SRE / DevOps Lead

Required SRE / DevOps Lead
About the Role
As our SRE / DevOps Lead, you'll own the reliability, scalability, and security of the infrastructure that powers our platform - a system trusted by leading wealth managers, banks, and consumer fintechs to handle some of the most sensitive financial data their users have. You'll lead a team of 2 SREs and partner closely with product engineering, security, and our compliance partners to make sure what we build runs the way our customers (and the IRS) expect.
This is a hands-on lead role. You'll set the technical direction for our cloud platform, deployment pipelines, observability, and on-call practices - and you'll write the code, configs, and runbooks that get us there. You'll also own our IT function (identity, endpoints, SaaS) at a tighter scope, keeping the company secure and productive as we grow.
What you'll do:
Lead and grow a team of 2 SREs, setting direction across SRE, DevOps, and IT
Own the architecture, performance, and reliability of our GCP-based platform - Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD, networking, and scale
Define and uphold our SLOs, infra budgets, on-call priorities, and incident response practice
Build and operate our observability stack so engineers can find and fix problems before customers feel them
Partner with engineering and security on the controls, evidence, and audits that keep us SOC 2, SOC1 and STIG compliant and IRS-authorized
Plan and execute capacity, load testing, and game days for tax season - the highest-stakes window of our year
Own corporate IT: identity (Okta), Google Workspace, endpoint management (Jamf / Kandji), and the SaaS stack used across the company
Set the standard for how we ship: fast, safe, observable, and reversible
