Devops Engineer, Automation & AI Platforms

Axos Bank is hiring a DevOps Engineer to run the platforms behind the bank’s automation and AI work and keep them reliable, secure, and well governed as adoption grows across lines of business. This is a hands-on engineering seat: deploying, upgrading, hardening, and monitoring the platforms and the Linux, container, and database infrastructure they run on, across Dev, QA, UAT, and Prod.

The platforms serve citizen developers and engineering teams in a regulated bank, so reliability, access control, and audit evidence matter as much as features. You will work with Infrastructure and Security, and help set the standards the platforms run under.

Responsibilities:

Run the platforms

• Deploy, upgrade, and operate the platforms across Dev, QA, UAT, and Prod, including scaling, patching, and version management
• Plan and carry out upgrades and migrations with minimal service impact
• Evaluate and onboard new automation and AI platform capabilities

Infrastructure

• Operate the Linux hosts and Docker containers the platforms run on: hardening, patching, capacity, and performance tuning, in partnership with Infrastructure
• Operate the PostgreSQL databases behind the platforms: backup and restore, replication and failover, and performance tuning
• Support the Redis and queue workloads the platforms depend on

Reliability

• Instrument the platforms for health, performance, and capacity using the enterprise observability stack; build dashboards, alerts, and runbooks
• Take part in incident response and root-cause analysis for platform events

Automation and governance

• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure as code (Terraform or equivalent) for platform configuration and deployment
• Integrate platforms with enterprise identity, secrets management, and source control; manage platform-level access and credentials
• Help define and document hardening baselines, runbooks, and standards; work with InfoSec on access reviews, secret rotation, and control evidence for audit and examination, While performing the duties of this position, the employee is required to sit for extended periods of time. Manual dexterity and coordination are required while operating standard office equipment such as computer keyboard and mouse, calculator, telephone, copiers, etc.

The work environment characteristics described here are representative of those an employee may encounter while performing the essential functions of this position. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of this position.
