Job description

We are looking for a proactive Site Reliability Engineer to enhance our production ecosystems by developing a sophisticated, data-driven reliability framework. This role involves ensuring our services are resilient, scalable, and observable while treating operations as a software problem. The SRE team member will focus on building self-healing systems and reducing toil through automation. You will also partner with development teams to integrate reliability into the CI/CD pipeline.

Requirements

  • Understanding of Linux internals and deep networking expertise, including HTTP/2, HTTP/3, and HTTPS/TLS.
  • Proven ability to automate repetitive tasks and complex workflows using Python or Go.
  • Experience configuring and managing modern monitoring suites such as Prometheus, Grafana, and ClickHouse.
  • Practical knowledge of SLIs, SLOs, Error Budgets, Release Management, and Incident Management.
  • Experience managing cloud environments such as AWS, GCP, or Azure using Terraform, Ansible, or Pulumi.
  • Hands-on experience scaling and securing containerized workloads via Kubernetes.
  • Ability to consult with product teams on service design for long-term maintainability.
  • Practical fluency in applying Generative AI tools within SRE and software engineering workflows.

Responsibilities

  • Drive the vision for visibility beyond simple uptime metrics.
  • Design and implement a next-generation observability and alerting strategy.
  • Build self-healing systems and reduce toil through aggressive automation.
  • Partner with development teams to integrate reliability into the CI/CD pipeline.
  • Identify and mitigate performance bottlenecks proactively.
  • Lead blameless post-mortems to improve system resilience.
  • Shift the engineering mindset from fixing issues to designing systems that prevent failures.

Benefits

  • Employees at Apple are often offered comprehensive benefits that support physical and mental well-being—flexible medical plans, confidential counseling, onsite wellness centers at major campuses, and resources for fitness and daily life. Families typically receive fertility support, paid parental leave with gradual return, caregiving leave, and dependent-care guidance, while financial perks commonly include stock grants (with purchase discounts), 401(k) matching, and income-protection coverage. Employees also see robust time off, Apple University learning and tuition reimbursement, donation matching and paid volunteer hours, and deep product and partner discounts.
