The NMCI Service Management Integration and Transport (SMIT) group at Leidos has an opening for a Site Reliability Engineer to focus on the reliability, performance, and scalability of complex distributed systems. Under the SMIT Contract, the Leidos team is responsible for the core backbone for the Navy-Marine Corps Intranet, including cybersecurity services, network operations, network engineering, service desk, seat support services, and data transport. The SRE will also develop and execute tests focused on system resilience, performance under load, and failure scenarios. They will work in tandem with other Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) and development teams to create automated testing frameworks that simulate real-world conditions that validate system behavior under normal and stress conditions, ensuring our services are resilient and meet established service level objectives (SLOs) The SRE will support the operations and maintenance of the enterprise network. Your work will contribute to the development of robust and scalable services that operate reliably in production. Your responsibilities will include maintaining the network devices, routing protocols, VLANs, IPS and boundary appliances, and complex computer systems by writing code to automate software releases, monitor systems, and detect and fix problems before users even know there is an issue. You will use these skills to improve site performance and overall reliability. The SRE Engineer role is responsible for supporting, migrating, automation and optimization of network and software development and deployment process, infrastructure as code, and contribute to the overall maturity of the Site Reliability Engineering program. Primary Responsibilities Work alongside the development and operations teams to ensure speedy and reliable software deployments, monitor systems, and improve overall reliability of the platform, create change management tickets, and perform break fix of network appliances. In addition, as you discover and document system bugs, you have the motivation to go off and fix them yourself. Develop features utilize the AI coding tool and repository of scripts to automate, scale, test, and secure the cloud infrastructure and the pipelines. Enhance performance monitoring of the various systems via Splunk or other dashboard reporting tools Identify performance bottlenecks and optimize the performance of cloud infrastructure Contribute to continuing our SRE journey by suggesting ways to improve engineering build, maintenance, automation and reliability across the platform with SRE/DevOps tools and Infrastructure-as-Code. Develop and code high-quality pipeline automation workflows to support inside and outside the cloud platform that are appropriate for business and technology strategies. Develop and execute test strategies that simulate real-world failure scenarios, including network disruptions, hardware failures, and system overloads. Create, script, and run performance tests to measure system behavior under varying levels of load and traffic. Identify bottlenecks, performance degradation, and areas for optimization. Design, implement, and maintain automated test suites for infrastructure and application components. Ensure that testing is integrated into the CI/CD pipeline to validate system reliability with every release. Build automated systems for continuous performance testing, stress testing, and load testing. Work closely with SREs, developers, and operations teams to define reliability goals and develop appropriate testing strategies to validate those goals. Ensure that new services and features undergo thorough testing for performance, reliability, and failure recovery before deployment to production. Validate that monitoring, logging, and alerting mechanisms are functioning correctly by testing systems under failure conditions. Ensure that Service Level Indicators (SLIs) and Service Level Objectives (SLOs) are accurately measured and tracked through automated testing frameworks.
