About the role
Senior Site Reliability Engineer for Delinea's Cloud Engineering team, owning availability and performance of production SaaS services in Azure and AWS, including the FedRAMP High environment. Hands-on role focused on reliability metrics, incident response, and reducing manual toil; government cloud experience welcome but not required.
Responsibilities
- Own reliability for a set of production SaaS services end to end: availability, performance, and capacity.
- Define service-level indicators, set service-level objectives and error budgets, and use them to prioritize reliability work with engineering and product teams.
- Build and tune monitoring in Datadog and Azure Monitor, including threshold, composite, and anomaly detection monitors, synthetic checks, dashboards, and alert routing that shorten time to detect and cut alert noise.
- Automate response. Wire monitors into remediation workflows for known failure conditions and replace manual runbook steps with code.
- Participate in an on-call rotation, lead incident response for high-severity events, and coordinate resolution across support, engineering, and product.
- Write post-incident reviews and customer-facing root cause analyses, then drive the preventive actions to completion rather than filing and forgetting them.
- Work support escalations: reproduce the issue, diagnose it from logs, traces, and network captures, resolve it or route it with evidence, and feed recurring patterns back into the product backlog.
- Build and maintain infrastructure as code with Terraform and Azure DevOps pipelines.
- Administer the web application firewall: rule tuning, rate limiting, false positive triage, and coordination with the security team.
- Own the cost of our observability platform: Datadog index and retention spend, custom metric and APM volume, log ingestion rates, and S3 and blob storage for archived logs.
- Operate within our FedRAMP High environment following established change control and continuous monitoring processes, and contribute to runbooks and SOPs.
- Improve how the team runs on-call: rotation design, escalation paths, alert quality, runbook coverage, and handoff between regions.
- Partner across Support, Security, Product, and Development to ensure new services ship with monitoring, runbooks, and SLOs in place.
Qualifications
- 8+ years in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, cloud operations, or production engineering for a SaaS product.
- Hands-on Azure experience across AKS, App Service, Azure SQL, Redis, Service Bus, Front Door, and Storage, including cloud networking and cloud security fundamentals.
- Production experience with an observability platform such as Datadog: metrics, logs, APM, dashboards, and monitor design; ability to write queries.
- Demonstrated ownership of SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets for services supported.
- Incident response experience: running bridges, making calls under pressure, and writing postmortems.
- Kubernetes in production, including ingress, deployments, resource limits, and troubleshooting.
- Infrastructure as code with Terraform, plus CI/CD pipeline creation and troubleshooting (Azure DevOps preferred).
- Scripting in PowerShell and Python, and fluency with YAML and JSON.
- Strong networking and web fundamentals: DNS, TLS and certificate chains, load balancing, reverse proxies, firewalls, and packet-level troubleshooting.
- Knowledge of redundancy, backup, and disaster recovery strategies in cloud environments.
- Clear written communication; ability to write customer-facing RCAs.
- Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation covering weekends and emergencies.
- Up to 10% travel.
