The posting

Self Financial is a venture-backed, high-growth FinTech company with a mission to increase economic inclusion and financial resilience by empowering people to build credit and build savings.

We're looking for people who share our passion and are driven to tackle challenges, find solutions and make the financial space better for the communities we serve.

Our team is passionate about challenging the status quo of the credit industry by providing people accessible tools to take control of their credit. Executing on our mission requires deep collaboration across our teams to ensure our products reach the people who can benefit from them the most, particularly the 100 million+ Americans who have no or low credit.

As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will deploy, monitor, and maintain the production environment/services, taking a holistic view of system health, while ensuring that our platform is stable and balanced. Self's DevOps Engineers are a blend of pragmatic operators and software developers that apply sound engineering principles, operational discipline, and mature automation to our infrastructure. You will report to the Manager, DevOps Engineering.

What you'll do:

  • Work closely with Developers to provide feedback and drive operational improvements within our production infrastructure
  • Develop infrastructure and network best practices
  • Participate in our on-call operations and monitoring pool
  • Document processes and procedures with the appropriate level of detail
  • Create, maintain, extend, and operate the SDLC platform used to build, test, package, and deploy our web and mobile services and applications
  • Measure and optimize system performance to push our capabilities forward, get ahead of customer needs, and innovate to continually improve
  • Provide primary operational support for large, distributed software applications
  • Production performance and uptime analysis

What you'll bring:

  • 5+ years of administration experience with AWS
  • 5+ years of experience within a high-performance, 24x7, SRE/SysOps/DevOps team
  • 5+ years of experience with a version control system (e.g., Git)
  • Knowledge of one or more scripting languages (e.g., Python or Bash)
  • 2+ years of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform

Experience with the following technologies:

  • Build and scale AI-native infrastructure - automating CI/CD, observability, and incident response with Claude at the core of the workflow
  • Modern web application frameworks
  • Pipeline-based SDLC automation such as GitLab, Jenkins Pipelines, AWS CodePipeline, or other automation tools
  • Delivering services via containers to AWS
  • Working in a security and compliance-sensitive industry or environment

Working knowledge of the following:

  • DNS
  • HTTP/HTTPS
  • Linux
  • SSH/SCP/SFTP
  • Ability to be flexible, multi-task, and organize priorities in a fast-paced work environment, while maintaining a high level of focus and accuracy

And these skills are a bonus:

  • Experience maintaining RDBMS systems (PostgreSQL preferred)
  • Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science
  • Experience with MLOps (DevOps for Machine Learning)

Base salary range: $130,000 - $160,000 annually. Individual pay is based on factors unique to each candidate, including skill set, experience, and other job-related reasons.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
