Attending this year’s LISA Conference? We’ll see you there!
December 5, 2012
While it’s never a bad idea to spend December in San Diego, California, this December is going to be even better. That’s because San Diego is this year’s host to the Large Installation System Administration Conference, or
LISA Conference
. The LISA Conference is an important annual meeting of members of industry and academia to discuss advances in building, deploying, and managing large-scale systems — and this year, Google engineers and members of our University and Industry Programs teams will be there.
Not only will we be on hand to chat with students during the exhibition, we’ll also be hosting a coffee cart during the poster show (we love caffeine!). Both the exhibition and the poster show are open to all with free registration, so whether you are attending the conference or just lucky enough to find yourself in San Diego, please come visit us (dates, times, and details are below). If you do, you’ll get a chance to meet some of our Site Reliability Engineers, or SREs. SREs, once referred to as the ‘
world’s most intense pit crew
’, are the software engineers responsible for ensuring that all of Google’s services are fast and reliable for billions of users. It’s an elite team that combines software development, networking, and systems engineering expertise to build and run large scale, massively distributed, fault-tolerant software systems and infrastructure. The LISA conference is a great place for SREs to collaborate, learn, network — we hope you’ll join us!
Not able to join us for the LISA Conference?
Not to worry, we’ll post a recap of the conference here on the student blog.
Interested in SRE roles at Google?
We’re looking for SRE interns and new grads (those graduating before August 2013) to take on some big projects. To apply, submit your resume and transcript for either our software engineering
internship
or
new grad
role and when one of our recruiters reaches out to you, just indicate that you’re interested in Site Reliability.
