  • Perform vulnerability assessments, maintain standard security practices, and address blocking issues to enforce alignment with banking industry regulations.
  • Lead all aspects of TCP/IP networking, firewall connectivity validation, and system performance tuning to optimize financial transactions and application uptime.
  • Coordinate with Development, QA, and Operations to improve system performance, conduct PIV (Production Implementation Verification) checks, and validate infrastructure changes.
  • Apply expertise in Nexus and Jenkins for automated deployments, handle partner concerns, and coordinate major maintenance processes (MMP).
  • Maintain detailed documentation in Confluence and contribute to continuous process improvements.
What you'll need to succeed (required skills)
  • A proven track record of 5 or more years in DevOps, TechOps, or Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) within the banking, financial services, or highly regulated industries.
  • Proficiency in Linux OS, shell scripting, CI/CD tools, cloud technologies (AWS preferred), and monitoring solutions.
  • Expert with Prometheus, Grafana, ELK and Splunk.
  • Detailed understanding of security standard methodologies, vulnerability management, and regulatory requirements in financial services.
  • Top-tier knowledge of TCP/IP, routing, NAT, and security protocols.
What will help you stand out (preferred skills)

  • Excellent interpersonal skills with a talent for building positive, collaborative relationships across diverse teams.
