My name is Rajat, and I am a SRE (Site Reliability Engineer) and an Educator. I have been working in these roles for the past 3 years, and I find both to be challenging and rewarding in different ways. As a SRE, I am responsible for ensuring the reliability, scalability, and availability of my company’s software systems. This involves monitoring the systems, identifying and resolving issues, and developing new tools and processes to improve their performance. As an educator, I have been teaching computer science courses and helping students develop their skills and knowledge in this field. I believe that my experience as a SRE has given me valuable insights into the importance of reliability and scalability in software systems, which I have been able to share with my students. I am passionate about both of these roles, and I believe that they complement each other well, allowing me to make a positive impact in both my company and the wider community.
