Site Reliability Engineer

Site Reliability Engineer (SRE)

We are seeking an experienced Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) with a strong focus on Dev Sec Ops  to join our growing engineering team. In this role, you will oversee and maintain the reliability, security posture, and operational hygiene of our cloud infrastructure, APIs, and software supply chain. You will drive patch management programs, harden our cloud infrastructure, and maintain our code repositories to ensure all systems remain compliant, secure, and scalable.

• Own and execute end-to-end patch management across AWS compute resources (EC2, ECS, Lambda runtimes, EKS nodes), third-party dependencies, and OS-level packages.
• Monitor, triage, and remediate vulnerabilities identified by security scanning tools (e.g., AWS Inspector, Dependabot, Security Hub, or equivalent), prioritizing by CVSS severity and business impact.
• Maintain and enforce branch protection rules, secret scanning policies, and dependency update workflows across all code repositories.
• Design and implement automated pipelines for continuous compliance checking, security testing (SAST/DAST/SCA), and infrastructure drift detection.
• Collaborate with IT & Info-Sec SMEs on AWS IAM roles and policies, VPC configurations, Security Groups, Cloud Trail, Config, and Guard Duty to ensure least‑privilege access and auditability.
• Collaborate with development teams to embed security controls into CI/CD pipelines (Git Hub Actions, Code Pipeline, or equivalent) without impeding developer velocity.
• Support the reliability and availability of production APIs – including uptime monitoring, incident response, runbook creation, and post‑incident reviews.
• Partner with Legal and Data Governance SMEs on API access procedures and monitoring.
• Define and track SLOs/SLAs for internal and external APIs; implement alerting and dashboards using observability tooling (e.g., Cloud Watch, Datadog, Grafana).
• Lead periodic infrastructure and dependency audits; produce clear reports on patch compliance status and open risk items for engineering and security leadership.
• Maintain thorough documentation of patching schedules, runbooks, access policies, and environment configurations.
• Participate in on‑call rotation and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.

• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• 5+ years of professional experience in a Site Reliability Engineering, Software Engineering, Dev Ops, or Dev Sec Ops  role.
• Demonstrated expertise managing AWS environments – including EC2, Lambda, ECS/EKS, S3, RDS, IAM, VPC, Cloud Trail, Config, and Guard Duty.
• Experience with various cloud environments: AWS, Azure, GCP.
• Strong experience with Git Hub administration: branch protection, Actions workflows, secret scanning, Dependabot, and code owners.
• Hands‑on experience with patch management and vulnerability remediation at scale, including OS‑level patching (Amazon Linux, Ubuntu) and dependency lifecycle management.
• Proficiency with infrastructure‑as‑code tools (Terraform, Cloud Formation, or AWS CDK).
• Experience integrating security tooling (SAST, DAST, SCA, container scanning) into CI/CD pipelines.
• Solid understanding of API reliability patterns: health checks, rate limiting, circuit breakers, and observability.
• Familiarity with compliance frameworks relevant to cloud environments (SOC 2, CIS Benchmarks, NIST CSF).
• Strong scripting skills in Python, Bash, or similar for automation and tooling.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to translate technical risk for non‑technical stakeholders.
• Build observation (logging, metrics, alerting) systems to ensure system reliability and develop response plans.

• AWS certifications (e.g., AWS Certified Security – Specialty, AWS Certified Dev Ops Engineer – Professional).
• Experience with container security and Kubernetes (EKS) hardening.
• Familiarity with CSPM tools (e.g., Wiz, Prisma Cloud, AWS Security Hub) for continuous cloud posture management.
• Experience managing API gateways (AWS API Gateway, Kong, or similar) including security policy enforcement.
• Exposure to…
