Remote Fuse Finance - DevOps Engineer na Silver.dev

Company Overview

Fuse is a New York City-based high-growth startup with millions in funding from top-tier VCs.
We are building the next-generation low-code tool in financial services, allowing for self-service configuration, integration, and automation. This means that as a team, we are creating from scratch the tool that will power financial services infrastructure, and we need your creativity and problem-solving skills to create the best solution in the market.
Our clients are financial institutions and banks based in the United States, and we have a strong pipeline of prospective customers. We’re building the next-generation product for an under-served market, and the growth possibilities for the company are limitless.

Position Overview

We’re looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer who marries deep cloud-infrastructure expertise with a security-by-design mindset. You will own the availability, performance, and security of our AWS-based platform, partnering closely with engineering leads to plan, execute, and continuously improve. This is a core team role (no contractor mindset) and requires frequent synchronous collaboration with leads and management.

  • Align the platform with SOC 2 / ISO 27001 frameworks and lead technical audits

• Incident Response & Post-Mortem

  • Own incident investigations—security or availability—perform root-cause analysis, and drive corrective actions.

• Collaboration & Leadership

  • Participate in daily stand-ups, design reviews, and sprint planning.

  • Mentor junior engineers and help scale our DevOps/SecOps practice as we grow.

Essential Qualifications

• Extensive hands-on experience with AWS (GCP/Azure a plus) and secure cloud architecture.

• Strong Linux expertise (bash, hardening) and solid networking knowledge.

• Proven track record automating infrastructure with Terraform or CloudFormation.

• Deep understanding of OWASP Top 10, CIS Benchmarks, and SOC 2 workflows.

• Experience with monitoring/alerting systems and on-call responsibilities.

• Ability to implement and operate SAST/DAST, vulnerability scanners, and secret-rotation mechanisms.

• Excellent troubleshooting skills, poise under pressure, and clear communication.

Desirable Traits

• Security or cloud certifications (AWS Security Specialty, CISSP, CISM).

• Prior experience leading DevOps/DevSecOps teams in agile environments.

• Practical knowledge of Node.js/TypeScript (NestJS) and relational databases

• (PostgreSQL, MySQL), including data-at-rest encryption.
