Senior Manager, Site Reliability Engineering

About the role

Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) at Tubi is not a traditional operations team. We are a software engineering organization that applies a developer's mindset and toolkit to the challenges of building and running large-scale, distributed systems. Our mission is to engineer resilience from the ground up, enabling our product teams to innovate rapidly while ensuring our users have a stellar experience. We own the availability, latency, performance, and capacity of our platform, and we achieve our goals through a culture of data-driven decision-making, blameless learning, and relentless automation. We are seeking an experienced and visionary Senior SRE Manager to lead and grow our newly built Site Reliability Engineering team. You are more than a people manager or a tech lead; you are the strategic leader responsible for architecting our reliability roadmap. You will build and mentor a team of talented engineers, foster a culture of blameless learning and continuous improvement, and champion the engineering practices that allow us to balance rapid innovation with rock-solid stability. You will be a key influencer in our engineering leadership, partnering with peers across the organization to ensure reliability is a shared responsibility and a core tenet of our engineering culture.

Responsibilities

• Team Leadership & Mentorship:

• Operational Excellence & Incident Management:
• Streamline and improve our existing processes and practices, and collaborate with other teams to enhance our production release standards by improving current processes.
• Define and tune a 24×7 on-call rotation for low noise and fast response; act as executive escalation partner during major incidents.
• Own disaster-recovery strategy (playbooks, failover drills, recovery simulations) and track SLO gaps with time-bound remediations.
• Financial & Vendor Management: Own the SRE budget, tooling, and headcount. Manage relationships with key third-party vendors for our observability and SRE related AI platforms, work with infra lead and finance team for contract negotiations and ensure we derive maximum value from our investments.
• Building the Business Case: Building the techno-eco
