Job description

Overview

Advisor360° builds technology that transforms how wealth management firms operate, scale, and serve their clients. As a leading SaaS platform in fintech, we power the full advisor and client experience—from portfolio construction and reporting to compliance and client engagement. This role is hybrid, requiring three days per week onsite in our Needham, MA headquarters.

At Advisor360°, our Agentic AI team is building the platform layer that makes AI systems production-ready. This isn’t a greenfield initiative; it’s a high-impact environment where real systems are running at scale today. We’re looking for teammates who can roll up their sleeves, think big, and help elevate our brand in a way that reflects our bold ambitions for the company and clients we serve.

What You’ll Do

• Cluster operations on AKS: node pool sizing, autoscaling policies, namespace isolation, network policies, and day-two operational hygiene across environments.
• GitOps delivery pipeline using ArgoCD: app-of-apps structure, environment promotion, rollback strategy, and guardrails to prevent one team\'s bad deploy from cascading.
• Deployment strategies: blue-green, canary, and rolling release patterns for agentic services where a bad rollout has downstream effects on active workflows.
• Security posture: RBAC, Azure AD Workload Identity, network policies, secrets management via Key Vault, and policy-as-code enforcement with OPA/Gatekeeper.
• Platform reliability: SLIs, SLOs, alerting, and runbooks for the infra layer. When something breaks at 2am, you write the playbook.
• Developer experience: reduce toil so engineers spend time building skills, not waiting on infra tickets.
• Cost and capacity management: instrument and enforce budgets, quotas, and rightsizing across the cluster, including consideration of non-linear costs from LLM workloads.

What You Bring To The Table

• 5+ years operating Kubernetes in production.
• Hands-on GitOps experience with ArgoCD: multi-environment setups, ApplicationSets, sync waves, health checks, and rollback under pressure.
• Azure fluency: AKS, ACR, Azure Monitor, Key Vault, managed identity, workload identity, networking.
• Infrastructure-as-code as a default: Terraform for everything.
• Scripting in Python, Go, or Bash for automation and tooling — not one-offs, maintained code.
• Strong incident response instincts: on-call experience, postmortems, and fixing the underlying conditions rather than just the symptom.
• Experience running LLM inference infrastructure or API gateway patterns for AI workloads.
• Familiarity with agentic AI frameworks (LangGraph, AutoGen, or similar) and the infrastructure patterns they require.
• OPA/Gatekeeper or other policy-as-code tooling for cluster governance at scale.
• OpenTelemetry and distributed tracing across service meshes.
• Service mesh experience (Istio or Linkerd) for service-to-service auth and traffic management.
• CKA or CKS certification.
• Prior work on multi-tenant platforms where teams are both customers and contributors.
