Join an exciting startup company in the fintech space named one of Inc. Magazine’s Best Workplaces, Best FinTech to Work for by American Banker, and Best Place to Work by Built in NYC year after year.

What you'll be doing

Our services are used by leading fintechs and top tier banks. Our clients rely on Alloy’s uptime to serve their clients. You'll help architect and build infrastructure solutions to improve our uptime and exceed our SLOs. We are looking for someone who has:

• You’ve provisioned and managed a variety of AWS resources, using infrastructure as code. 

• You’ve implemented solutions for deploying applications to Kubernetes in production. 

• You have helped architect and build secure and reliable systems and deployment pipelines.

• You’re comfortable writing and reviewing code.

• You are pragmatic; you can justify when to build and when to buy. You recognize that what we’re creating is part of something bigger, and always try to eliminate constraints and keep releases flowing.

• You’ve implemented and used tools like Datadog, Splunk, or Newrelic to find where the latency in distributed systems is coming from, then proposed and implemented solutions to reduce that latency. 

• You’ve participated in on-call rotations, but you spend your day building systems that are resilient and self-healing, so PagerDuty alerts don’t happen.

What you’ll be doing 

“Keeping the lights on”

• Our services are used by leading fintechs and top-tier banks. Our clients rely on Alloy’s uptime to serve their clients. You’ll help architect and build infrastructure solutions to improve our uptime and exceed our SLOs. You’ll improve logging, monitoring, and alerting solutions to help with early warnings. You’ll also participate in our on-call rotation. Fortunately, because of our focus on continuous improvement, resiliency, and automation, incidents are rare, recoverable, and quickly followed up by blameless postmortems.

Writing infrastructure as code

• Our infrastructure is represented in Terraform. You’ll be working with the team to make improvements to our IAC, as well as provision new infrastructure in support of our broader engineering goals.

Automating 

• We use a collection of AWS Tools, Github Actions, third-party solutions, and custom scripts to automate releases, deployments, scaling events, and other actions. You’ll help improve existing automated processes as well as create new ones to improve resiliency, performance, and predictability.

Supporting application developers

• Our shared goal of shipping quality code means you’ll be looking for and eliminating constraints in the deployment pipeline, helping to maintain dev-prod parity, and looking for ways to ensure applications get to production quickly, predictably, and drama-free. 

Hunting down hard-to-reach errors, and finding ways to prevent them

• Computers are hard. You’ll sometimes need to spend many hours investigating edge case bugs at the Network, Operating System, and application levels -- then coming up with the solution.

We're a lean team, so your impact will be felt immediately. If this all sounds like a good fit for you, why not join us?
