What the job involves
- As a Senior Site Reliability Engineer, you will be a key technical leader driving the design and optimization of our Kubernetes-based infrastructure and CI/CD systems

- You'll work hands-on with engineering teams to accelerate delivery, ensure production reliability, and embed best practices for automation, observability, and resilience
- Design, build, and scale Kubernetes infrastructure for secure, multi-tenant, high-availability applications
- Build and operate AI tooling infrastructure — stand up MCP servers and establish secure, governed AI access and guardrails for production systems
- Optimize and maintain CI/CD pipelines, improving reliability, speed, and rollback safety
- Implement progressive delivery strategies such as blue/green and canary deployments
- Advance Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, Helm, and Argo CD, defining reusable patterns for the org
- Operate and optimize streaming and analytics infrastructure: Kafka, Flink, and ClickHouse
- Build automated testing into the CI/CD lifecycle

- Lead incident response and postmortems, focusing on root cause and durable fixes
- Mentor engineers across teams on Kubernetes, CI/CD, and cloud infrastructure
Our take
Organisations understand the value of data, and the business partnerships that will help them leverage it. However, involving more companies increases the risk of vulnerabilities and, therefore, costly data breaches. SecurityScorecard is a cloud-based enterprise SaaS solution that helps organisations assess and manage cybersecurity risks, offering analyses of potential partner companies using A-F security ratings.
SecurityScorecard looms over its competitors as it covers millions of companies, offering near-instant cybersecurity analyses and an array of capabilities. It has a large, global, and big-name customer base, including 9 of the top 10 pharmaceutical companies and 9 of the top 10 banking institutions - and it is likely to go public in the next few years.
The company has consolidated an impressive lead in a sector that will certainly continue to grow. It continues to bolster its offering, for example with the release of its supply chain cyber risk management platform, MAX, as well as through the acquisition of internet scanning startup Driftnet.
