Summary
Murali Suriar is a Staff Engineer with 16 years of experience designing and operating large-scale networking, storage and distributed systems across Google, Snowflake and Reddit. He specializes in SRE and infrastructure reliability, having led SRE efforts for foundational services like Chubby, cluster filesystems and software-defined networking that underpin globally distributed platforms. Murali is skilled at driving systemic improvements that span multiple technology domains and organizations, blending hands-on engineering with cross-team technical leadership. Based in Dublin with a background from University of Warwick, he has a track record of moving low-level infrastructure (networking and storage) into robust, highly available production services. Less obvious: he combines deep operational on-call experience from early-career network surveillance roles with later tech-lead responsibilities, giving him both incident instincts and long-term architectural perspective.
