Senior Site Reliability Engineer - Observability and Telemetry Platform

Details

Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) at NVIDIA is an engineering discipline to design, build and maintain large scale production systems with high efficiency and availability using the combination of software and systems engineering practices. This is a highly specialized discipline which demands knowledge across different systems, networking, coding, database, capacity management, continuous delivery and deployment and open source cloud enabling technologies like Kubernetes and OpenStack. SRE at NVIDIA ensures that our internal and external facing GPU cloud services run maximum reliability and uptime as promised to the users and at the same time enabling developers to make changes to the existing system through careful preparation and planning while keeping an eye on capacity, latency and performance. SRE is also a mindset and a set of engineering approaches to running better production systems and optimizations. Much of our software development focuses on eliminating manual work through automation, performance tuning and growing efficiency of production systems.

Responsibilities

• Design, implement and support operational and reliability aspects of large scale Observability & Telemetry collection platform with a focus on performance at scale, real time monitoring, logging and alerting.
• Engage in and improve the whole lifecycle of services—from inception and design through deployment, operation and refinement.
• Support services before they go live through activities such as system design consulting, developing software tools, platforms and frameworks, capacity management and launch reviews.
• Maintain services once they are live by measuring and monitoring availability, latency and overall system health.
• Scale systems sustainably through mechanisms like automation, and evolve systems by pushing for changes that improve reliability and velocity.
• Practice sustainable incident response and blameless postmortems.
• Be part of an on call rotation to support production systems.

Requirements

• BS degree in Computer Science or a related technical field involving coding (e.g., physics or mathematics), or equivalent experience.
• 5+ years of experience with Infrastructure automation, distributed systems design, experience with design, develop tools for running large scale private or public cloud system in Production.
• 5+ years experience delivering foundational infrastructure and observability platforms.
• Experience in one or more of the following: Python, Go, Perl or Ruby.
• In depth knowledge on Linux, Networking and Containers.

Benefits

• You will also be eligible for equity and benefits. NVIDIA accepts applications on an ongoing basis.
