Sr. DevOps Engineer

Team Role & Overview We’re hiring a Sr. DevOps Engineer to take ownership of responsibilities that have historically been shared across engineering. You won’t be “building from zero” - we already have systems in place - but you will bring a high level of ownership over all aspects of your technical practice: smoother deployments, stronger reliability, clearer observability, tighter identity/access controls, and a more repeatable infrastructure foundation. What you’ll do Over your first year, success looks like measurable improvements across: Reducing deployment pain: make releases simpler, safer, and faster through better automation, consistent environments, and strong CI/CD practices. Improving observability and on-call: strengthen monitoring, alert quality, and incident response so on‑call is humane and effective. Formalizing Infrastructure as Code (IaC): drive repeatability and change control for infrastructure and platform configuration. Why? We are quickly scaling to global, multi‑region infrastructure. Cost controls: introduce practical FinOps hygiene (visibility, ownership, guardrails, right‑sizing). Compute environments: own and evolve our platform across AWS and on‑prem compute environments (you’ll have the opportunity to collaborate with our High Performance Compute team). On‑call quality: reduce noisy alerts, define SLOs/SLIs where useful, and strengthen incident response practices (runbooks, postmortems, follow‑ups). Operational workflows: Lead efforts to standardize operational workflows and reduce “institutional knowledge” dependencies across the team. What you’ll need Strong hands‑on DevOps/platform ownership experience, ideally having been the primary owner in a prior role. Deep comfort operating production public cloud systems: debugging, incident response, performance triage, and operational discipline. Practical experience improving CI/CD and deployment reliability. Fluency with cloud infrastructure (AWS strongly preferred) and containerized workloads (Kubernetes experience strongly preferred). Security‑minded approach, especially around identity and access management and SSO/SAML concepts. Ability to work independently with minimal hand‑holding, while collaborating effectively across engineering. Nice‑to‑have Designing/implementing IaC at scale (Terraform/Pulumi/CloudFormation—whatever you’ve used, we care about principles and outcomes). Compliance experience: SOC 2 evidence/control implementation and/or ISO 27001 familiarity. Cost optimization and operational metrics (FinOps, capacity planning). Experience in finance‑related environments or other regulated B2B contexts. Our anticipated US base salary compensation range for this role is $100,000‑180,000 plus stock options and a competitive benefits package, which includes equity, 401(k), paid time off, paid parental leave, and comprehensive health benefits. Actual compensation will vary depending on factors such as work location as well as additional factors such as a candidate’s qualifications, skills, experience, competencies, and relevant education. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your location during the hiring process.
