SRE Jobs

Site Reliability Engineering Roles

Site Reliability Engineers apply software engineering principles to operations problems: defining SLOs, building automated incident response, designing for failure, and keeping production systems at their reliability targets. The practice started at Google and is now standard at any company running large-scale infrastructure. The role blends deep systems knowledge with coding ability, typically in Go or Python, and requires comfort with distributed systems, observability tooling, and on-call rotations.

SRE compensation is among the highest in infrastructure roles, partly due to on-call responsibility. Compare salary data across companies and locations in the listings below.
