Job description

Company Description
M1 Finance has created a personal wealth-building platform made for the modern era, uniting personal perspective and automated ease. We seamlessly combine free investing and low cost borrowing all in one intuitive, automated Finance Super App, and we're driven by a mission to empower personal financial well-being. We believe that financial well-being is fundamental to overall well-being, and we strive to deliver products that are simpler, smarter, and stronger than those created by our boring, entrenched, and slow-moving competitors in the personal finance industry.
Our clients have already trusted us with over $13 billion of assets, we're currently helping hundreds of thousands of people grow and manage their wealth with our industry-leading automation and tools, and we're adding thousands of new clients every day.
We're looking for passionate people who want to improve and build on what we've created and take responsibility to help others build something meaningful and sustainable for their futures.
We mean it when we say, "M1 is yours to build."
If this sounds interesting to you, read on!
Job Description
What you'll do
  • Help design and evolve our AWS foundation - account structure, network architecture (VPC, DNS, routing), and IAM - and shape the Terraform conventions the infra team builds on.
  • Harden our network's reliability, including the hybrid and on-prem connectivity behind systems that can't go down.
  • Operate and evolve our Kubernetes (EKS) clusters and the in-cluster platform services that run on them - ingress, service mesh, autoscaling, and policy.
  • Build the observability layer - metrics, logs, traces, and alerting - so teams can see how their systems behave and catch issues before customers do.
  • Expand our self-service platform and CI/CD + GitOps automation, so routine changes are safe and repeatable instead of manual and risky.
  • Keep security, secrets management, and least-privilege access sane as the platform grows.
  • Share in on-call, and bring an SRE mindset to keeping reliability, cost, and toil all trending in the right direction.

Qualifications
Senior-level experience is the one thing we really need.
You've spent several years (typically 5+) building and running production infrastructure or platforms, and you've earned real judgment from owning systems when they broke - not just when they behaved. We care more about how deep that experience runs than where you got it.
You've got hands-on depth in several of these, and pick up the rest fast:
  • Cloud infrastructure (we run on AWS)
  • Kubernetes in production (we use EKS)
  • Infrastructure as code (we use Terraform)
  • CI/CD and GitOps-style automated delivery (we use CircleCI and Flux)
  • Observability - metrics, logs, traces, and alerting
  • Secrets management and secure, least-privilege access
  • Networking and Linux fundamentals - TCP/IP, DNS, routing and subnetting, firewalls and security groups, load balancing, and TLS

Nice to have - none required, but any is a welcome bonus:
  • General database administration and systems administration experience
  • Experience with Kafka or another event-streaming platform
  • Experience in regulated environments (e.g., ISO 27001 / SOC 2 certified) or working directly with auditors
  • Windows experience - administration, PowerShell, and SQL Server
  • Experience with agentic AI tooling and securing agentic workflows

If you're a strong senior engineer excited by this work but coming from an adjacent stack or a less conventional path, we still want to hear from you.
Salary Band: $165,000 - $195,000
Additional Information
Our Values
Our team embodies our core principles and if these principles speak to you - we'd love to talk with you.
  • Mission driven We know that financial well-being has a dramatic impact on an individual's quality of life. We are passionate about helping people in this domain.
  • Extreme ownership We are responsible for the results to our clients, teammates, and shareholders. We own everything in our domain that affects these results.
  • Boldness Thinking small is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Thinking big inspire results. We would rather fail at the meaningful than succeed at the trivial.
  • Ruthless prioritization We want to do more than we possibly can. We are disciplined with the use of our precious people, time and money. That means saying no to a lot of good ideas so we can focus on the most important thing.
  • Integrity We earn and maintain trust by always prioritizing our clients' interests; it must never be compromised.

Our Perks
  • Competitive Pay and Stock Options
  • Comprehensive health, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance
  • Retirement benefit with employer match
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Transparent and open communication with leadership
