As a entry level Reliability Engineer, my primary craft focus is on learning the fundamentals of sustainably operating services and systems with a focus on reliability, efficiency, automation, and debugging coupled with gaining familiarity with the technologies in my area of work, and learning to work against plans and schedules.
Systems Fluency
- I understand the basics of OS or networks, or hardware and can quickly debug basic system issues.
- I am learning to understand a typical full stack application (client/load-balancer/frontend/backend/DB) and use the right tools to troubleshoot system issues.
- I automate simple tasks to reduce the toil in operating systems efficiently.
- I identify and suggest improvements to system utilization.
Code Fluency
- I translate ideas into clear code, written to be read as well as executed.
- My code is free of glaring errors - bugs are in edge cases or design, not mainline paths - and is well documented and well tested with appropriate use of manual vs automated tests.
- I’m capable of reading and navigating functions and classes/modules that I didn’t write.
