Site Reliability Engineer

Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) Remote (UK) £85,000 – £105,000 (DoE) We’re a growing FinTech scale-up and we’re on the lookout for an experienced Site Reliability Engineer to join our remote-first engineering team. Things are moving fast here, and as we continue to grow; reliability, automation, and scalability have never been more important to us. You will be our first SRE so a strong background in implementing SRE best practices would be Ideal. You will know what good looks like and strive to continuously improve automation, availability and resilience. This is a fully remote role (UK-based) working with geographically diverse teams – previous experience of working independently and collaborating remotely is imperative. What you’ll be doing: Helping to ensure our systems are reliable, scalable, and observable as we grow. Working closely with product and platform teams to build out infrastructure and tooling using AWS, Terraform, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines. Supporting and evolving our container-based architecture (we use ECS and Fargate). Driving SRE best practices: SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, reducing toil, and improving observability. Using (and hopefully enjoying!) tools like Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, and Nix to support your work. What we’re looking for: Strong experience with AWS, Terraform, Docker, and container orchestration (ECS/Fargate). Good understanding of CI/CD pipelines and DevOps workflows. Solid grasp of SRE principles – SLIs, SLOs, error budgets, observability, etc. Familiarity with Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, or similar tools. Experience with Nix is a plus (or curiosity to learn it). Bonus if you’ve worked with Azure, GCP, or have experience across cloud platforms. A bit about us: We’re building smart, modern financial tools and we’re doing it with a sharp, motivated team who care about quality and reliability. You’ll be joining at a time where you can really help shape how we scale our systems and grow our engineering culture. If that sounds interesting, drop us a message or apply now! — I’d love to hear from you.
