ABOUT THIS ROLE

Position Overview:

As a DevOps Engineer you will be a key member of the Apex Tax and Cost Basis engineering team, responsible for designing, building, and maintaining the automation that runs our batch processing platform across client environments. Your primary focus will be converting today's run-day and disaster recovery scripts into parameterized, orchestrated deployment pipelines and workflows, and building the deployment management tooling that tracks which version is running in each environment. This is a hybrid application engineering / systems engineering role: you will support new client implementations and custom scripts on the application side, and manage pipelines and run-day operations on the systems side. You will work closely with our development, TechOps, and cloud infrastructure teams to make the platform more sustainable and scalable.

Workflow Orchestration:

Migrate existing run-day, disaster recovery, and operational scripts into orchestrated deployment pipelines and workflows. Design, build, and operate production workflows with clear dependencies, retries, and alerting.

Script Parameterization:

Refactor runtime scripts so they are parameterized, reusable, and environment-agnostic, eliminating hardcoded per-client and per-environment values and the manual edits that come with them.

Deployment Management:

Build and maintain tooling that tracks build versions across environments (development, QA, UAT, production) and automates deployment and promotion between them.

Client Implementations:

Support new client onboarding by developing and adapting custom scripts, configuration, and automation on the application side.

Run-Day Operations:

Manage processing pipelines and run-day operations. Troubleshoot batch failures, identify root cause, and replace repeat manual intervention with durable automated fixes.

Cloud Automation:

Build and operate automation on Amazon Web Services (AWS) using native CLIs, SDKs, and infrastructure-as-code practices.

Monitoring and Notifications:

Build alerting and notification automation (Slack, email) so failures and stalls surface before they affect clients.

Process Improvement:

Think critically about existing processes and propose better solutions rather than maintaining the status quo. Drive improvements that make the platform more sustainable and scalable.

Documentation:

Maintain comprehensive documentation of workflows, runbooks, deployment procedures, and automation standards.

Collaboration:

Collaborate with development, TechOps, and infrastructure teams to streamline how work moves from code to production.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• 3+ years experience as a developer (Python, Java, shell, etc.).
• Hands-on experience building and operating orchestrated deployment pipelines and production workflows.
• Strong Python and shell scripting (bash) skills.
• Experience with cloud platforms, primarily Amazon Web Services (AWS), and automating against them.
• Experience with Linux system administration and troubleshooting.
• Familiarity with Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines and managing versions and releases across multiple environments.
• Working knowledge of SQL and relational databases (PostgreSQL).
• A developer's mindset applied to operations: the ability to see a manual process, understand why it exists, and design something better.
• Excellent problem-solving and troubleshooting skills.
• Strong communication and teamwork abilities.

Nice to Have

• Experience working with Apache Airflow or similar workflow orchestration tools.
• Experience automating disaster recovery processes.
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, CloudFormation).
• Java development experience.
• Background in financial services, brokerage operations, tax reporting, or cost basis processing.
