Bill Lincoln, Wayfair, and Matt Coleman
The SRE discipline necessitates deep understanding of the organisation's business and technical needs, as well as clear objectives across the entire team.
What happens when you begin to distribute your SRE team across a large geological divide?
We'll talk about what went into creating Wayfair's global SRE presence, from initial hire to full contributing team—what worked, what didn't, and what we have planned.
