The Site Reliability Engineer role centers on modernizing and consolidating a complex multi-cloud environment across AWS, Azure, and GCP, building a scalable, secure, and observable platform from the ground up using Kubernetes, AI/ML infrastructure, and zero-trust principles. You'll combine DevOps and SRE practices to support mission-driven scientific and clinical programs, emphasizing automation, reliability, compliance, and proactive monitoring while enabling innovation through AI-driven tooling. The team culture is highly collaborative and growth-oriented, valuing experimentation, continuous learning, and cross-functional leadership, with opportunities to shape future multi-cloud and platform engineering solutions.

Responsibilities:

Design and implement enterprise-grade monitoring and observability frameworks (metrics, logs, traces) across distributed systems using enterprise Splunk, Grafana and Open-telemetry tools

Establish and manage SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets to drive reliability improvements

Develop and maintain real-time asset inventory systems across cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments

Automate workload onboarding and offboarding processes, ensuring standardization and governance

Track system ownership, dependencies, and lifecycle states for operational transparency

Build proactive detection mechanisms using AIOps and intelligent alerting to minimize incident impact

Design and operate scalable, resilient, and secure infrastructure platforms across cloud and hybrid environments

Implement automated compliance tracking and enforcement aligned with organizational and regulatory standards (e.g., NIST, FISMA, FedRAMP)

Embed ITIL processes (incident, change, problem, configuration management) into SRE workflows

Build and maintain automated deployment environments and pipelines that enforce security, compliance, and operational standards

Develop “golden paths” and standardized platform templates for consistent workload deployment

Automate provisioning, patching, configuration management, and environment lifecycle

Leverage AI/ML coding assistants and vibe coding practices to rapidly develop automation scripts, tools, and internal platforms

Integrate AI-driven tooling into DevOps pipelines for code quality, security scanning, and operational insights

Lead adoption of AI-enhanced SRE practices, including intelligent remediation and predictive operations

Champion DevOps and SRE practices including Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, observability, and reliability engineering

Build developer-friendly platforms (“golden paths”) that simplify deployments, reduce friction, and improve velocity

Enable and optimize infrastructure for AI/ML workloads, including data pipelines, storage systems, and inference environments, GPU-enabled and high-performance compute workloads

Build and manage containerized and orchestrated platforms (Docker, Kubernetes)

Support cloud migration, modernization, and platform standardization initiatives

Ensure systems meet security, compliance, backup, and disaster recovery requirements

Evangelize and promote best practices in DevOps, SRE, and platform engineering to developer communities
