Senior DevSecOps Engineer

About PactFi Private asset markets (PE, Private Credit, VC, Real Estate) have 10x to 9.8T in AUM over the past decade and are projected to grow to $17T in the next five years. However, digital infrastructure has not kept pace, with most of the market operating predominantly in error-prone, internal-only software solutions. PactFi provides secure, end-to-end, operational infrastructure for managing complex private credit transactions. Our web-based application brings together all parties involved in such a transaction to more efficiently allocate capital, complete KYC, share documents, manage funds flow, and more. The platform is secured to a bank-grade standard, and we have received our SOC 2 Type 2 attestation. PactFi was developed in close partnership with two of the industry's largest players, both of whom represent the top 3 players in the private credit space by both size (AUM) and deal activity. Overview We're looking for a Senior DevSecOps Engineer to work closely with our Lead DevSecOps Engineer to improve the security, reliability, infrastructure, deployment, and operational maturity of our platform. This is a hands-on individual contributor role for someone who enjoys building, automating, securing, and improving production systems — not managing a team. You'll strengthen our CI/CD workflows, AWS infrastructure, observability, SOC 2 readiness, business continuity, disaster recovery, and 24/7 on-call operations. The ideal candidate is experienced, practical, and collaborative — comfortable owning technical workstreams and helping engineering teams ship safely and efficiently. What You'll Do Infrastructure & Cloud Engineering - Design, build, and improve secure, scalable AWS infrastructure using infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Pulumi-Python). - Improve cloud networking, IAM, secrets management, environment isolation, and secure configuration. - Standardize provisioning, access control, auditability, and change management. - Troubleshoot infrastructure issues and drive long-term fixes that reduce operational toil. CI/CD & Developer Experience - Build, maintain, and improve secure CI/CD pipelines for application, infrastructure, and platform deployments. - Support container-based build and deployment workflows, including rolling updates and rollback strategies. - Support Environment as a Service for the engineering and QA teams - Reduce deployment friction while maintaining strong security and compliance controls. Security, Compliance & SOC 2 Type 2 - Embed security controls into infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud operations. - Support SOC 2 Type 2 readiness through control implementation, evidence collection, access reviews, and audit support. - Manage secrets, IAM, least-privilege access, and vulnerability management across containers, dependencies, and cloud services. - Ensure sensitive data is protected across logs, pipelines, monitoring systems, backups, and AI-assisted workflows. - Contribute to secure usage patterns for AI/ML tools and services, including data handling, vendor risk, access controls, and model boundary considerations. Observability, Reliability & On-Call - Build and improve observability across logs, metrics, dashboards, and alerts; maintain centralized logging pipelines. - Define and maintain SLOs, SLIs, alerting standards, and escalation paths. - Participate in a 24/7 production on-call rotation; support incident response, root-cause analysis, and postmortems. - Create and maintain runbooks, playbooks, and operational documentation. Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery - Design, document, and improve BC/DR plans; support RTO/RPO planning for critical systems. - Implement and test backup, restore, replication, failover, and recovery procedures. - Identify single points of failure and drive remediation across infrastructure, data stores, and operational processes.
