Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) combines software and systems engineering to build and run large-scale, massively distributed, fault-tolerant systems. SRE ensures that Google's services—both our internally critical and our externally-visible systems—have reliability, uptime appropriate to users' needs and a fast rate of improvement.

SRE’s culture emphasizes curiosity, problem solving and openness, collaboration, bold thinking, and a blame-free environment. Our organization provides mentorship and growth opportunities to our engineers.
Responsibilities
- Engage in and improve the whole lifecycle of services—from inception and design, through to deployment, operation and refinement.
- Support services before they go live through activities such as system design consulting, developing software platforms and frameworks, capacity planning and launch reviews.
- Maintain services once they are live by measuring and monitoring availability, latency and overall system health.
- Scale systems sustainably through automation and push for changes that improve reliability and velocity.
- Practice sustainable incident response and blameless postmortems.
Qualifications
- Minimum qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 8 years of software development experience in one or more programming languages.
- 4 years of experience leading projects and providing technical leadership.

- Preferred qualifications:
- Master's degree in Computer Science or Engineering.
