[Hiring] Senior Software Engineer - SRE @Socure

Role Description

We are hiring exceptional Site Reliability Engineers who take pride in building and operating mission-critical, production-grade systems. This role is for engineers who own what they build, thrive in high-pressure environments, and continuously raise the reliability and operational bar.

You will work at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, automation, and observability, with a strong focus on preventing incidents rather than reacting to them.

What You’ll Own

• End-to-end ownership of highly available, scalable AWS infrastructure
• Design, operation, and continuous improvement of Kubernetes (EKS) platforms
• Reliability of production systems through strong observability, automation, and SLOs
• CI/CD systems that enable safe, fast, and repeatable deployments
• Infrastructure defined and enforced through Terraform and GitOps
• Incident response, root cause analysis, and long-term remediation
• Raising operational standards through automation, documentation, and best practices

Qualifications

• Deep AWS expertise - networking, compute, IAM, scaling, security
• Strong experience managing infrastructure using Terraform at scale
• Very strong Kubernetes fundamentals (internals, scheduling, networking, storage)
• Hands-on experience operating Amazon EKS in production environments
• Experience troubleshooting complex, multi-layer Kubernetes issues
• Ability to write clean, maintainable, production-quality code in: Go/Python
• Strong automation mindset — eliminating toil through code
• Proven experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines
• Hands-on experience with GitHub (Actions or integrations)
• Experience with ArgoCD and GitOps-based deployment workflows
• Strong understanding of observability principles: metrics, logs, traces, and alerting
• Hands-on experience with Datadog or similar tool for infrastructure and Kubernetes monitoring
• Experience with application performance monitoring (APM)
• Experience defining and using SLIs/SLOs to drive reliability decisions
• Ability to turn observability data into actionable operational improvements

Requirements

• Engineers who have actually built, run, and scaled real production systems

Benefits

• Equal opportunity employer that values diversity in all its forms
• Accommodation during any stage of the application or hiring process
