- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (e.g., Advertising, Machine Learning, E-commerce, and Core Infra) to drive system reliability, performance, and scalability.

- Lead initiatives to automate operations, eliminate toil, and improve overall system efficiency.

- Troubleshoot complex production issues, perform root-cause analysis, and drive long-term reliability improvements.

- Promote best practices in system design, observability, performance optimization, and cost efficiency.

- Communicate complex technical concepts effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

任职要求 / Requirements

Minimum Qualifications

- 5+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering, Software Development, or related fields, with a strong focus on designing, building, scaling, and operating cloud-based systems.

- Deep hands-on expertise in at least one of the following areas:

- Databases (SQL/NoSQL)

- Kubernetes or container orchestration

- Big Data processing and storage systems (streaming and batch)

- Strong knowledge of system architecture, distributed systems, and performance bottlenecks.

- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with experience working across engineering, product, and data science teams.

Preferred Qualifications

- Thought leadership in adopting new technologies, improving operational practices, and influencing system design.
