Interesting. We interviewed a Google SRE and he said that what I described was nothing like the job he was doing. I think one big difference is that at Netflix the SRE doesn't block deployments or roll them back. We leave that up to the teams.

"Neutered SRE", then. ;)

Or, "Reliability Ombudsman".

Hah! More like "respectful of the ability of our coworkers"

I like this one. Might just use it.

I can appreciate "respect". Just don't fire the poor SOB when the service goes down because the people he works with ignored his warnings.
