## Description

As a Site Reliability Engineer on the team, you will be responsible for helping to build and run these mission critical systems. Through the implementation of monitoring and automation, you will constantly ensure the health, reliability, scalability, and performance of the platforms.

The Site Reliability team interacts with engineering teams including ingest/data processing, mapping, labeling, triage, machine learning (detection, prediction, tracking), motion planning/control, offline simulation, and release/deployment teams to provide uniform service observability and incident response.

What you'll do:

 * Build monitoring to ensure our platform is healthy and its reliability measurable
 * Build alerting and a set of runbooks to enable faster detection and remediation of platform issues
 * Debug complex issues that may combine multiple components of the stack and ensure proper fixes are implemented to prevent these issues from happening again
 * Participate in an on-call rotation and culture of continuous improvement through blameless postmortems
 * Design and implement components of the platform to enable features that make the work of our customers possible, simpler and more efficient
 * Build Kubernetes controllers to automate operations
