Role Overview
Build and operate the infrastructure that powers a Financial Cloud platform—focusing on reproducible builds, supply-chain security, and automated, safe deployments as the organization scales.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement deterministic, hermetic builds using Docker + Kubernetes with pinned toolchains to prevent deployment drift.
- Integrate supply-chain security: SLSA attestation, artifact signing, and end-to-end dependency chain verification.
- Develop a queryable graph database to analyze change impact at the PR level and enable selective, automated test orchestration.
- Operate and optimize GitOps controllers (Argo CD / Flux) for staging → canary → production promotion with automated rollbacks.
- Build and maintain site provisioning and release tooling, including:
- site-provisioning tools
- version management consoles
- security patch force-push pipelines
Requirements
- 5+ years of deep engineering experience in Backend, Platform, Infrastructure, or Developer Tools.
- Strong production experience in Go (preferred) or Java/Kotlin.
- Deep production Kubernetes expertise, including building custom controllers/operators and CRDs.
- GitOps at scale.
- Hands-on experience with Bazel or Gradle, especially for reproducible builds, remote caching, and graph optimization.
- Proven experience building advanced CI/CD pipelines.
Bonus
- Prior developer platform or release engineering experience at fintech/crypto or massive-scale internet companies.
Eligibility
- US Citizens or Green Card holders only (no sponsorship).
