On-Call Responsibility
This position involves on-call responsibilities, typically for one week every month, for high-severity events related to critical components of our services and systems. We do not like getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant. When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause so that we do not get paged for the same issue twice.
