Site Reliability Engineer in Network Infrastructure

Nebius Group; United States; Remote; USD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

Nebius is seeking a Site Reliability Engineer to own the Network infrastructure, defining reliability targets and building tooling to scale reliably. This engineering-first role focuses on measurable SLIs/SLOs, robust change workflows, and strong operability across the global network.

You will collaborate with network engineers and platform teams to embed observability, automate incident response, and ensure rapid recovery from issues as Nebius expands in North America and beyond.

Responsibilities

• Define and own reliability goals for network services and critical paths (SLIs/SLOs, availability targets, error budgets where it makes sense)
• Drive reliability improvements across the whole network: not only services, but also site readiness, inter-site connectivity (DCI), and operational standards
• Own incident response for your areas, lead investigations/postmortems, and turn failures into durable fixes (not repeated firefighting)
• Build and evolve observability: actionable metrics/logs/traces, alerting, and faster debug loops during and after incidents
• Design safer change workflows: automation, CI/CD, test/staging environments, canarying, rollbacks, and auditability for network changes
• Work closely with network engineers and platform teams to embed operability into designs and keep operations practical and fast

Job description

About Nebius : Nebius is leading a new era in cloud infrastructure for the global AI economy. We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure. Built by engineers, for engineers. From large-scale GPU orchestration to inference optimization, we own the hard problems across compute, storage, networking and applied AI. Listed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, North America and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D.

The Role

We’re looking for a Site Reliability Engineer to help build and run the fundamental part of Nebius - the Network - the infrastructure everything else depends on. This is an engineering-first SRE role: you’ll set clear reliability targets, build the tooling and automation to meet them, and make the network safer to operate as we scale quickly. Your responsibilities will include:

• Define and own reliability goals for network services and critical paths (SLIs/SLOs, availability targets, error budgets where it makes sense)
• Drive reliability improvements across the whole network: not only services, but also site readiness, inter-site connectivity (DCI), and operational standards
• Own incident response for your areas, lead investigations/postmortems, and turn failures into durable fixes (not repeated firefighting)
• Build and evolve observability: actionable metrics/logs/traces, alerting, and faster debug loops during and after incidents
• Design safer change workflows: automation, CI/CD, test/staging environments, canarying, rollbacks, and auditability for network changes
• Work closely with network engineers and platform teams to embed operability into designs and keep operations practical and fast
