Job description

At MX, we're on a mission to empower the world to be financially strong. We power the financial experiences behind thousands of banks, credit unions, and fintechs, helping millions of people better understand, manage, and improve their financial lives. Our platform sits at the intersection of financial data, cloud-scale infrastructure, and trust, and it has to work, every time, at massive scale.

We're entering a pivotal phase of our technology evolution: moving from legacy on-prem infrastructure to a modern, cloud-native platform designed for resilience, security, and developer velocity. It's a chance to build the next generation of MX's platform thoughtfully, reliably, and with long-term impact in mind.

If you enjoy working on complex systems, care deeply about uptime and reliability, and want your work to directly power the financial well-being of millions, this is where you'll do the most meaningful work of your career.

What You'll Do

  • Drive Cloud Migration: Drive the end-to-end migration of production workloads from on-premise data centers to GCP.

  • Architect for Reliability: Design and implement production-grade Kubernetes environments and GCP architectures that prioritize 99.99+% availability.

  • Operational Excellence: Improve incident triage and improved recovery timeby implementing cloud-aware diagnostics and automated recovery patterns.

  • Empower Developers: Reduce friction in the development lifecycle by optimizing platform response times and ensuring reliable, repeatable deployment events.

  • Platform Standards, Security, and Governance: Embed security and compliance controls directly into platform abstractions (policy-as-code, identity, networking) and partner with security and compliance teams to meet regulatory requirements by design.

  • Mentor and Standardize: Build patterns and shared tooling that allow the broader engineering teams to operate confidently in the cloud without external reliance.

12-Month Definition of Success

Within 12 months, you will have demonstrably delivered:

1. Cloud Migration Execution

  • Successful migration of production workloads to public cloud
  • Prevented customer-impacting regressions attributable to platform design
  • Clear, documented cloud architectures and operational runbooks

2. Reliability & Operations

  • Sustained 99.99%+ availability during and after migration
  • Improved incident triage and improved recovery time through cloud-aware diagnostics
  • Production-grade Kubernetes operations in cloud

3. Team Uplift

  • Platform team operating independently and confidently in cloud
  • Shared standards, tooling, and golden paths adopted across teams
  • Reduced reliance on external consultants or reactively addressing infrastructure issues

4. Developer Productivity

  • Faster platform response times for developer issues
  • More reliable deployments and fewer rollback events
  • Clear reduction in developer-reported friction related to infrastructure

Basic Qualifications 

  • 10+ Total years of experience in a developer, devops, SRE, cloud role

  • 5+ years cloud experience (on-prem to cloud migration experience would be critical)

  • 5+ years Kubernetes and microservices operations experience at scale

  • Exceptional incident triage and debugging skills in high-pressure environments

  • Strong experience with infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD, and observability tooling.

Preferred Qualifications 

  • Proficiency in Golang, Ruby, Java, or similar systems programming languages.

  • Experience building developer platforms or internal tooling, or cloud enablement frameworks.

  • Familiarity with Backstage, Crossplane, Argo, Terraform, policy-as-code frameworks, or similar platform tooling.

  • Familiarity with SRE practices, SLIs/SLOs, chaos engineering, and reliability engineering frameworks.
