SRE's culture of intellectual curiosity, problem solving and openness is key to its success. Our organization brings together people with a wide variety of backgrounds, experiences and perspectives. We encourage them to collaborate, think big and take risks in a blame-free environment. We promote self-direction to work on meaningful projects, while we also strive to create an environment that provides the support and mentorship needed to learn and grow.

We operate Google's SDN enabled campus aggregation and WAN production networks and drive its transformation to achieve industry defining levels of reliability, efficiency and scalability to meet ever-evolving customer needs.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running.
