SALARY
$210 K - $230 K
About the role
- 5+ years in DevOps / SRE / platform engineering roles; experience as an early or solo infra hire strongly preferred
- Hands-on: you write real code to build tooling and automation, not just configuration
- Deep fluency with a major cloud provider (AWS) and infrastructure-as-code in production
- You've built CI/CD pipelines other engineers loved, not just tolerated
- Strong opinions on observability.
- You've instrumented systems, defined SLOs, and run incident processes
- Comfortable operating in a regulated or compliance-heavy environment, or eager to learn what that demands (SOC 2, ISO 27001)
- You default to automation and mechanisms over manual process, and you document what you build
- Pragmatic: you can tell the difference between what a 50-person company needs now and what a 400-person company needs later
- Fintech, banking, or other regulated-industry experience
- Experience with multi-tenant SaaS architecture
- Database operations experience (backups, migrations, performance)
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
