Job Zusammenfassung In dieser Rolle entwirfst du resiliente Cloud-Infrastrukturen und definierst Metriken zur Systemzuverlässigkeit, um die Betriebszeit kritischer Systeme zu sichern und auf Störungen schnell zu reagieren. Deine Rolle im Team Lead architecture and reliability standards across global multi-hyperscaler cloud platforms by partnering with product, engineering, and platform teams to define best practices, deliver guidance on resilient distributed systems, microservices, and event-driven architectures for real-time hearing aid data streams, and promote portable cloud-native stacks that eliminate vendor lock-in. Design and implement high-availability disaster recovery solutions including multi-region deployments, active-active/active-passive failover models, ensuring 99.99% uptime for WSA's mission-critical medical-grade SaaS platform. Oversee system reliability, uptime, and operational health across the global cloud platform supporting millions of connected hearing devices by defining and implementing reliability metrics, SLIs, SLOs, and operational dashboards, while monitoring golden signals and building advanced correlations across logs, metrics, and traces to detect leading failure indicators early and ensure rapid resolution. Drive operational readiness and continuous improvement through multi-region high-availability deployments, disaster recovery procedures, rigorous incident management, root cause analysis, and turning every incident into systemic reliability enhancements for mission-critical workloads. Lead the architecture and implementation of resilient cloud infrastructure and distributed systems, promoting best practices across teams. This includes building platform-portable architectures (e.g., portable database APIs and message-driven systems) with cross-platform failover capabilities such as integrating Azure Service Bus with RabbitMQ on Kubernetes to ensure high availability and flexibility. Champion an automation-first approach using infrastructure as code to deliver reliable and maintainable platforms, while establishing a modern observability framework. This involves implementing OpenTelemetry with Prometheus and Grafana to enable deep system insights, proactive monitoring, and full end-to-end traceability across all services and environments. Scale SRE practices across the organization by mentoring senior engineers, developing strong technical leaders, and embedding repeatable reliability frameworks. Foster a culture of continuous learning by promoting blameless postmortems, encouraging teams to learn from failures, and driving ongoing improvement in system reliability and team practices. Continuously assess and adopt new technologies and architectural approaches that enhance system reliability, scalability, and overall platform resilience, ensuring the organization evolves with modern engineering standards and remains adaptable to changing demands. Unsere Erwartungen an dich Ausbildung Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field. Qualifikationen Expertise in distributed systems, their architecture patterns and failure modes, including microservices, event-driven systems, and messaging platforms (Service Bus, Kafka, RabbitMQ). Good track record implementing infrastructure-as-code and automation frameworks. Strategic thinker with good analytical and problem-solving skills who can balance long-term architectural vision with pragmatic delivery. Good communication and collaboration skills - you can articulate complex technical concepts to both engineering teams and business stakeholders. Calm under pressure with proven ability to lead through high-stakes incidents. Natural mentor who enjoys developing others and building high-performing teams. Great problem-solving and analytical skills. Erfahrung Minimum of 8 or more years of relevant experience in SRE, Software Engineer, or related roles, with a proven track record of leading reliability initiatives and mentoring teams. Experience in designing and operating large-scale SaaS platforms in public cloud environments while applying cloud-agnostic architectural principles. Experience designing highly available fault-tolerant systems, including multi-region deployments, cross-platform failover mechanisms, and disaster recovery architectures. Hands-on experience with container orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes and designing portable platform infrastructure. Proficient in software engineering experience in languages such as C#, Python, TypeScript, or Go, with a focus on building scalable and maintainable systems.
