Our client is looking for a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to enhance the reliability, performance, and efficiency of mission‑critical batch workloads across Capital Markets Technology.

Deep knowledge of Dynatrace for observability (dashboards, KPIs, tagging, alerts, anomaly detection).

Hands‑on experience with Apache Airflow (DAG design, scheduler tuning, SLA management).

Solid understanding of distributed systems concepts — retries, idempotency, backpressure, data integrity.

Familiarity with containers and orchestration tools (Docker, Kubernetes).

Excellent incident management, troubleshooting, and communication skills.

Systems Engineering: Configure and tune Linux and Windows environments for optimal reliability and speed.

Automation & Orchestration: Design and refine Airflow DAGs, automate deployments with CI/CD pipelines, and reduce operational toil through code.
