At TTEC Digital, we coach clients to ensure their employees feel valued, and fully supported, because an amazing customer experience is an employee first process. Our vision is the same, a place where employees know they can thrive.
The role:
- Own production reliability for a real-time platform where uptime and latency ARE the product — voice, desktop, intelligence, and AI combined; an agent mid-call can't wait for a retry.
- First SRE hired immediately (Day 0–14) for production scaling and SLO ownership; a second joins at the start of Phase 3 for 24/7 coverage.
- Pairs with C1 Platform Foundation on observability and tenancy isolation.
- Startup environment: weekly deploys, 1-week sprints, fail fast, move forward — reliability engineering at that speed, not against it.
What you'll own:
- SLOs and error budgets per tenant/service
- Incident response and blameless postmortems
- Production scaling and capacity
- Observability depth (p50/p95/p99 per event hop)
- Uptime as a personal mission
- On-call rotation with DevOps
- Your committed timelines.
Who you are:
- Self-starter, grit, show-me mentality — you prove reliability with dashboards and drills, not assertions.
- A ways-to-YES engineer: weekly deploys are the heartbeat and your job is making them safe, never slowing them.
- You love new technology, adapt fast when the stack changes under you, use AI tools daily to multiply velocity, and consider yourself exceptional.
- Calm in an incident, relentless after it.
- Team player who likes winning.
- 8+ years operating production systems at scale; owns SLOs, error budgets, incident command.
- Strong Go or Python — you automate reliability, you don't toil at it. Everything you build is code: runbooks execute, remediation is automatic, toil trends to zero.
- Deep on event-driven and real-time systems reliability — NATS-class buses, WebSocket fleets, streaming pipelines — and the failure physics underneath: state, race conditions, locking, ordering, back-pressure, cascading load. You've debugged these in production.
- Strong monitoring and uptime mindset — metrics, logs, traces wired to alerting that catches it before the customer does; you know the difference between a noisy alert and a real signal.
- Good networking understanding — protocols and how they work (TCP/UDP, TLS, WebSocket, DNS, load balancing); RTP/SIP a strong plus for our media paths.
