SRE/Devops Engineer

SRE/Devops Engineer
Locations can be any of Tampa, Jersey City or Dallas.

• Design & Delivery Partnership: Participate in design reviews, sprint zero, and delivery planning to champion non-functional requirements (NFRs) including resiliency, observability, fault tolerance, Holiday and Special days processing, as well as disaster recovery.
• Major Release Management Partnership: Collaborate with Major Release Management to ensure each Risk release meets SRE standards for observability and resiliency (SLIs/SLOs, monitoring, knowledge base articles). Ensure releases are subject to required deployment validations.
• Monitoring, Observability & AI Enablement: Define and evolve monitoring, alerting, SLIs, and SLOs, leveraging AI/ML-driven analytics for anomaly detection, incident correlation, and early risk identification.
• Minimizing Application Recovery Time: Make design recommendations that will quick detection of outage conditions and allow the application to recover without manual interventions and/or create a knowledge based guidance for application support team to follow for improved application recovery times. Participate in major incident response / Root Cause analysis to drive continual systemic recovery time improvements.
• Automation & Self-Healing: Drive automation and intelligent tooling (including AI-assisted remediation) to reduce manual toil and improve consistency and recovery times.
• Operational Readiness & Risk Management: Attend and present operational readiness with application support (EAS L2) at project management meeting - raise any operational risks and concerns. Test NFRs in UAT environments to validate effectiveness and completeness of operational capabilities. Validate operational readiness prior to release with stakeholders, partner with Embedded Risk and Security teams, and proactively surface and mitigate technology and operational risks.
• Capacity & Performance Optimization: Lead capacity planning and performance analysis to ensure Risk platforms scale reliably under high load.
• Metrics & Continuous Improvement: Establish KPIs and operational metrics to demonstrate reliability improvements and operational maturity.
• People & Culture: Build a strong SRE culture -enhanced by AI-driven insights-across Risk Application Support and Development through mentorship and best-practice coaching; leverage approved AI tools to analyze code and collaborate on knowledge base articles, and to accelerate improvements in observability, performance, security, and maintainability.
