Junior Site Reliability Engineer

Show

We're building a MAS-regulated marketplace and clearing house, and we want you to grow with us.

Our Site Reliability Engineering team operates mission-critical platforms that power real-time trading and clearing services. We're looking for a hungry, hands-on engineer who's solid on the fundamentals and ready to level up fast in a high-stakes, high-support environment. You don't need to have done it all — you need to be the kind of person who figures things out, automates the boring stuff, and cares deeply about reliability.

🔧 What You'll Do



Cloud Infrastructure

  • Provision and manage AWS infrastructure using Terraform
  • Work with VPCs, subnets, security groups, and route tables to support secure network design
  • Support Kubernetes (K8s) cluster operations for containerised workloads
  • Contribute to multi-account governance under AWS Control Tower
  • Help configure and maintain Cloudflare for DNS, WAF, and edge security

Operations & Reliability

  • Monitor, patch, and tune infrastructure to keep systems healthy and performant
  • Participate in incident response and post-mortems
  • Support vulnerability identification and remediation workflows
  • Collaborate with the security team on IAM, encryption, and data protection practices
  • Learn and apply CSPM tooling to maintain cloud security posture

Automation & Collaboration

  • Build and improve CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure provisioning
  • Write scripts to automate repetitive operational tasks
  • Work closely with app developers to support reliable platform delivery
  • Document what you build — designs, runbooks, and security controls


✅ Must-Haves

  • Solid Linux fundamentals — you're comfortable navigating systems, reading logs, and troubleshooting from the command line
  • Scripting experience in at least one language — you automate things instead of doing them twice
  • Working knowledge of core AWS services (EC2, VPC, IAM, S3, CloudWatch)
  • Hands-on experience with Terraform — you can read a plan, write basic configs, and apply changes without hand-holding
  • Familiarity with Git and CI/CD pipelines — branching, PRs, and understanding how code gets from repo to production
  • An observability mindset — you know the difference between a log, a metric, and an alert, and you reach for them instinctively when something breaks
  • 1+ years of hands-on experience in an infrastructure, cloud, or SRE-adjacent role
  • Eagerness to learn fast in a high-stakes, regulated environment — we'll invest in you if you invest in the work


⭐ Great to Have (we'll help you get here)

  • Exposure to Kubernetes — even local clusters or coursework counts
  • Familiarity with Cloudflare products (DNS, WAF)
  • Awareness of CSPM or cloud compliance frameworks (CIS, NIST, ISO 27001)
  • Hands-on with GitOps tools like ArgoCD or Flux
  • Experience with Elastic Stack for log aggregation and observability
  • Familiarity with PagerDuty or similar incident management platforms
