About the team

Reliability Enablement (AKA Reliability Rangers)

As a member of our Reliability Enablement team at Xero, you’ll help teams deliver a great customer experience through a better understanding of the behaviour and operation of their systems.

There will be a lot of variety to your work as a part of reliability enablement, as you may be embedded within an engineering portfolio, or ‘home’ in our central reliability enablement team. Regardless of your current focus you will be an advocate for reliability and incident learning, as well as an active member of our SRE On Call function, providing specialist incident commander capabilities for complex major and critical incidents.
