First, you will work proactively to prevent incidents by identifying operational risks, anticipating capacity constraints, improving production changes, resolving recurring problems, and driving reliability improvements, migrations, and corrective initiatives. Second, when incidents occur, you will help restore service quickly by coordinating technical diagnosis, controlling the situation, communicating impact, and leading recovery efforts.\nThis is a senior, hands-on role for someone with a strong operational mindset who is comfortable working in complex production environments, investigating technical issues, making decisions under pressure, and taking ownership of platform reliability.\nYou will be part of the Site Reliability Engineering team, working in a practical environment focused on keeping the platform stable while continuously reducing operational risk and manual effort.\nA key part of the role will be to identify what could affect the platform before it becomes an incident. You will assess risks, make them visible, define mitigation or correction plans, assign ownership, and follow actions through to completion. You will also contribute to capacity planning, production scaling, infrastructure improvements, migrations, observability, automation, and operational readiness.\nWhen incidents happen, you will act as a technical reference and coordination point. You will help establish control, assess impact, accelerate diagnosis, involve the right teams, communicate clearly, and restore service as quickly and safely as possible.\nYou will work closely with engineering, systems, networking, storage, database, security, and product teams. Your operational perspective will help ensure that reliability, scalability, recoverability, and operability are considered in platform changes and evolution.\nParticipation in an on-call rotation and response to critical incidents outside regular working hours are part of the role.\nRequirements that are important for us\nWe are looking for a senior Site Reliability Engineer with strong experience operating critical production environments and a proven ability to identify risks, troubleshoot complex issues, and drive long-term reliability improvements.\nRelevant experience and expected outcomes\nOperating critical production infrastructures while ensuring availability, stability, performance, and recoverability.\nIdentifying technical and operational risks and driving mitigation, correction, or contingency plans.\nMaintaining a prioritized backlog of risks, recurring problems, capacity constraints, and reliability improvements.\nLeading incident response processes, including impact assessment, technical diagnosis, coordination, communication, and service restoration.\nPerforming root cause analysis and implementing corrective and preventive actions.\nManaging recurring problems and ensuring they remain visible, owned, prioritized, and followed through to resolution.\nMonitoring demand, system limits, growth trends, bottlenecks, and saturation points.\nContributing to capacity planning and executing infrastructure scaling in production environments.\nReviewing infrastructure changes, deployments, maintenance activities, and migrations from a reliability perspective.\nDefining implementation, validation, rollback, and contingency plans for production changes.\nImproving observability through metrics, logs, traces, alerts, dashboards, and service-health indicators.\nImproving runbooks, diagnostic playbooks, recovery procedures, and operational documentation.\nIdentifying repetitive tasks, unnecessary escalations, and manual processes that should be automated or simplified.\nWorking with systems that support web applications, including a solid understanding of HTTP, DNS, TCP/IP, and load balancing.\nAdministering technologies such as NGINX, Apache, load balancers, databases, and related web infrastructure.\nStrong experience with Linux systems and working knowledge of Windows environments.\nGood understanding of networking, virtualization, storage, databases, and infrastructure dependencies.\nFamiliarity with Kubernetes and containerized platforms is highly valuable.\nExperience with cloud infrastructure is highly valuable.\nKey skills and expected impactStrong troubleshooting capabilities and the ability to analyze metrics, logs, traces, events, and system behaviour.\nBroad technical knowledge across infrastructure, applications, networks, storage, and databases.\nStrong risk-based thinking, with the ability to distinguish urgent work from important preventive work.\nAbility to turn operational concerns into concrete actions, owners, deadlines, and measurable outcomes.\nAbility to remain calm under pressure while acting decisively and proactively.\nStrong ownership of platform stability and service recovery.\nStrong coordination skills during incidents, migrations, changes, and technical escalations.\nClear communication with technical teams, stakeholders, and affected parties.\nAbility to challenge unsafe changes or insufficient operational preparation constructively.\nStrong documentation habits and commitment to shared operational knowledge.\nContinuous-improvement mindset focused on reducing incidents, recovery time, operational effort, and manual intervention.\nMotivation to act as a key technical reference during complex and high-impact scenarios.\nToolsObservability tools for metrics, logs, traces, alerting, and dashboards.\nInfrastructure and system-administration tools across Linux and Windows environments.\nNetworking, virtualization, storage, and database technologies.\nWeb infrastructure tools such as load balancers, NGINX, Apache, and proxies.\nCloud infrastructure and configuration-management platforms.\nKubernetes and container orchestration technologies.\nIncident-management and on-call tools.\nOperational documentation tools, runbooks, playbooks, and incident procedures.\nCapacity-planning, performance-analysis, and infrastructure-scaling tools.\nAutomation and scripting tools.\nWhat success looks like\nSuccess in this role means that operational risks are identified early, capacity issues are anticipated, production changes are safer, recurring problems are permanently addressed, and the platform becomes progressively more observable, resilient, scalable, and easier to operate.\nWhen incidents occur, they are controlled quickly, communicated clearly, and resolved with reduced recovery time. The objective is not only to respond better, but to reduce the number, frequency, and impact of incidents over time.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6777,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-09T00:02:38Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":8,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.277,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":284,"expected_fill_days":37,"reasons":["conf:23","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/jotelulu-site-reliability-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/jotelulu-site-reliability-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-17T20:35:50Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":4586,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-18T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":53774},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=53774"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fjotelulu-site-reliability-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fjotelulu-site-reliability-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fjotelulu-site-reliability-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/jotelulu-site-reliability-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fjotelulu-site-reliability-engineer"}]}
