Full Job Posting

Location:

  • 555 Patroon Creek Boulevard, Albany New York

Key Responsibilities

  • Automation & Engineering
  • Design and code automation that reduces operational toil and replaces manual, error-prone runbooks with orchestrated, auditable failover and recovery workflows.
  • Develop and maintain infrastructure-as-code, scripts, and pipelines (e.g., Python, Bash, PowerShell, Terraform, Ansible) to provision, configure, and validate recovery environments.
  • Build self-healing patterns, health checks, and automated validation that confirm recoverability before a disaster is ever declared.
  • Reliability & Resiliency Design
  • Partner with application and infrastructure teams to assess system architecture for reliability, redundancy, and recoverability against assigned system criticality.
  • Define, measure, and support Service Level Indicators (SLIs), Service Level Objectives (SLOs), and error budgets for critical services.
  • Ensure architecture is selected to meet Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO) targets.
  • Testing, Chaos & Validation
  • Plan and execute disaster recovery tests and targeted fault-injection / chaos experiments (e.g., zonal failure, load-balancer, regional failover) to proactively expose weaknesses.
  • Improve monitoring, alerting, and observability to detect service degradation early.
  • Facilitation & Partnership
  • Facilitate resiliency and architecture reviews, tabletop exercises, and cross-team recovery walkthroughs, aligning technical and business stakeholders toward clear outcomes.
  • Provide subject-matter expertise on reliability engineering practices and drive adoption across technology teams.
  • Produce clear, examiner-ready documentation and evidence, ensuring work aligns with KeyBank policies, standards, and regulatory requirements.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or related field—or equivalent work experience.
  • Demonstrated experience in reliability engineering, DevOps, infrastructure, or technology operations.
  • Hands-on coding and automation ability (e.g., Python, Bash, PowerShell) and experience with infrastructure-as-code (e.g., Terraform, Ansible).
  • Working knowledge of BOTH on-premises infrastructure (compute, storage, network, virtualization, databases) AND public cloud platforms (GCP and/or Azure).
  • Understanding of high-availability design: redundancy, replication, failover, and load balancing.
  • Strong facilitation, analytical, problem-solving, and written/verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence across teams.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with site reliability engineering principles and service-level management (SLIs, SLOs, error budgets).
  • Experience with disaster recovery planning, resiliency testing, or chaos / fault-injection engineering (e.g., Google FIT, Gremlin).
  • Familiarity with containers and orchestration (Kubernetes/GKE), CI/CD, and observability tooling (e.g., Dynatrace, Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk).
  • Experience with ServiceNow (ITOM / Business Continuity Management) or comparable orchestration platforms.
  • Experience in a regulated industry or large, complex enterprise environment; familiarity with FFIEC, NIST SP 800-34/CSF, or ISO 22301.
  • Relevant certifications (e.g., cloud architect/engineer, Kubernetes, Linux, ITIL).
  • COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS
  • This position is eligible to earn a base salary in the range of $63,000.00 - $96,000.00 annually. Placement within the pay range may differ based upon various factors, including but not limited to skills, experience and geographic location.
