The Infrastructure & DevOps team at SigFig plays a critical role in ensuring the scalability, reliability, and security of our core platforms and services. As a Manager SRE, you will lead a hands-on technical team that operates 24/7 to support mission-critical systems. This is not a traditional operations role — it’s about proactively improving system resilience, driving automation, and elevating incident response maturity.

You will work closely with engineering, SRE, and security teams to streamline deployment processes, drive observability improvements, and ensure high-availability of services in a dynamic fintech environment.

How You’ll Make an Impact

• Lead a global, distributed SRE/DevOps team operating in a 24/7 production environment.
• Develop and implement automation frameworks for self-healing, auto-remediation, and system optimization.
• Enhance monitoring and observability through tools like Splunk, Prometheus, and AI-powered alerting platforms.
• Improve CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, and drive continuous delivery at scale.
• Manage and scale infrastructure using Terraform, Kubernetes, Puppet, and similar tools.
• Act as the first technical escalation point for Level-2/L-3 troubleshooting of production incidents involving Linux servers, cloud networking, and Kubernetes clusters.
• Lead post-incident reviews, implement automated solutions for root cause issues, and contribute to a growing incident knowledge base.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Engineering, Security, and Product to align reliability initiatives with business objectives.
• Establish and enforce SLOs and error budgets to continually raise system reliability standards.

Ideal SigFigian for this Role

• 7+ years of experience in SRE, DevOps, or Technical Operations roles.
• 2+ years in a leadership role managing global, distributed teams in a high-uptime environment.
• Proven experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure, and implementing infrastructure as code at scale.

• Familiarity with containerized and microservices-based architectures.
• Passion for automation, reliability engineering, and continuous improvement.
• Excellent communication and leadership skills to coordinate across global teams.
