Internal Responsibilities
Key Responsibilities
System Design & Architecture - System Scalability:
- Implements and contributes to the development for components of distributed systems that support horizontal and vertical scaling including leveraging distributed state management tools.
- Optimizes code and/or systems for large-scale data processing in large-scale systems.
- Implements scalability requirements for assigned components and reviews implementation of team members.
- Leverages components of data plane platforms to handle large-scale data retrieval, storage, and processing.
- Implements performance and load testing.
System Design & Architecture - System Reliability Design:
- Collaborates with team to build fault-tolerant components capable of withstanding in-service updates by implementing redundancy, replication, and automatic failover mechanisms.
- Applies recovery oriented computing principles to design components that effectively handle service disruptions.
- Implements retry mechanisms, circuit breakers, and timeouts to help handle network unreliability.
System Design & Architecture - System Reliability Performance:
- Implements tests and alarm configurations to proactively detect and address issues/failures.
- Supports efforts to recover from failures by drafting and executing runbooks and operational procedures.
- Builds and customizes dashboards, telemetry systems, and alerting mechanisms to monitor component health.
System Design & Architecture - Correctness / Availability:
- Designs and implements functional requirements and testing for assigned features within an existing system.
- Implements tests scenarios (e.g., fault-injection, brown-out) to evaluate system correctness.
- Implements standard data replication and synchronization techniques to maintain data integrity and availability.
Operational Troubleshooting & Incident Management:
- Diagnoses, debugs, and resolves issues in system components to support ongoing operation.
- Implements basic strategies to prevent interruptions, ensuring no maintenance windows are required for customers and users when resolving issues.
- Designs and implements automation scripts and tooling used to troubleshoot operational issues.
- Participates in operational support rotations, assisting in incident responses and root cause investigations.
Compliance & Security:
- Applies advanced security measures to protect data and applications in multi-tenant environments, including encryption and access controls.
- Implements remediation plans to continuously improve security.
- Collaborates with the team to ensure cloud infrastructure complies with relevant industry standards and regulations and that documentation is up-to-date
Automation & Change Management:
- Maintains automation scripts and tools (e.g., Infrastructure as Code (IaC)) for managing cloud infrastructure.
- Adheres to change management plans for patching, updating, and rolling back applications.
Core Responsibilities
Planning & Execution:
- Track timelines with minimal supervision, ensuring work is completed in a timely manner and is in alignment with project requirements.
- Prioritize and adjust work as resources or timelines change, with some guidance
Collaboration & Partnership:
- Collaborates across teams to align on expectations and achieve shared objectives. Builds and maintains a comprehensive understanding of business, stakeholder, and/or customer needs to build and support effective partnerships. Actively listens to diverse perspectives and asks questions to ensure understanding of others.
Problem Solving:
- Independently identifies and addresses standard and non-standard issues in accordance with standard practices, escalating more complex issues as appropriate. Analyzes data and/or information from multiple sources to troubleshoot standard and non-standard errors. Contributes to knowledge sharing and best practices
