Sr. DevOps Engineer

Varo is an entirely new kind of bank. All digital, mission-driven, FDIC insured, and designed for the way our customers live their lives.

A bank for all of us.

You will be joining an existing team of Devops Engineers who are an integral part of our software engineering organization. We are an automation-focused team who would rather be writing Kubernetes jobs or Terraform than tunneling into a Linux instance to see how it's feeling. In a typical day members of our team are hands on with everything from the production infrastructure to our CI/CD pipelines. We collectively strive to build and maintain a rapid-feedback platform that enables our engineers to accomplish their own goals instead of creating friction.

What you'll be doing

• Linux systems administration
• Scripting in Python, Golang, or Bash
• AWS administration with a strong understanding of IAM roles and policies
• Kubernetes and Istio administration
• Kafka administration
• Managing production infrastructure with IAC tools (Terraform, Ansible, Helm, etc.).
• Deploying containerized applications
• CI/CD tools, automation, management, and processes
• Monitoring, Logging, and Tracing experience (Prometheus/Thanos, ELK/Loki, Jaeger/Opentracing)
• Ability to participate in an on-call rotation (1 week on, 4 weeks off)

You'll bring the following required skills and experiences

• Understanding complex distributed systems
• Focusing on the end goal rather than getting stuck in the implementation
• Finding creative data-driven solutions to difficult problems
• Moderate understanding of Layer 7/4/3 protocols
• Database administration experience
• Network administration experience
• Software development experience
• DevSecOps/Security operations experience
• Experience working in a highly-regulated industry

About Varo

Varo launched in 2017 with the vision to bring the best of fintech into the regulated banking system. We’re a new kind of bank – all digital, mission-driven, FDIC-insured, and designed around the modern American consumer. 

As the first consumer fintech to be granted a national bank charter in 2020, we make financial inclusion and opportunity for all a reality by empowering everyone with the products, insights, and support they need to get ahead. Through our core product offerings and suite of customer-first features, we aim to address a broad range of consumer needs while profitably serving underserved communities that have been historically excluded from the traditional financial system.

We are growing quickly in our hub locations of San Francisco, Salt Lake City, and Charlotte along with colleagues located across the country. We have been recognized among Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies, Forbes’ Fintech 50, and earned the No. 7 spot on Inc. 5000’s list of fastest-growing companies across the country.
