Jobbeschreibung

Senior SRE — RTCDP Datastores & AI/ML Ops

Adobe’s Real‑Time Customer Data Platform (RTCDP) powers personalized experiences for some of the world’s largest brands. As a Senior SRE on this team, you’ll be central to keeping RTCDP reliable, scalable, and operationally excellent at global scale. This is a hands‑on, high‑ownership role at the intersection of production operations (Day’2 ownership) and core datastore engineering, with a growing surface area in operationalizing AI/ML services and workflows.

What You’ll Do

Own production reliability

• Own day‑to‑day reliability for RTCDP services — availability, performance, and durability against SLOs
• Participate in on‑call rotations and incident response, driving mitigation and recovery through SEV3–SEV1 events
• Lead post‑incident reviews and follow‑up work
• Strengthen operational readiness, playbooks, and on‑call health
• Partner with product and platform teams on production‑ready launches and regional expansions

Operate and evolve core datastores

• Drive reliability, scaling, and operational excellence across Aerospike, FoundationDB, Postgres, and CosmosDB/DynamoDB
• Own upgrades, capacity management, backup/restore, and DR testing
• Build automation for provisioning, scaling, and lifecycle management
• Identify and ship cost optimizations (rightsizing, storage/compute efficiency)

Drive automation and observability

• Build automation‑first solutions that reduce toil and improve system safety
• Improve monitoring, alerting, and observability — anchored to real customer impact
• Establish standardized operational patterns across services and regions
• Support the rollout of SLO‑driven reliability practices

Contribute to AI/ML Ops (emerging area)

• Support infrastructure and operational needs for AI/ML‑powered services in RTCDP
• Shape operational practices for model serving and data pipelines — reliability, scaling, monitoring
• Help land core MLOps patterns where relevant: model deployment workflows, inference observability (latency, errors), data quality and pipeline reliability signals
• Partner with ML and data teams to get AI‑driven features production‑ready
• Leverage AI‑assisted tools (e.g., Copilot, Claude Code, Codex, internal tooling) to accelerate debugging, incident response, and operational workflows

Technical leadership and collaboration

• Operate as a strong IC and technical lead on cross‑cutting projects
• Mentor junior engineers and raise team practices
• Partner closely with engineering, infrastructure, and security
• Live the core SRE/DevOps principles: ownership, automation, error budgets, continuous improvement

Why this role is interesting

• Deep involvement in production systems at global scale
• Hands‑on ownership spanning operations and datastore platforms
• Exposure to next‑generation work: AI/ML systems and AI‑assisted engineering
• Direct impact on customer reliability, platform scalability, and cost
• A clear path toward architect‑level influence over time

What We’re Looking For

• 6–10 years in SRE, infrastructure, or platform engineering
• Proven track record operating large‑scale distributed systems in production
• Strong foundation in datastores, reliability engineering, and automation
• Hands‑on experience with Kubernetes and containerized environments, a major cloud (AWS, Azure, or GCP), and modern observability tooling (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, or equivalents)
• Real experience in incident response and driving operational improvements out of it
• Working knowledge of — or genuine interest in — AI/ML systems or MLOps (expertise not required)
• Comfortable with scale, ambiguity, and high ownership
• Strong problem‑solving instincts and a bias for action
