About the Job

Red Hat is seeking a Senior Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to develop, scale, and operate our OpenShift managed cloud services. OpenShift is Red Hat’s enterprise Kubernetes distribution. As an SRE you will contribute to running OpenShift at scale by enabling customer self-service, making our monitoring system more sustainable, and eliminating work through automation.

On the SRE team, you will have the opportunity to influence the complex challenges of scale which are unique to Red Hat managed cloud services, while using your skills in coding, operations, and large-scale distributed system design.

Red Hat relies on teamwork and openness for its success. We are a global team and strive to cultivate a transparent environment that makes room for different voices. We learn from our failures in a blameless environment to support the continuous improvement of the team. At Red Hat, your individual contributions have more visibility than most large companies, and visibility means career opportunities and growth.
 

What You'll Do

The day-to-day responsibilities of an SRE involve working with live systems and coding automation. As an SRE you will be expected to:

  • Contribute code to increase the scalability and reliability of the service

  • Contribute software tests and participate in peer review to increase the quality of our codebase

  • Help and develop peers’ capabilities through knowledge sharing, mentoring, and collaboration

  • Participate in a regular on-call schedule, including occasional paid weekends and holidays

  • Practice sustainable incident response and blameless postmortems

  • Resolve customer issues escalated from the Red Hat Global Support team

  • Work within a small agile team to develop and improve SRE software, support your peers, plan and self-improve

What You'll Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related technical field; or equivalent experience

  • Programming experience in at least one of the following languages: Python, Golang, Java, C, C++ or another object-oriented language

  • Experience working with public clouds such as AWS, GCP, or Azure

  • Ability to collaboratively troubleshoot and solve problems in a team setting

  • Experience troubleshooting an as-a-service offering (SaaS, PaaS, etc.)

  • Experience working with complex distributed systems. Direct experience with Kubernetes or OpenShift is a plus. We like to see a demonstrated ability to debug, optimize code and automate routine tasks. We are Red Hat, so you need a basic understanding of Unix/Linux operating systems.

Desired skills

  • Demonstrated ability to debug, optimize code and automate routine tasks

  • 2+ years of experience programming with at least one object-oriented language; Golang, Java, or Python are preferred

  • 2+ years of experience delivering a hosted service

  • 2+ years of experience managing Linux servers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), CentOS, or Fedora hosted at a cloud provider such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Compute Engine (GCE), or Microsoft Azure

  • 3+ years of experience with enterprise systems monitoring; knowledge of Prometheus is a plus

  • 3+ years of experience with enterprise configuration management software like Ansible by Red Hat, Puppet, or Chef

  • Demonstrated ability to quickly and accurately troubleshoot system issues

  • Solid understanding of standard TCP/IP networking and common protocols like DNS and HTTP

  • Solid communications skills and experience working directly with and presenting to customers

  • 1+ year(s) of experience with Kubernetes is a plus

  • 1+ year(s) of experience with docker-based containers is a plus

The salary range for this position is $122,350.00 - $201,990.00. Actual offer will be based on your qualifications.
