.
Skills:
- General knowledge of 4 of the following areas of technical expertise with deep knowledge in 1 area:
- Implement ""Infrastructure as Code"" using Terraform and GitHub CI/CD for automation.
- Load balancing of the application including Proxies and CDN.
- Kubernetes and containerising our system.
- Administering a high-availability MSSQL cluster.
- Monitoring and Metrics in Prometheus and Grafana, and their integrations with Slack/PagerDuty.
- Logging infrastructure.
- Backend storage management and scaling.
- Disaster Recovery and High Availability strategy.
- Contributing to code for services and automation.
Good To Have:
- Provide emergency response either by being on-call or by reacting to symptoms according to monitoring and escalation when needed.
- Propose ideas and solutions within the infrastructure team to reduce the workload by automation.
- Plan, design and execute solutions within the team to reach specific, agreed-upon, goals.
- Plan and execute configuration change operations both at the application and the infrastructure level.
- Actively look for opportunities to improve the availability and performance of the system by applying the learnings from monitoring and observation.
- Azure Data Factory.
- Azure DevOps.
- Javascript.
Benefits
- An open culture where you can express your views
- Excellent Work life balance
- A great group of like-minded colleagues
