DevOps Engineer
Job Summary
Job Summary
SGX is hiring DevOps 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.
Job Responsibilities
- 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.
Job Requirements
- 5 years in DevOps 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
