Why Socure?

Socure is building the identity trust infrastructure for the digital economy — verifying 100% of good identities in real time and stopping fraud before it starts. The mission is big, the problems are complex, and the impact is felt by businesses, governments, and millions of people every day.

We hire people who want that level of responsibility. People who move fast, think critically, act like owners, and care deeply about solving customer problems with precision. If you want predictability or narrow scope, this won’t be your place. If you want to help build the future of identity with a team that holds a high bar for itself — keep reading.

We are hiring exceptional Site Reliability Engineers who take pride in building and operating mission-critical, production-grade systems. This role is for engineers who own what they build, thrive in high-pressure environments, and continuously raise the reliability and operational bar.

You will work at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, automation, and observability, with a strong focus on preventing incidents rather than reacting to them.

What You’ll Own

End-to-end ownership of highly available, scalable AWS infrastructure

Design, operation, and continuous improvement of Kubernetes (EKS) platforms

Reliability of production systems through strong observability, automation, and SLOs

CI/CD systems that enable safe, fast, and repeatable deployments

Infrastructure defined and enforced through Terraform and GitOps

Incident response, root cause analysis, and long-term remediation

Raising operational standards through automation, documentation, and best practices

Technical Requirements:

We’re looking for engineers who have actually built, run, and scaled real production systems in the following areas:

Cloud & Infrastructure

Deep AWS expertise - networking, compute, IAM, scaling, security

Strong experience managing infrastructure using Terraform at scale

Kubernetes & Platform Engineering

Very strong Kubernetes fundamentals (internals, scheduling, networking, storage)

Hands-on experience operating Amazon EKS in production environments

Experience troubleshooting complex, multi-layer Kubernetes issues

Coding & Automation

Ability to write clean, maintainable, production-quality code in: Go/ Python

Strong automation mindset — eliminating toil through code

CI/CD & GitOps

Proven experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines

Hands-on experience with:

GitHub (Actions or integrations)

ArgoCD and GitOps-based deployment workflows

Observability & Reliability

Strong understanding of observability principles: metrics, logs, traces, and alerting

Hands-on experience with Datadog or similar tool for:

Infrastructure and Kubernetes monitoring

Application performance monitoring (APM)

Alerting, dashboards, and incident detection

Experience defining and using SLIs/SLOs to drive reliability decisions

Ability to turn observability data into actionable operational improvements
