Ben Brandon

Senior site reliability engineer

I used to build the product. I now look after the systems underneath it: automated, observed, and ready when something fails.

Now

Senior SRE work centred on automation and observability. The repetitive paths get removed. The signals that explain a system stay close to the people who run it.

Before

Full-stack web development. Interfaces, APIs, and the data behind them. That is still the lens: reliability work should stay near how the software is actually built.

Where

Based in the East Midlands. Happy to talk about reliability, automation, and the stretch between shipping a change and knowing it is still healthy.

What the work looks like

  1. Automation

    Turn the steps people repeat into something a system can do, check, and hand back with a clear result.

  2. Observability

    Metrics, logs, and traces that answer what changed, who it affects, and whether the service is actually well.

  3. Reliability

    Failure treated as part of the design: limits, recovery, and a path back to normal that does not depend on heroics.
