Job Description

Site Reliability Engineer

Location : Gurugram/ Panchkula

Experience : 6 to 8 years

Notice period : Immediate joiners

Note :

We are strictly looking for candidates with hands-on experience in Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), TechOps, or Application Support in production environments. Candidates with only DevOps/Cloud Infrastructure experience and no production support or incident management ownership are requested not to apply.

Position Summary :


We are seeking a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) with 6 to 7 years of experience in tech operations and application support, with a strong focus on production reliability, monitoring, and operational ownership. The engineer will own incident resolution, maintain secrets and credentials lifecycle, and drive tech hygiene and operational improvements across business-critical applications hosted on AWS.

The engineer will coordinate closely with development, platform, and infrastructure teams on operational deliverables. Where tasks require skills or capacity beyond the SRE's scope, the expectation is to actively coordinate and follow through to closure. The role is SRE-first, with DevOps responsibilities introduced progressively based on bandwidth and team need.

Experience & Required Skill Sets :


- Minimum of 6 to 7 years of experience in SRE, Application Support, or TechOps roles.

- Incident Management : Experience owning end-to-end incident lifecycle including triage, resolution, root cause analysis, and post-incident documentation following ITIL practices.

- Monitoring and Observability : Hands-on experience configuring monitoring, alerting, health checks, and escalation policies using Datadog and PagerDuty. Ability to proactively identify monitoring gaps, reduce alert noise, and ensure correct alert routing and ownership across applications and environments.

- Secrets and credentials management : Experience managing end-to-end secrets lifecycle including rotation scheduling, expiry monitoring, and coordination with application and DBA teams using AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault, and Beacon Vault.

- AWS and cloud operations : Working knowledge of AWS S3 and IAM for operational tasks such as key management, access provisioning, and permission-related requests.

- Scripting for operational automation : Ability to write and maintain scripts using Bash or equivalent for operational tasks such as alert automation, health checks, and monitoring scripts. AI-assisted scripting tools may be used to support delivery.

- Version control and pipeline onboarding : Basic working knowledge of GitHub and GitHub Actions to onboard repositories onto standardised CI/CD workflows provided by the platform team by importing templates and configuring repository-specific variables.

- Documentation and coordination : Ability to create and maintain runbooks, wikis, and operational procedures, and to coordinate effectively with development, platform, infrastructure, and business teams to drive deliverables to closure.

Good To Have :


- Familiarity with Terraform for reviewing or making minor infrastructure changes.

- Exposure to Kubernetes/EKS for operational tasks such as pod management and service decommissioning.

- Exposure to job scheduling platforms such as Autosys for job audits and operational reviews.

- Comfortable working in an environment where a central team owns and maintains shared tooling, pipelines, and workflows, and the SRE's role is to adopt, configure, and operationalise them for their applications rather than build from scratch.

- Relevant certifications such as AWS Certified SysOps Administrator or AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner.

- Basic understanding of full-stack application development, debugging data-intensive applications, and exposure to Oracle & Snowflake.

Education :


- Bachelors degree or masters in computer science, Engineering, Software Engineering or a relevant field
