Job description

We’re partnering with a growing technology company in the financial services space to hire a Lead DevOps / SRE Engineer who will play a key role in building, scaling, and improving its cloud infrastructure.

This is an opportunity for a hands‑on engineer who enjoys solving complex infrastructure challenges, shaping architectural decisions, and building reliable systems in a fast-moving environment. You’ll work closely with senior architects and engineering teams to evolve the infrastructure, improve deployment processes, and support the company’s next phase of growth.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, and enhance scalable cloud infrastructure within AWS.
• Lead Kubernetes infrastructure development as the organization continues expanding its containerized environment.
• Develop and improve deployment pipelines, GitOps workflows, and infrastructure automation.
• Collaborate with software engineers and architects on infrastructure design, system reliability, performance, and maintainability.
• Identify opportunities to improve deployment speed, system resilience, and operational efficiency.
• Evaluate existing infrastructure and recommend improvements to architecture, configuration, and engineering practices.
• Help lead the evolution toward a multi-region AWS architecture, including implementing a warm‑standby disaster recovery environment.
• Contribute to infrastructure‑as‑code practices using Terraform and Terragrunt.
• Troubleshoot complex deployment and infrastructure issues while establishing sound SRE and cloud engineering practices.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong AWS experience: A deep understanding of AWS services, cloud architecture, and building production‑grade infrastructure.
• Strong Kubernetes experience: Hands‑on experience building, configuring, and operating Kubernetes environments.
• Python proficiency: Experience writing scripts and automation to improve infrastructure management and engineering workflows.
• Experience designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines, GitOps workflows, and deployment strategies.
• Hands‑on infrastructure‑as‑code experience, ideally with Terraform and Terragrunt.
• The ability to contribute to system design discussions, evaluate technical trade‑offs, and recommend practical solutions.
• A track record of building and improving infrastructure, rather than exclusively maintaining existing environments.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and the ability to balance rapid delivery with thoughtful engineering decisions.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Argo CD, particularly configuring and troubleshooting deployments.
• Experience designing multi‑region architectures, disaster recovery strategies, or large‑scale cloud migrations.
• A background in SRE, production reliability, security, or regulated technology environments.
• Familiarity with deploying Java/Spring applications in containerized environments.
• Experience working in a high‑growth technology company or a mature fintech environment.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

• Meaningful technical ownership: Help shape infrastructure architecture and engineering standards.
• High‑impact projects: Take a leading role in expanding a production environment toward multi‑region resilience.
• Collaborative engineering culture: Work alongside experienced architects and engineers who value technical expertise and practical problem‑solving.
• Competitive compensation

The preferred arrangement is hybrid, with three days onsite Tuesday through Thursday in McLean, Virginia, or Wilmington, North Carolina. Remote candidates may be considered.

If you’re a hands‑on cloud and infrastructure engineer ready to take ownership of meaningful technical initiatives, we’d welcome the opportunity to connect.
