What Part Will You Play?

• Chaos engineering - you’re expected to think laterally about how our systems might fail in theory, design tests to demonstrate how they behave in practice, and then formulate and implement remediation plans, as appropriate.
• Pushing our systems to their limits, and then coming up with designs for how to get them to the next performance tier.
• Use practices from DevOps and GitOps to improve automation and processes to make self service possible.
• Safeguarding reliability. Ensuring that our services are highly available, resilient against disasters, self-monitoring, and self-healing.
• Running “game days” to test assumptions about reliability and learn what will break before it matters to customers.
• Reviewing designs with an eye toward increasing the holistic stability of our platform and identifying potential risks.
• Building systems to proactively monitor the health, performance and security of our production and non-production virtualized infrastructure.
• Improving our monitoring and alerting systems to make sure engineers get paged when it matters (and don’t get paged when it doesn’t).
• Troubleshooting systems and network issues, alongside our Technical Operations Team.
• Evolving our SDLC, practices, and tooling to account for Site Reliability considerations and best practices.
• Developing runbooks and improving documentation.
