Senior SRE, Software Engineering (AWS / Scaling Infrastructure)
About The Position
We are looking for two Senior Site Reliability Engineers to build and scale reliability foundations for a rapidly growing fintech platform. This role focuses on architecting resilient infrastructure, strengthening observability, and establishing sustainable SRE practices as systems scale from thousands to millions of users. You will lead incident response, design highly available cloud architectures, and ensure engineering teams can ship quickly without compromising reliability. The position requires deep AWS expertise, strong infrastructure-as-code experience, and a proactive reliability mindset. You will partner closely with feature teams to design scalable databases, async workflows, and data pipelines. This is a high-impact hybrid role based in NYC for engineers who thrive in fast-scaling environments.
