    Default job background
    Description

    The IT & Technical Services department's Operations team is seeking a Senior Site Reliability Engineer to support the growing portfolio of services it provides to EMBl-EBIs service and research teams.

    The Operations team is responsible for maintaining and developing the InstitutesTransfer Services, the application and monitoring systems for our software defined object storage, the authentication and authorisation infrastructure (which is federated with ), as well as a number of services we have recently assumed management of, which include email (postifx, cyrus, roundcube, mailman) and the Request Tracker ticketing system.

    Due to the varied nature of this role, it may suit an individual with experience in a hands-on systems management role, a Senior Infrastructure Engineer, or someone from a site reliability engineering background.

    The Operations team leverages on other teams in the IT & Technical Services at EMBL-EBI; an IT department of around 80 multi-cultural, multi-disciplinary staff, at different levels of their IT career.

    We are eager to welcome new talent who will join us in ensuring reliability and supporting EMBL-EBI's mission to advance scientific discovery.

    After some months the new joiner is expected to help maintain and evolve the distributed Check_mk monitoring system.

    By the end of the first year the new member will be fluent with the orchestration infrastructure other teams use to deploy and update more than 3000 servers (including gerrit, foreman, rpm repositories, and other puppet supporting systems).

    The team is actively upgrading the Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructure for identity management of one thousand internal accounts and up to 30 thousand virtual accounts; it is hoped the new joiner will play an active role in this project also.

    Last but not least, the role will include providing documentation and Standard Operation Procedures to enable our Service Desk team to support as much as possible of the above, so tickets dont rise to our team and user service experience is as smooth as possible.

    We are looking for a senior technical linux-focused self-starter who can take robust responsibility for tasks, someone who thrives in an environment that values initiative and individual ownership.

    All team members actively contribute to sprint planning and reporting, and the scrum roles rotate across the team on a voluntary basis.

    The Senior Site Reliability Engineer position will contribute to helping us move towards more automation of the production environment, while helping guide other members of the team and assisting with day-to-day work prioritisation.

    At least 5 years hands-on experience with linux production systems (if this experience is with on-premise hardware that would be even better).

    Experience with 389 directory server or openldap.
    Experience reviewing Python or Go code created by other team members.
    A desire to contribute to scientific research from an IT perspective.
    Benefits and Contract Information

    Financial incentives:
    depending on circumstances, monthly family/marriage allowance of £260, monthly child allowance of £314 per child. Non resident allowance up to £532 per month. Annual salary review, pension scheme, death benefit, long-term care, accident-at-work and unemployment insurances
    Hybrid working arrangements
    Private medical insurance for you and your immediate family (including all prescriptions and generous dental & optical cover)
    Generous time off: 30 days annual leave per year, in addition to eight bank holidays
    Relocation package including installation grant (as applicable)
    Free shuttle bus to and from work, on-site library, subsidised on-site gym and cafeteria, casual dress code, extensive sports and social club activities (on campus and remotely)
    On-site nursery, child sick leave, generous parental leave, holiday clubs on campus and monthly family and child allowances

    Contract duration:
    This position is a 3 year contract renewable to 9 years
    We recruit internationally and successful candidates are offered visa exemptions


    Diversity and inclusion:

    At EMBL-EBI, we strongly believe that inclusive and diverse teams benefit from higher levels of innovation and creative thought.

    We encourage applications from women, LGBTQ+ and individuals from all nationalities.

    You will be required to relocate if you are based overseas and you will receive a generous relocation package to support you.
