About the vacancy
Our client is one of the biggest online retailers worldwide with annual revenue of £1 billion.

The systems we’ve built together are in operation 24/7, contributing to the client’s success.

Site Reliability Engineering is a new role, first introduced by Google, that combines the skills of developers and ops to deliver more reliable, scalable software. The goal is to analyze a diverse set of applications (primarily built using Java, Oracle, AWS, Google Cloud services and a number of other technologies) and bind them into a reliable self-healing suite, working within defined reliability requirements. This requires proactive work to ensure observability, analyze potential bottlenecks and suggest their fixes before they become a production incident.
