The Augmented SRE Leader: Steering Human-Machine Synergy in the Age of AIOps

Oscar Manzano
Roche Diagnostics
Abstract

SRE leaders must move beyond automation to lead augmented teams. They must leverage human-AI collaboration and champion explainable AI along with upskilling teams to master this new symbiosis, ensuring AI becomes a reliable partner. The future is human-machine collaboration.

Bio

As People Lead in the Infrastructure Reliability Engineering chapter at Roche, I empower my team to deliver key capabilities for innovative digital health solutions. My leadership philosophy centers on mentorship and fostering professional growth.

Beyond people leadership, I have extensive experience in optimizing engineering operations. DevOps is a mindset that I still use and practice. In my previous software engineer experience I developed impactful applications, from mobile apps to assist visually impaired individuals with indoor navigation, decision-support tools for reducing global data center energy consumption, or a full platform designed to accelerate recovery for knee-injured patients.

Along the years in the academia, I authored scientific articles and worked as a software engineer at University College Cork, Ireland, on research projects related to Supply Chain Optimization, Energy Efficiency, Cloud Computing, and e-Health, designing solutions for complex challenges. Finally, I created and directed a Master's program in DevOps, bridging the gap between academia and industry at University of Barcelona, Spain.
