Senior Infrastructure​/DevOps Engineer, Fintech

Who You Are:

• Seniority: Minimum of 5 years dedicated experience in Dev Ops, Infrastructure, or SRE roles.
  Expert tooling: expert with Docker, Kubernetes (k8s), and Terraform/Pulumi.
• Cloud proficiency: Deep, proven expertise in either AWS or GCP infrastructure, with the ability to quickly grasp and transition to other cloud providers.
• Development skills: Strong ability to write clean, maintainable code for automation in Go, Python, or Node.js.
• Security focus: Demonstrable experience implementing and maintaining modern cloud security controls and meeting key compliance standards (SOC 2, PIPEDA, HIPAA, and/or GDPR).
• Independent, proactive, and cross-functional: Proven ability to quickly onboard, diagnose problems, and propose and implement solutions with minimal oversight. Experienced in a consultant or freelancer capacity, with the ability to understand and communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Quickly implement and adapt infrastructure using Terraform, Pulumi, or other major IaC tools.
• Containers: Docker is critical. Deeply understand how to design, build, and optimize secure, multi-stage Dockerfiles.
• CI/CD: Design, build, and manage robust CI/CD pipelines to automate testing, building, and deployment across environments.
• Core cloud services (AWS or GCP): Provision and manage foundational services. Deep expertise in one major provider is required, transferable to the other.
• Container compute: Expertise in at least one major container platform: EKS, GKE, ECS, Fargate, or Cloud Run. (Kubernetes is highly valued, particularly EKS or GKE.)
• Networking: Know when to use load balancers, VPNs for secure connectivity, and private VPCs for isolation. Apply subnetting, routing, VPC peering, and NAT gateways to build secure systems.
• Storage: S3 (AWS) or Cloud Storage (GCP).
• Databases: RDS (AWS) or CloudSQL (GCP).
• Serverless: Deploy event-driven components using AWS Lambda, GCP Cloud Functions, or equivalents.
• CDNs and message queues.
• Security: Protect PII; apply encryption, secrets management, network firewalls, and web application firewalls (AWS WAF, GCP Cloud Armor) following security best practices.
• Automation and scripting: Write high-quality automation and tooling in Go, Python, Node.js, or Bash for client-specific operational challenges.
• Monitoring and operations: Ensure robust monitoring and high system uptime.

• Production AI/agent experience: Hands‑on experience running LLM or agent systems in production, including how they fail differently from deterministic services: nondeterministic outputs that break conventional testing and alerting, runaway token and inference cost, and partial failures on multi‑step chains.
• AI observability and cost control: Tracing multi‑step agent runs, treating token cost, latency, and output quality as first‑class metrics, and keeping inference spend in check with budgets, rate limiting, and caching.
• The infrastructure AI systems run on: Model gateways and provider routing with failover, durable execution for long‑running multi‑step workflows, eval and regression pipelines for prompt or model changes, and the retrieval, vector‑store, and context plumbing these systems depend on, including MCP. Vector databases and GPU/TPU compute where relevant.
• Domain experience in fintech or crypto/web3 environments.
• Crypto/web3 infrastructure: running nodes, indexing solutions, or RPC infrastructure.
• Payment processing, ledger architecture, or financial transaction systems, and meeting compliance requirements in regulated environments.
• High‑volume, mission‑critical systems: real‑time data flows, websocket feeds, payment rails, or distributed architectures handling millions of transactions.
• Certifications: AWS or GCP cloud certifications are a plus, not mandatory.
• Advanced monitoring (Prometheus, Datadog) or logging experience.

• Work From Anywhere:
  Choose your workspace — all you need is strong wifi and a passion for building.
• Work / Life Balance:
  We believe in our team’s ability to have it all; a great career, and time to unplug and live.
• Employee Care:
  We provide full benefits (healthcare, dental, vision) for our employees (401k for our US employees).
• Unlimited PTO:
  Everyone needs a break. Take at least 15 days off a year, and more if you need — just be cool about it and keep the team in mind.
• Regular Team Retreat:
  Join us for a week of team bonding at amazing destinations. Recent trips include the Dominican Republic, Cancun, and Hawaii — plus ones welcome.
