Reliability & Incident Management Participate in on-call and incident-response practices, including postmortems, for a platform where downtime directly impacts loan funding and servicing. AI-Native Platform Engineering Explore and help integrate AI-assisted engineering tools (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) into infrastructure workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and internal tooling. Support the adoption of AI-driven observability practices — anomaly detection, predictive alerting, and AI-assisted root-cause analysis — layered on top of existing monitoring stacks. Help support the infrastructure needs of ML/AI-driven product features (e.g., underwriting and fraud models), including model serving, inference monitoring, and compute scaling for AI workloads. Contribute to self-service internal tooling and golden paths that make it easier for engineers to ship safely.

Hands-on use of AI coding assistants and developer tools (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) in real engineering workflows. Familiarity with policy-as-code (e.g., OPA, Kyverno) and software supply chain security practices (SBOM generation, artifact signing/provenance) as applied to CI/CD pipelines. Preferred Expertise 2+ years of experience in cloud infrastructure, DevOps, or Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), with hands-on experience in AWS production environments. Experience supporting cloud platforms aligned with the AWS Well-Architected Framework, with an interest in security, reliability, operational excellence, performance efficiency, and cost optimization.
