Position Title: Site Reliability Engineer

Reports To: IT COE Leader

Location: Eastern Standard Time – OR – Central Standard Time

Position Summary:

Are you passionate about delivering highly responsive, scalable and top quality solutions that help solve key Performance challenges? Regal Rexnord is seeking a highly motivated, innovative Site Reliability Engineer to help deliver performant software that assists our internal teams and customers. This role will heavily support our APM, while owning the design, development, testing and implementation of performance monitoring tools, and platform improvements. This role will collaborate across various functional teams/organizations to drive innovation in infrastructure capacity planning, reliability, delivery, and management.

We would like you to be a thought leader in the organization about how to use modern tools to resolve production issues with reliable, repeatable, automated processes to eliminate the errors that led to the problem. If you believe in automation as the key to reliability – if you like to think about infrastructure as code, auto-scaling, separating signal from noise in monitoring, and DevOps practices – if you feel comfortable owning the big picture of ecosystem performance, collaborating with specialists to solve problems and not just relying on them, then we would love to talk.

Successful traits for this role include the curiosity to understand complex environments from first principles, a driving need for root cause analysis, and a thought-leadership mentality about expanding automation for reliability.

We are looking for an engineer who has the experience and skills to identify the root cause of performance issues escalated by monitoring – a generalist who can help to isolate what category of the technology stack is impacting performance so that solutions can be sought in collaboration with specialist teams who own those areas. If a user is experiencing delays – Is it browser processing of JavaScript? Is it application processing to generate dynamic HTML? Is database response time the culprit, but signals point to I/O throughput as the bottleneck? Is it an environment / operating system problem? Is this bandwidth / infrastructure?

You should have the background to be able to sort through monitoring data, tune what data is collected to pinpoint a problem and bring the right experts to the table. You should be able to identify the patterns in the granular monitoring data to tell whether a bad average performance metric is being driven by spikes of long delays, or a repeatable consistent problem.

Major Responsibilities:

Responsible for Application Performance Monitoring tool administration and management by monitoring availability and taking a holistic view of system health

Understand business / technical requirements and the overall business objectives of applications

Responsible for tracking and publishing of performance (availability, end-to-end response times, throughput, transactions per second, capacity, error rates, etc.) of applications and that it meet or exceed customer expectations, with an eye toward pushing our capabilities forward, getting ahead of customer needs, and innovating to continually improve

Reduce organizational ‘toil’ via automation, scripting, and implementation and management of toolsets

Responsible for identifying non-compliance areas and partnering with development and/or infrastructure to correct performance issues

Partner with operations and developers to develop real-time tools i.e. automated performance dashboards provide periodic updates on application performance to all the stakeholders

Develop tools and dashboards to automate performance monitoring, testing, analyzing, and reporting issues

Debug, troubleshoot, and work with the development and/or infrastructure teams to resolve and correct performance or scalability issues

Facilitate Root Cause Analysis (RCA), and continue to improve upon existing RCA methods and conduct post-mortems

Support different types of performance tests, for example, load, stress, volume, scalability, and endurance

Strategize and execute end to end performance engineering efforts to achieve highly flexible, scalable, distributed cloud, hybrid, and on-perm systems

Understanding Database performance and collaborating with DBA’s (SQL, Solr, etc.)

Analyze performance test results, and work with cross functional teams to identify performance bottlenecks and their root cause

Passion for providing and driving change to improve Performance, Scalability and Reliability of all systems

Efficiently work with various profiling tools such as Dynatrace, Lighthouse, GTMetrix, and others as needed. Point to identify performance, scalability, and concurrency bottlenecks
