Job Details
About UsOpenFX is on a mission to move money as freely as data.
As a Site Reliability Engineer, you will ensure the reliability, availability, and performance of OpenFX’s systems. This is a hands-on, high-impact role at the intersection of DevOps and incident response. You will participate in on-call rotations covering U.S. operating hours, triage production issues in real time, and work with engineering pods to quickly resolve or escalate incidents.
This role is ideal for a reliability-focused engineer with a strong DevOps background, excellent troubleshooting skills, and a bias for ownership when it comes to uptime and incident management.
Responsibilities & Expectations
Incident Response & Reliability
- Serve as first responder for production incidents during U.S. operating hours (±2h EST).
- Lead triage during outages, analyzing logs, metrics, and traces to identify root causes.
- Drive incident postmortems and follow-ups to prevent recurrence.
- Communicate clearly and quickly during incidents to internal stakeholders.
Infrastructure & Operations
- Own reliability outcomes across all OpenFX systems, with a focus on uptime, latency, and error budgets.
- Enhance observability through logging, metrics, alerting, and dashboards.
- Optimize on-call processes and ensure smooth handoffs across IST, EST, and PST coverage.
- Partner with DevOps and engineering pods to implement fixes or approve production changes.
Continuous Improvement
- Proactively identify systemic reliability risks and propose improvements.
- Contribute automation and tooling to reduce manual incident handling.
- Champion best practices in reliability engineering and operational excellence.
Must-Have Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, or Infrastructure Engineering.
- Proven experience leading incident response, running postmortems, and communicating during outages.
- Strong background with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred), container orchestration (Kubernetes, ECS), and Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, CloudFormation).
- Familiarity with observability stacks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, ELK, OpenTelemetry).
- Ability to triage errors at both the infrastructure and application level, and escalate effectively when deeper intervention is required.
- Ownership mindset with strong communication skills in high-pressure situations.
Nice-to-Have Qualifications
- Experience in fintech, trading systems, or other low-latency/high-availability environments.
- Coding/scripting ability in Python, Go, or similar (for automation, not feature development).
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and release engineering.
- Experience working in a follow-the-sun on-call rotation across global teams.
