What Does a Site Reliability Engineer Do?
A Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) makes sure services stay fast, available and resilient as they grow. They set reliability targets (SLOs), automate away toil, run incident response, and build the monitoring and tooling that keep production healthy — engineering applied to operations.
SRE work is deeply infrastructure- and automation-focused, which maps naturally to remote teams. Cloud, observability and on-call experience are consistently in demand.
