Senior SRE, Compute Orchestration

What You’ll Do:

As a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) on the Infra Compute Orchestration (ICO) team, you will create, support, and evolve the infrastructure at Roblox as we build out Roblox's private cloud. ICO's mission is to own and manage our underlying orchestration systems along with elements of service discovery, secrets management and related software layers. 

You Will:

• Create systems & libraries that promote fault-tolerance and resilience– like retries, circuit breakers, and adaptive concurrency limits.
• Build, automate and standardize process automation to create a "golden path" of tooling and platform support that powers the fundamental Roblox ecosystem.
• Create tooling that provides production guardrails, for example evaluating release candidate capacity with load testing tooling before deploying to production.
• Create performance monitoring services and observability towards understanding capacity issues and platform degradations.
• Create tooling that monitors production services and their changes, like generalized canarying services with alerting.
• Analyze systems and system designs for production readiness

You Have:

• Experience: you have a BS degree (or equivalent professional experience) in Computer Science or related engineering field with proven track record including at least 6 years as an SRE or Software Engineer.
• Passion for systems: You have experience and good habits around building software and tools and getting them adopted. Your system's focus advises a view of code needing to be deeply reliable.

You Are:

• A Partner: You know that the best tools integrate broadly with the tooling ecosystem. You approach partners and processes with curiosity and seek to understand a problem deeply before you start coding.
• A Coder: you have experience writing common programming languages (e.g., Go, Java, C#, Rust).
• Passionate about problem-solving, finding creative work solutions, and addressing unexpected challenges as part of a team.
• Problem Solver: you ask the right questions to tackle issues within your expertise and you use data to test your theories.
• Planner: You have experience in large project lifecycles. You have experience working in sprints, breaking down complex tasks into achievements, and reporting status to keep project scheduling accurate.
