SRE Manager – Reliability Engineering, Automation & Operational Excellence
Role Overview
Step into a technically hands-on SRE leadership role where you will engineer reliability – not just manage it. Own architecture for monitoring and automation, review infrastructure-as-code with rigor, author operational designs, and personally dive into complex incidents.
Bring an engineering-first mindset: be the leader who sees beyond what is currently working, identifies risks before they become incidents, champions AIOps, and actively expands the team into adjacent platform engineering.
You will lead a 15+ member team supporting large-scale cloud platform reliability across multiple workstreams – driving operational excellence, cloud cost efficiency, and engineering innovation. This is a high-visibility role as the single point of accountability between the vendor team and client engineering leads.

Author runbook designs, define operational architecture, standardize procedures, and continuously raise the reliability bar
Delivery & Execution
Drive delivery in Agile/Scrum against contractual commitments: sprint progress, capacity management, delivery forecasting

Drive deployment operations: staged rollouts, Blue/Green deployments, deployment validation gates, secure deployment practices across cluster-based infrastructure
