Role
Who you are
- 5–8+ years of experience in SRE/DevOps/Infrastructure roles supporting production systems. Proven ability to own critical infrastructure and drive change end-to-end
- Experience with cloud technologies and tools (IaaS, PaaS, app services, storage queues, service bus, SQL, networking, identity, cli tools, DevOps tooling, infrastructure templating for IaC) and Terraform IaC for cloud automation is a must (Microsoft Azure is preferred)
- Experience leveraging AI-driven tooling (e.g. GitHub Copilot, Terraform Cloud’s AI features, observability assistants) to accelerate development, automate routine tasks, and enhance system reliability
- Strong software development skills, preferably in C#/.NET (our platform codebase) and scripting (PowerShell, Bash, Python). Comfortable reading and writing code to build automation tools and frameworks
- Hands-on with containerisation (Docker) and modern distributed architectures. Familiarity with Linux and Windows server administration
- Deep experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (e.g. Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions), and automating testing/deployment processes
- Proficiency with monitoring/logging tools (e.g. Azure Monitor) and using metrics/alerts to improve reliability
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Staff Site Reliability Engineer who thrives at the intersection of infrastructure, automation, and AI-first thinking
- Someone who doesn’t just “manage infrastructure” but asks: how can we make this self-healing, faster, cheaper, and more delightful? If that sounds like your kind of puzzle, you’ll feel right at home here
- Design & Infrastructure: Design, build and maintain scalable Azure cloud infrastructure (compute, networking, storage, etc.) using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform templates). Ensure the environment is well-architected for reliability, scalability, and security
- Automation & CI/CD: Develop and manage robust CI/CD pipelines (e.g. Azure DevOps/GitHub Actions) to automate deployments of infrastructure and applications. Integrate Terraform deployments smoothly into the delivery pipeline to enable continuous improvement
- AI-First Investigation: Leverage AI-driven approaches in investigation and solution planning to speed up delivery, reduce manual effort, and drive more effective implementations
- Monitoring & Observability: Implement comprehensive monitoring, logging and alerting (Azure Monitor/Log Analytics, etc.) to track health, performance and SLOs/SLAs. Continuously optimise the observability stack for cost efficiency, fast incident detection and resolution
- Incident Management: Lead incident response and root-cause analysis for system outages or performance issues. Conduct blameless post-mortems to identify improvements and prevent recurrences. Maintain run-books and on-call processes to ensure rapid recovery
- Collaboration & Best Practices: Work closely with engineering, QA, technical leadership and security teams to design solutions, share expertise, and enforce best practices (secure configurations, secret management, networking policies, etc.). Drive infrastructure enhancements, cost optimisations, and reliability improvements independently
Our take
An individual’s credit score greatly influences their life, affecting their ability to rent, receive loans, buy a house, and access affordable interest rates. But you have to have credit to build credit, leaving a lot of people in a catch-22 situation. Tilt (formerly Empower Financial) is a mobile-only app that makes credit more inclusive and accessible, helping customers achieve their credit health goals regardless of their credit history (or lack thereof).
Though other FinTech companies such as Mint or Personal Capital also offer impressive financial tracking for their customers, Tilt’s comprehensive set of personal finance features including cash advance and automatic savings offerings make it a better choice for people who want to use a single app to manage their finances.
By empowering people to take control of their money through its range of financial services, Tilt is working to break the cycle of paycheck-to-paycheck living. Backed by Blisce, Defy Ventures and Quiet Capital, the company has been significantly growing its revenue in recent years and was recognized in the 2022 Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing companies in the US.
