Description the site reliability engineer will support a premier navy program team in reviewing, assessing, and improving the reliability, resilience, observability, and operational maintainability of next generation navy afloat architecture. The candidate will work with technical staff, navy stakeholders, cybersecurity teams, infrastructure engineers, software teams, and operational representatives to ensure that sre principles are considered early in architecture, design, integration, test, deployment, and sustainment planning.
:
* reviewing proposed navy afloat architecture designs for reliability, availability, scalability, maintainability, cybersecurity alignment, and operational supportability
* identifying architecture and implementation risks that could affect system uptime, fleet usability, maintainability, troubleshooting, patching, monitoring, recovery, or sustainment
* defining and recommending sre-aligned practices for navy afloat systems, including service level objectives, operational metrics, monitoring requirements, alerting thresholds, error budget concepts, incident response workflows, and reliability reporting
* assisting engineering teams in translating operational reliability requirements into technical design considerations, implementation standards, and sustainment procedures
* evaluating system designs against real-world afloat constraints, including limited bandwidth, intermittent connectivity, shipboard infrastructure limits, cybersecurity controls, maintenance windows, disconnected operations, and mission availability requirements
* supporting development of observability strategies, including logging, metrics, tracing, dashboards, alerts, health checks, and performance monitoring
* recommending automation opportunities to reduce manual operational workload, improve repeatability, reduce configuration drift, and improve deployment and sustainment reliability
* supporting root cause analysis for operational issues, test findings, integration failures, or architecture concerns, then converting findings into corrective actions and long-term reliability improvements
* assisting with reliability-focused documentation, including architecture review comments, risk assessments, operational concepts, monitoring plans, sustainment recommendations, incident response workflows, and executive-level technical summaries
* working with cybersecurity stakeholders to ensure reliability recommendations also support dod cybersecurity requirements, including stig compliance, vulnerability management, audit logging, privileged access controls, and continuous monitoring
* participating in technical working groups, architecture reviews, design reviews, test planning sessions, and customer briefings
* supporting planning for deployment, installation, test, checkout, transition to operations, and sustainment handoff activities
