As an experienced Site Reliability Engineering professional, you'll be making decisions of a global and strategic nature that impact our customers, clients, and businesses around the globe. Your expertise in analyzing complex data systems, anticipating problems, and finding ways to mitigate risk, will be key in leading a high-performing team to successfully design and navigate the program roadmap. By incorporating your knowledge of business drivers, you will affect change and lead the development of innovative improvements and world-class practices. You will help build a meaningful engineering discipline, combining software and systems to develop creative engineering solutions to operations problems. Additionally, your skills in software development on Python and AI implementation will enhance our capabilities in automating processes and improving system intelligence.

You will be responsible for driving results, and implementing multiple, complex programs that span the breadth of the business, and they’ll look to you to provide the technical leadership to move them forward. And while you will be part of a tight-knit team that shares your passion for technology, you’ll also gain access to the best minds in the business— as part of the JPMorgan Chase and through our partnerships with some of the most important tech firms in the world. In this environment, you’ll take the lead on relevant projects, supported by an organization that provides the support and mentorship you need to learn and grow. As an SRE, you’ll be focused on running better production applications and systems, with an emphasis on integrating AI capabilities to enhance system reliability and performance.

Job responsibilities:

Design, code, test, and deliver software to automate manual operational work, with a focus on Python development and AI integration. Partner with different application teams throughout the life cycle to understand their application infrastructure and monitoring and apply Site Reliability Principles to baseline and setup SLOs. Identify application patterns and data-driven approaches to defend and improve service level objectives. Develop automated software upgrades, change management, release management, and self-healing solutions, leveraging AI technologies where applicable. Responsibilities extend to application deployment, change management, incident management, capacity upgrades, reporting, system integration, and essentially ensuring the availability of stable and performing platforms. Troubleshoot priority incidents, facilitate blameless post-mortems, and ensure permanent closure of incidents. Excellent communication and ability to build and maintain relationships is essential. This role requires someone who is a quick learner, detail-oriented with the experience of working efficiently and effectively in a global distributed environment. Designs and conducts performance tests, identifies bottlenecks, opportunities for optimization, and capacity demand. Defines and drives adoption of a best-in-class monitoring framework to accomplish end-to-end flow monitoring and noiseless alerting. Facilitates maximum speed of delivery by objectively binding to error budgets of the service. Coaches other team members and manages teams as needed. Executes small to medium projects independently with initial direction and eventually graduates to designing and delivering projects by yourself Leverages technology to solve business problems by writing high quality, maintainable, and robust code following best practices in software engineering Participates in triaging, examining, diagnosing, and resolving incidents and work with others to solve problems at their root Recognizes the toil within your role and proactively works towards eliminating it through either systems engineering or updating application code Understands observability patterns and strives to implement and improve service level indicators, objectives monitoring, and alerting solutions for optimal transparency and analysis
