SRE/DevOps Engineer
Team: Engineering
Location: United States, Canada
Commitment: Full-Time
Workplace Type: remote
Role Overview
We are building a SRE-DevOps team for the GrayKey cloud platform: the services that license, provision, and support GrayKey and VeraKey devices used by law enforcement and government agencies around the world.
You will own day-to-day reliability during Pacific and Mountain hours, extending the team's coverage well into the Eastern evening. As a result you will often be the person on point: you need to work independently, make sound calls, and hand off clearly.
The focus of this role is SRE and infrastructure operations responsibility. You will write automation and code (AI-assisted tooling is encouraged), but your core strength is keeping production AWS environments, identity, and network security healthy, secure, and well documented.
NOTE: Candidates must reside in The United States or Canada and be located within the Pacific or Mountain Time Zone.
What You'll Do
- Monitoring and incident response: watch alerts and dashboards during your hours, triage incidents, resolve what you can, and escalate with clear context when you cannot.
- Patching and vulnerability remediation: keep Linux hosts, containers, and dependencies current, and work scanner findings through to closure.
- Network and access: manage VPCs, security groups, VPN, DNS, TLS certificates, IAM, and Fortigate firewalls; diagnose subnet and security-group connectivity issues. Cloud changes go through Terraform and GitLab merge requests.
- Identity: administer Okta, including SAML/OIDC app integrations, user and application provisioning, group-based access, and MFA troubleshooting.
- Kubernetes operations: support EKS clusters (node groups, upgrades, scaling, cluster health), troubleshoot workloads (pods, deployments, services, ingress, PVCs), and resolve Argo CD sync and deployment errors.
- Backup and recovery: maintain backup strategies for critical systems and data, and regularly test restore procedures.
- Runbooks and documentation: write and maintain the operating procedures the team relies on.
- Cost and automation: track AWS spend, remove waste, and script away repetitive toil.
- Compliance support: gather evidence and maintain controls for customer and audit requirements.
- Team practice: take part in code reviews, planning, and post-incident reviews.
- Travel: less than 5%.
What We're Looking For
- 3+ years in an SRE, DevOps, or Linux/cloud systems administration role.
- Hands-on AWS experience: VPC networking, IAM, EC2, RDS, and Lambda.
- Proficiency in Linux administration and scripting in Python and Bash.
- Infrastructure as Code with Terraform.
- Working experience with Kubernetes (EKS), Argo CD, Helm, GitLab CI/CD, and Datadog (or comparable observability tooling).
- Hands-on Okta administration: SAML/OIDC integrations, provisioning, and MFA.
- Practical security experience: least-privilege IAM, secrets handling, patch management, and network segmentation. Certifications such as CompTIA Security+, CySA+, or AWS Certified Security – Specialty count toward this.
- Solid networking fundamentals: TCP/IP, DNS, TLS, routing, firewalls, and VPNs.
- Clear written communication and a track record of working independently across time zones.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
- Must reside in the United States or Canada & be located within the Pacific or Mountain Time Zone.
Nice To Have
- Exposure to SOC 2, CJIS, or FedRAMP compliance work.
- Experience with Active Directory / Azure AD (Entra ID).
- Experience with Ansible, Docker, PostgreSQL, and Redis.
- Experience using AI coding assistants for infrastructure and automation work.
- Background in IT operations or on a security-focused team.
