A financial client is looking for a fully remote Site Reliability Engineer to add to their growing team. The company itself has been in the process of building out a new cloud platform and are embracing a cloud first mindset moving forward. They are looking for a true problem solver to join the SRE team which is somewhat in its infancy but is on a trajectory to take ownership of a wide range of observability within the infrastructure/platform. This team isn't owning the day-to-day monitoring aspects of observability, but more so tasked to discover the gaps in observability. For instance, some of their shared services (Mulesoft, Collibra, Confluent, Kafka, APIC) don't have as much visibility as they should so this team would do things like writing tools that send metrics to Splunk or writing utilities that provide data metrics for some of these services.

The biggest priority for this role is to be proficient with IaC, configuration management, Linux, and cloud experience. The cloud platform is being built in Google Cloud Platform although experience in other clouds is acceptable.
