Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Bright Vision Technologies is a forward-thinking software development company dedicated to building innovative solutions that help businesses automate and optimize their operations. We are seeking an experienced Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to ensure the availability, performance, and operational excellence of large-scale distributed systems in production, applying strong software engineering principles to infrastructure and operations problems.ResponsibilitiesDefine, instrument, and continually refine service-level objectives (SLOs), service-level indicators (SLIs), and error budgets for critical services, and use those measures to drive concrete engineering and prioritization decisionsLead incident response and resolution for production issues, acting as a calm and effective incident commander when needed, and ensuring high-quality post-incident reviews that drive lasting improvementsDesign and implement comprehensive monitoring, logging, and tracing strategies using Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, ELK/EFK, Datadog, or similar tooling so that operators have rich, actionable visibility into system behaviorBuild and maintain robust on-call processes, runbooks, and escalation paths that reduce mean time to detect and mean time to resolve while protecting the well-being of the engineers on rotationAutomate operational toil aggressively by writing production-grade tooling in Python, Go, Bash, or similar languages, replacing manual workflows with reliable, auditable automationArchitect and operate large-scale Kubernetes clusters and container-based workloads, including autoscaling, capacity planning, network policy, and integration with service meshesDesign CI/CD pipelines that promote safe, frequent, and observable releases, supported by automated testing, canary deployments, feature flags, and progressive rollout strategiesLead capacity planning and performance engineering activities, building models that predict growth and stress, and validating those models through load testing and chaos experimentsPartner closely with application development teams to embed reliability practices early in design — including failure-mode analyses, graceful degradation patterns, and dependency hardeningStrengthen the platform’s resiliency through chaos engineering, fault injection, dependency isolation, retries, timeouts, circuit breakers, and well-tested failover pathsDrive continuous improvement of security posture in collaboration with security teams, including patch management, vulnerability remediation, and secure-by-default platform defaultsContribute to the technical roadmap for reliability tooling, observability platforms, and developer-experience improvements that reduce friction and improve outcomes for engineering teamsMentor engineers across the organization on SRE practices and foster a strong, blameless culture of operational excellenceSkillsBachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical disciplineFive or more years of SRE, DevOps, or production engineering experience supporting large-scale distributed systemsStrong programming skills in at least one of Python, Go, or Java, with the ability to build robust automation and toolingDeep, hands-on experience operating Linux at scale, including networking, performance tuning, and systems-level troubleshootingProduction experience operating Kubernetes and container-based workloadsStrong working knowledge of observability tooling such as Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, ELK/EFK, or commercial equivalentsHands-on experience designing and operating CI/CD pipelines for both infrastructure and applicationsSolid understanding of distributed system design, including consistency models, partitioning, and failure semanticsDemonstrated experience leading incident response and conducting effective post-incident reviewsExcellent communication and documentation skillsExperience defining and operationalizing SLOs and error budgets in real production environmentsExposure to chaos engineering practices and tools such as Chaos Monkey, Gremlin, or LitmusHands-on experience with at least one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP)Background in capacity planning, performance engineering, or large-scale load testingFamiliarity with service mesh technologies such as Istio, Linkerd, or ConsulBenefitsCompetitive base salary commensurate with experience, plus benefits.Full-time, direct W2 with Bright Vision Technologies (no C2C, no 1099, no third-party)H1B transfers welcomed for qualified candidates.Company OverviewBright Vision Technologies is an information technology company that offers software development, AI, and cybersecurity services.
