Summary
Focuses on the reliability, availability, and operational performance of production systems through Site Reliability Engineering and DevOps practices. Builds automation and tooling to reduce toil, defines and tracks SLIs/SLOs and error budgets, instruments observability pipelines (metrics, logs, traces), leads incident response and postmortems, and provisions infrastructure as code on cloud platforms. Distinct from platform/infrastructure-build focuses (which center on standing up core compute/network/storage) and from pure software development — this focus centers on engineering reliability into already-running services and the operational toolchain that supports them.
