About the Role

Veeam is expanding its global Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) organization to support the Veeam Data Cloud. As an SRE Manager, you will report to our Global Director of SRE and will build and lead a high-performing team that partners with product, platform, and security engineering to make our systems reliable, scalable, and observable from the ground up. You’ll collaborate with peer engineering leaders to embed reliability into service roadmaps, and you’ll represent your team in global SRE planning and delivery of cross-cutting reliability initiatives across all VDC services.

You’ll drive adoption of SRE principles (SLIs/SLOs/error budgets, toil reduction, blameless learning) and operate a healthy, daytime follow-the-sun on-call model in partnership with our other regions. You will lead your team to make code contributions leading to improvements in the overall operability, reliability, resilience, and security of the codebase(s) we support.

What You’ll Do

People & Team Leadership

Hire, onboard, and grow your SRE team; coach career development and performance.
Foster a psychologically safe, blameless culture that favors learning over blame and emphasizes engineering over firefighting.
Ensure a sustainable operational coverage; monitor on-call health and workload.
Track and cap toil so engineers spend the majority of time on project work that reduces future toil.

Reliability Strategy & Governance

Establish and operationalize SLIs/SLOs and error budgets with service owners; run reliability reviews and hold teams accountable to outcomes.
Define reliability standards, runbooks, readiness checklists, and alerting patterns (including SLO-based alerting).
Partner with product/EMs to align reliability work with service goals and customer experience, not as a gate but as an enabler

Operations & Incident Excellence

Ensure incident response readiness; lead/coordinate major incidents; drive fast, high-quality postmortems and systemic fixes.
Measure MTTR, change failure rate, SLO posture, and repeat-incident reduction; publish learning broadly.
Engineering & Automation
Lead software-first reliability investments: observability, deployment safety (canary/blue-green), resilience testing/chaos, and self-service guardrails.
Drive platform improvements (IaC, CI/CD, Kubernetes) and internal tools that scale operations and improve developer experience.

What You’ll Bring

Required

7+ years in Software, Platform, and/or Reliability Engineering with 2+ years managing engineers.
Demonstrable experience leading engineering teams to predictably deliver outcomes
Experience leading cross-functional initiatives collaboratively with peers through influence.
Experience with public cloud (Azure preferred), Kubernetes, IaC (Terraform, Pulumi), CI/CD (Github Actions, ArgoCD, Azure DevOps), and observability (OpenTelemetry, Elastic, Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana).
Coding background with experience improving service reliability.
Hands-on incident management and postmortem practice; excellent cross-geo communication.
Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation (typically during daytime hours, including weekends/holidays)

Preferred

Demonstrated success leading SLO/error-budget adoption and reliability programs for cloud services.
Experience operating a multi-region, follow-the-sun on-call model.
Background in chaos/resilience/performance testing and release validation.
Track record building or scaling SRE teams and influencing org-wide standards.
Familiarity with compliance frameworks common to SaaS.

What You’ll Get

18 paid vacation days, plus 3 global VeeaMe Days for self-care and 24 volunteer hours annually
Private medical coverage for you and up to four dependents
Life, accident, and disability insurance with enhanced coverage
Wellbeing allowance for physical and mental wellness
Free confidential counselling and coaching via Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
Meal, fuel, and transportation benefits based on work arrangement
Daycare reimbursement and safe cab facility for eligible employees
Professional training and education, including courses and workshops, internal meetups, and unlimited access to our online learning platforms (LinkedIn Learning, Athena, O’Reilly) and mentoring through our MentorLab program
