• Instrument systems with metrics, logs and traces, using telemetry to drive reliability improvements.
• Collaborate with Security and GRC on SOC 2 / ISO 27001 requirements: secure deployments, secrets management, IAM, encryption at rest and in transit.

Описание:

We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join our engineering team in London. You will own and improve the cloud infrastructure, CI/CD and observability that our clearing platform runs on, working directly with backend engineers and Security. As volumes grow and regulatory expectations rise, you will make production safer, more observable and easier to recover, and you will be trusted to form opinions and act on them.

• Run production services: on-call, incident response, post-mortems and capacity planning, with a focus on resilience and failover
• Instrument our systems with metrics, logs and traces, and use that telemetry to drive reliability improvements
• Work with Security and GRC on SOC 2 / ISO 27001 requirements: secure deployments, secrets management, IAM, and encryption at rest and in transit
