FOCUS
Application SRE, DevOps, and Reliability Evaluation during Cloud Migration – Application Layer Only
This role owns reliability at the application layer: how services behave under load, how they're deployed, and how they hold up as they move through cloud migration. It sits alongside – not inside – the existing infrastructure SRE function.
TECHNICAL SKILLS
Application Reliability & Observability
- SLI/SLO definition and error budget management
- APM / observability instrumentation and alert design (Dynatrace or equivalent)
- Application-tier incident response, root cause analysis, blameless postmortems
- Load, failover, and resilience testing methodology
- Reliability patterns: circuit breakers, retries, timeouts, graceful degradation
DevOps & Delivery Engineering
- CI/CD pipeline design and hardening (Azure DevOps or equivalent), including rollback safety
- Infrastructure-as-code and environment reproducibility across Sandbox/NonProd/Prod
- GitOps / version-controlled deployment workflows
- Hands-on with at least two of Azure, AWS, GCP, OCI (Azure/AWS priority)
- Application architecture assessment for migration readiness – dependency mapping, single-point-of-failure identification
- Pre- and post-migration reliability validation and go/no-go sign-off
- Performance baselining and capacity planning across environments
Automation & Scripting
- Python and/or Bash for tooling, automation, and diagnostics
- PowerShell for Windows-based application environments
- REST API integration for pipeline and observability tooling
Security, Compliance & Governance Awareness
- DevSecOps practices – security scanning integrated into CI/CD
- Working knowledge of IAM/least-privilege principles as applied to application service accounts
- Comfortable operating in a SOX-audited environment; documentation and audit-trail discipline
- Coordination with CRE/security on Infrastructure Cloud Operations and vulnerability remediation affecting application workloads
BASELINE EXPECTATIONS
- 8+ years in cloud engineering, SRE, or DevOps roles, with 3+ years at senior/architect level
- Certifications a plus: Azure Solutions Architect Expert, AWS Certified Solutions Architect, Certified Kubernetes Administrator
- Strong stakeholder communication – works directly with application owners without overstepping ownership boundaries
- Delivery experience with demonstrated ability to work independently across time zones
