Construction of reliability engineering system

Establish a company-wide SLO/SLA system: Define quantifiable reliability indicators (availability, latency, error rate) for each Line of Business, and drive change rhythm and investment decisions based on Error Budget

Construct MTTD/MTTR measurement system, set grading goals and continuously optimize: P-1 target MTTD

Building fault self-healing capabilities: automated fault detection → diagnosis → recovery link, reducing reliance on manual intervention

Promote chaos engineering practice: regularly conduct fault drills (Chaos Engineering) and actively discover weak links in the system

Establish a change risk control system: canary release standardization, change impact pre-assessment, automatic rollback mechanism

Cost Governance System (Key Points)

Building a Data-driven cost governance closed loop: from cost visualization → attribution analysis → optimization decision → execution verification → continuous monitoring of whole-link automation

Establish a scientific capacity planning model: based on the correlation model between business indicators (QPS/TPS/number of users) and resource consumption, instead of impulsive N-fold reservation

Promote the implementation of FinOps culture.

Line of Business/Application Cost Billing and Showback

Define cost efficiency metrics ($/transaction, $/user, $/QPS) and conduct industry benchmarking

Embed cost assessment into the resource request process to achieve 100% capacity assessment of new resources

Automated cost optimization engine:

Low-load automatic recognition and scaled-down recommendation (AI-based anomaly detection and prediction model)

Reserved Instance/Savings Plan Automated Purchase Decision System

Optimization of elastic volume expansion and contraction strategies: pre-scaling based on predictive models to reduce over-reservation

Automatic recycling and lifecycle management of idle resources

Goal: Annual cloud cost optimization of 15-20% without affecting business SLO.

III. Automated operation and maintenance (key)

Toil elimination system: measure team toil ratio (target

GitOps/IaC fully implemented:

Environmental consistency guarantee: Ensure drift detection and automatic repair of dev/staging/prod configuration through IaC

Intelligent Operations and Maintenance (AIOps) Construction:

AI-based alarm aggregation, root cause analysis, and repair suggestions

Automatic detection of log/metric anomalies, moving from passive alarms to active discovery

Knowledge Base AI: natural language query operation status, execution standard operation

Self-service platform construction:

Business teams can complete more than 80% of routine operation and maintenance operations (volume expansion and contraction, configuration change, permission application) by themselves.

Operation and maintenance ticket automation processing rate target > 60%

On-call system optimization:

Alarm accuracy > 95% (eliminating alarm fatigue)

Establish Runbook automated execution capability

On-call quality measurement and continuous improvement

Financial cloud isolation and multi-compliance station deployment (key)

Financial-grade network isolation architecture design and operation and maintenance:

Design and implementation of network isolation strategies for multiple accounts, multiple VPCs, and multiple regions

Zero Trust Network architecture landing: micro-segmentation, minimum privilege, dynamic access control

Compliance station efficient building website ability:

Goal: Deployment of new compliance station infrastructure from weekly to hourly (fully automated)

Standardized Compliance Station Templates: One-click Delivery of Network Topology, Security Policy, Middleware, and Monitoring

Automated inter-site isolation verification: Regular automated scans ensure no cross-site data leakage

Cloudy and multi-regional operation and maintenance:

AWS/Tencent Cloud/Huawei Cloud unified operation and maintenance abstraction layer, shielding underlying differences

Cross-regional disaster recovery architecture design: RPO/RTO definition and walkthrough verification

Data Sovereignty Guarantee for Independent Deployment of Compliance Station (Data Residency, Encryption, Audit)

Financial-grade guarantee for wallet/transaction core chain.

Operation and maintenance guarantee of cold and hot wallet isolation architecture

Transaction link zero downtime change capability

Multiactive/disaster recovery switching SOP and periodic drills

Team Building and Talent Cultivation

Push the team to transform from "traditional operation and maintenance" to "Site Reliability Engineering": solve operation and maintenance problems with engineering methods

Establishing an SRE competency model and growth path: what abilities should be possessed at each level from P5 to P7 and how to measure them

Establish knowledge sedimentation and sharing mechanisms: Runbook, Post-mortem culture, internal Tech Talk

Eliminate single-point personnel risk: at least 2 people can handle each core system independently

Echelon Construction: Cultivate 2-3 senior SREs who can independently be responsible for Line of Business reliability

Possessing practical experience in chaos engineering (Chaos Monkey/Litmus/self-developed)

Participated in infrastructure preparation work for compliance audits such as SOC2/ISO27001/PCI-DSS

The leadership traits we value

Engineering thinking: When facing operation and maintenance problems, the first reaction is "how to avoid such problems in the system" rather than "be careful next time". Data drive: All decisions are based on metrics - not accepting "feels okay", not accepting "has always been like this". - Cost awareness internalized: not passively doing cost optimization projects, but integrating cost efficiency into daily architectural decisions - Scale thinking: When designing the plan, consider "If the number of compliance stations increases from 10 to 30, can this plan still work?"
