Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) | Senior

Project overview

Within a critical cloud and application environment, we are looking for a Site Reliability Engineer to join a platform focused on reliability, observability, and operational performance.

Your mission: guarantee the stability of production services, manage incident response, and drive the continuous improvement of operational practices, transforming production observations into concrete and sustainable improvements.

You will be a key player in the platform's reliability, working closely with technical teams to define and implement an observability and resilience strategy aligned with business needs.

Main missions

Reliability, observability, and steering

Incident management and continuous improvement

Automation and engineering

External dependencies and suppliers

Collaboration, knowledge sharing, and efficiency

• Maintain platform supervision: metrics, logs, traces, and automated checks; identify uncovered areas.
• Implement and steer Service Level Objectives (SLI/SLO) in line with technical and business expectations.
• Produce operational reports usable by the teams; ensure alert configuration is reliable to only alert on essentials.
• Be involved in significant crises: qualification, assessment of the impacted scope, technical orchestration, and return to normal.
• Feed back lessons learned and post-incident reviews in a constructive framework; verify over time that decided actions are bearing fruit.
• Strengthen detection capabilities, ensure recovery procedures and operational documents are reliable.
• Build and maintain internal SRE tooling; approach supervision from a versioned code perspective.
• Reduce recurring operational load: eliminate what does not add value, then industrialize the rest.
• Quantify the benefits obtained: volume, time spent, solicitations, and prevented incidents; maintain human control over sensitive operations.
• Monitor the health of external service providers, implement dedicated reporting, and detect their malfunctions.
• Assess the consequences for business uses and objectively document information useful for dialogue with suppliers.
• Support teams, participate in architecture discussions, and propose avenues to make the platform more robust and operable.
• Disseminate SRE culture, capitalize on documentation, lead sharing sessions, and make teams more autonomous.
• Participate in optimizing the observability budget: relevance of data reported, volume, retention periods, and superfluous uses.
