SAAVPVP Site Reliability Engineer
Job Summary
BUILD MARKETS. SHAPE ECONOMIES.
At SGX Group we create markets. We turn ideas into products and expand access to new opportunities. We are building the future of the exchange in-house: from architecture and platforms to the critical systems that power markets. The biggest decisions are still open to people who join us now.
SGX is hiring Site Reliability Engineers who treat operations as a software problem. Youll keep production healthy but more importantly youll build the automation tooling and agentic workflows that make running our systems boring and predictable. This is an engineering role - if your instinct on a recurring issue is to write code that removes it youll fit in well.
We operate in a regulated capital-markets environment so the bar for reliability security and operational rigour is high.
Site Reliability Engineering keeps the platforms behind SGX Groups business and market infrastructure available observable and recoverable.
The team sets the standards other engineering teams work to across service levels error budgets observability incident response and automation. It works across engineering infrastructure security and product and it owns the practice as well as seen as the SME for ensuring resilience and proactive maintenance and continuous improvement of the estate.
The next phase is about establishing SRE as a discipline rather than a function moving reliability decisions upstream into design and reducing the manual work that currently sits behind keeping services up.
- Own production reliability (SLOs capacity incident response postmortems) and turn every incident into a durable fix in code or automation
- Build the platform and tooling that make services easy to deploy observe and operate: CI/CD infrastructure-as-code observability stacks runbooks-as-code
- Apply AI agentically across operations (triage root-cause analysis remediation change review) and contribute to our internal agentic ecosystem
- Design and integrate the systems underneath our services: messaging (e.g. Kafka) orchestration (e.g. Kubernetes) and performance-sensitive infrastructure
- Partner with product engineers on release readiness rollout strategy and production hardening before things ship
- Continuously reduce toil: measure it attack it with code and raise the floor on what easy to maintain means here
- 5 years in SRE platform or infrastructure engineering with a clear track record of replacing manual work with code
- Strong programming ability in at least one modern language (e.g. Go Python Kotlin TypeScript Rust etc) you write production code not just glue scripts
- AI-native ways of working: real experience orchestrating agents for ops workflows not just using AI for autocomplete
- Deep hands-on with Kubernetes IaC (Terraform or equivalent) CI/CD and modern observability (metrics logs traces)
- Production experience on a major cloud: GCP preferred AWS acceptable
- Solid foundations in distributed systems and the failure modes that matter in production
- Incident-response maturity: calm under pressure sharp on root cause disciplined about follow-through
- Comfort in complex regulated environments
Nice to Have
- Familiarity with the FIX protocol or capital-markets domain
- Experience building internal developer platforms or self-service tooling consumed by other engineers
You will work on technology that underpins critical market infrastructure where reliability is not a quality attribute of the product. It is the product. When these platforms work participants trade and capital moves. When they do not everyone knows within seconds.
The mandate is real. You will decide what reliability means here how it is measured and what the organisation is willing to trade for it. The work is demanding and the practice is still being built which is exactly where the opportunity sits. There are not many chances in a career to establish a discipline rather than inherit one.
