This function at Linkedin falls in the purview of the Site Reliability Engineering team and Site Reliability Engineers ( SRE ) who are Software Engineers who specialize in reliability. SREs apply the principles of computer science and engineering to the design and development of computer systems: generally, large distributed ones. As we continued on this journey we started getting a lot of questions from these campuses on what exactly site engineering roll entails? and, how could someone learn the skills and the disciplines involved to become a successful site engineer? Fast forward a few months, and a few of these campus students had joined LinkedIn either as Interns or as full time engineers to become a part of the Site Engineering team, we also had a few lateral hires who joined our organization who were not from a traditional SRE background. That's when a few of us got together and started to think about how we can on board new new graduate engineers to the site engineering team.
