Team: IT Infrastructure and Operations

About the Role

At Databricks Information Technology, we are a product-led organization transforming how we work—from the ease of using our IT services to the applications we develop to scale seamlessly during rapid growth.

As a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), you will bridge the gap between software engineering and systems architecture. You will be a core contributor to the IT Infrastructure team, owning the evolution of core infrastructure and observability platforms. This role requires a strong software engineering mindset and deep technical breadth to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions for "immature" system problems. Your focus will be on building resilient, automated infrastructure that empowers development teams and ensures our cloud environment is cost-optimized, secure, and highly available.

The Impact You Will Have

Reliability and Performance Engineering:Optimize system performance, architecture, and scaling to ensure maximum uptime and minimal latency for critical IT services.

CI/CD Excellence: Architect robust deployment pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions), managing both hosted and self-hosted runners for specialized build requirements.

Observable by Default: Create underlying infrastructure to ensure new internal applications are secure and have logging, metrics and alerts enabled by default.

Agentic ToolingI: Build internal AI plugins, and automation scripts to streamline developer workflows and enhance operational efficiency.

Incident Response: Focus on subsequent data usage, incident management workflows, and creating necessary dashboards to maintain service health. Participate in a shared on-call rotation, leading rapid incident response and technical troubleshooting for production outages.Facilitate blameless post-mor
