  • Execute performance and chaos tests, analyzing results with APM tools to identify stability issues.
  • Document and present findings, analysis, and results to stakeholders.
  • Perform analytics on past incidents to understand root causes and implement automation to prevent recurrence.
  • Demonstrate proficiency with DevOps tools including JIRA, BMC Remedy, and ServiceNow.

  • Backend database experience with Oracle, SQL Server, or Hadoop.
  • Proficiency in Python, UNIX, and Perl/Shell scripting.
  • Experience with CI/CD tools such as Bitbucket, JFrog Artifactory, Jenkins, and Ansible.
  • Familiarity with SRE concepts like SLI/SLOs and error budgets.
  • Experience with Agile/Scrum methodology.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Proficiency in system, network, security, and database operations.
  • Experience with tools such as Tanium, Artifactory, and BMC TrueSight Orchestration.
  • Experience with command-line interfaces (CLI) and third-party API integration.
