Site Reliability Engineer

JR United Kingdom; Manchester; Hybrid; GBP 40,000 - 80,000; Full time

Job description

Time to enhance your scope; broaden your horizon by delving into Site Reliability Engineering (SRE).

You’ll take the skills you have picked up in software engineering and apply these to improve overall system and application performance and reliability. You’ll work on internal developer tooling, using modern programming languages such as Golang, Python or TypeScript - so knowledge of one of these languages is required, you can learn the others!

You will be developing solutions to complex monitoring, automation, and capacity management problems so prior working experience of approaching tasks methodically to solve engineering problems is key. In addition to your programming skills, knowledge of metrics, monitoring and observability would be highly beneficial. Experience with the full SDLC and deployments of code through pipelines into containers - modern cloud native software engineering, would be beneficial.

This role offers the chance to work on a large scale infrastructure that has to operate at high speed to meet substantial consumer demand. A 24/7 uptime is essential in this enterprise environment, where stability, scalability and performance is paramount to the company's continuing success. Collaboration is second nature to the teams, they know that they must work together to ensure problems are solved, issues are fixed and engineering stays at the forefront of the industry.

The role is hybrid, as collaboration both within and across teams is crucial to the company's technical output. You will be rewarded with a solid pension, free gym membership, 5 weeks holiday plus bank holidays and hefty bonus too.
