Site Reliability Engineer II

Posted 1 week ago by Brookwood Recruitment

Join us in a hands-on Site Reliability Engineering role where operations is treated as a software problem. As an SRE II, you’ll help keep critical services reliable, scalable, and efficient—building automation to reduce toil, strengthening observability, and contributing to incident response and long-term reliability improvements. You’ll own services end-to-end within your team’s scope while collaborating with partner teams to deliver resilient systems that support customer-facing products.

Required Skills

  • Site reliability / production engineering experience, with a strong focus on availability, performance, scalability, latency, and efficiency
  • Software engineering fundamentals: writing clean, maintainable, reusable code; refactoring using appropriate design patterns
  • Automation mindset: ability to reduce manual operational effort through tooling and small product/service improvements
  • Observability: monitoring, alerting, defining meaningful SLIs/SLOs, and using metrics to guide decisions
  • Incident response: ability to troubleshoot live production issues, mitigate impact within SLAs, and contribute to post-incident learning (root cause analysis, postmortems)
  • System design: contributing to architecture decisions with awareness of cost, risk, and future scalability
  • End-to-end service ownership: runbooks/documentation, continuous delivery practices, and operational readiness
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills across engineering and product stakeholders

Nice to Have Skills

  • Experience advising product teams on non-functional requirements (reliability, resilience, performance)
  • Familiarity with continuous delivery/experimentation approaches that reduce risk and accelerate iteration
  • Strong experience improving technical debt hotspots and scaling bottlenecks proactively
  • Comfort acting as a consultant/partner to development teams on SRE practices and standards

Preferred Education and Experience

  • Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent practical experience)
  • Typically 3–5 years of relevant experience in SRE, production engineering, platform engineering, or backend engineering with on-call/operations exposure
