Lead People Partner - People Partners & Investigations Team

Role Summary

The Lead People Partner (Hub 6) role represents the highest level on the People Partner craft track. This role is designed for experienced People Partners who operate with strong judgment, autonomy, and influence — and who are ready to scale impact beyond individual execution.

Lead People Partners own complex, ambiguous people challenges, influence director- and senior director–level decisions, and act as multipliers for the broader People Partner team. They play a critical role in shaping how people programs land in the business, surfacing insights that inform strategy, and improving how work gets done at scale.

This role is a key stepping stone toward Principal / Business Partner roles (Hub 7+) and broader people leadership paths.

What You’ll Do

Strategic Influence & Business Impact

• Influence director- and senior director–level leaders on talent, performance, org health, and workforce decisions.
• Bring on-the-ground context, pattern recognition, and sound judgment into leadership conversations — not just execution updates.
• Translate people insights into clear recommendations that shape decisions and prevent downstream risk.
• Act as a trusted advisor in complex, sensitive, or high-impact people situations.

Ownership of Ambiguous, High-Impact Work

• Own end-to-end people problems where there is no clear playbook — balancing fairness, business impact, and employee experience.
• Lead or co-lead complex initiatives (e.g., talent lifecycle programs, org design work, change efforts) with multiple stakeholders.
• Proactively identify gaps, risks, or inefficiencies and drive improvements without being asked.

Scaling Impact Through Systems & Partnerships

• Act as a Program Partner or SME for key COE-led initiatives (e.g., Annual Cycle, Promotions, ACR, Leadership Development).
• Partner deeply with People Business Partners, COEs, People Operations, and Investigations to ensure scalable, consistent delivery.
• Improve how work gets done by strengthening swim lanes, handoffs, and operating norms.
• Help embed ServiceNow, AI tools, and repeatable processes that reduce manual work and increase reliability.

Leadership Without Direct Authority

• Serve as a thought partner, mentor, and informal leader to other People Partners.
• Share learnings, patterns, and best practices to raise the bar across the team.
• Model strong judgment, prioritization, and “learn in the open” behaviors.
• Contribute to defining what “great” looks like for the People Partner role as it continues to evolve.

What Success Looks Like

• Leaders act on your recommendations and seek your perspective early.
• You are trusted to handle the most complex, ambiguous people challenges.
• Your work creates leverage — improving outcomes not just for your client group, but across teams or programs.
• Systems, tools, or processes are better because you influenced or improved them.
• Other People Partners look to you as a source of clarity, judgment, and expertise.

What This Role Is (and Is Not)

This role is:

• A craft-track leadership role focused on influence, scale, and judgment
• A bridge between execution-focused People Partner work and Principal-level business partnership
• Designed to grow strategic depth and leadership capability

Experience & Capabilities

Required Experience

• 8+ years of HR / People Partner experience, ideally in a high-growth, global tech environment.
• Experience working with businesses headquartered in or based in Brazil
• Spanish and English fluency required.  Preferred fluency in Portuguese.
• Demonstrated success supporting senior leaders (Director / Sr. Director level).
• Deep experience across the talent lifecycle (performance, promotions, org health, ER, change).
• Strong comfort operating in ambiguity and navigating competing priorities.

Core Capabilities

• Judgment & Integrity: Makes sound, balanced decisions in complex and sensitive situations.
• Influence & Trust: Builds credibility quickly and influences without formal authority.
• Systems Thinking: Sees patterns, identifies root causes, and improves how work scales.
• Partnership: Works seamlessly with PBPs, COEs, People Ops, and Legal.
• Adaptability: Thrives in change, learns quickly, and helps others do the same.
• AI & Automation Mindset: Uses tools responsibly to reduce admin burden and increase impact.

About Sezzle:

With a mission to financially empower the next generation, Sezzle is revolutionizing the shopping experience beyond payments, blending cutting-edge tech with seamless, interest-free installment plans that make shopping smarter and more accessible. We’re not just transforming payments; we’re redefining how people discover, interact with, and purchase the things they love while driving real impact on merchant sales through increased conversions and higher order values. As we continue to shape the future of fintech and retail, we’re building an innovative, dynamic team passionate about creating more than just a transaction but a truly unique shopping journey. If you’re excited about pushing boundaries in tech and delivering a game-changing experience for consumers and merchants alike, come join us at Sezzle and help create the future of shopping!

About the Role: 

We are seeking a technically strong, hands-on Senior Database Reliability Engineer to help design, build, and scale the database platform used across Sezzle’s applications.

This is not a traditional DBA role. This role is for an engineer who can combine deep database knowledge with software engineering, infrastructure engineering, and platform thinking. You will help build the systems, libraries, automation, standards, and guardrails that make database usage across Sezzle reliable, secure, scalable, and easy for developers to adopt correctly.

As a Senior Database Reliability Engineer, you will be responsible for improving how Sezzle applications connect to, migrate, operate, observe, and scale their databases. You will work across application teams, infrastructure, security, and engineering leadership to define patterns that improve database reliability by design — not just by operational response.

You should be comfortable owning problems end-to-end: understanding application behavior, reading code, reviewing database access patterns, building shared tooling, improving connection management, designing migration safety checks, analyzing production performance, and helping developers use databases in safer and more scalable ways.

You should consider yourself a DOer to be a good fit for this role. We are looking for someone who can ship production-quality engineering work, not just advise from the sidelines. With AI tooling and automation, you should be a force multiplier for database reliability, developer productivity, and operational excellence across Sezzle.

Compensation:

For this senior development role, with 6+ years of experience, the compensation range is  $5,000 - $9,500 USD per month. This range acknowledges the extensive expertise, leadership capabilities, and significant contributions expected at this level, offering a competitive salary to reflect the value of advanced skills and experience.

What You'll Do:

• Design, build, and maintain shared database platform components used by Sezzle applications, such as database connection packages, database client libraries, migration tooling, safety checks, query standards, and developer-facing abstractions.
• Establish reliable, scalable patterns for how Sezzle services connect to and interact with relational databases across production, staging, and development environments.
• Partner with backend engineering teams to improve database usage in application code, including connection lifecycle, transaction handling, retries, timeouts, pooling, query patterns, and migration workflows.
• Build automation and internal tooling that makes database operations safer, more repeatable, and less dependent on manual intervention.
• Define and enforce engineering standards for database access, schema design, migrations, indexing, query performance, connection management, and operational readiness.
• Architect and improve database infrastructure across AWS RDS/Aurora MySQL, PostgreSQL, RDS Proxy, read replicas, backups, failover, parameter groups, monitoring, and capacity planning.
• Lead database reliability initiatives that reduce operational risk, improve performance, and help Sezzle scale safely.
• Review application designs and database changes early in the development lifecycle to ensure reliability, scalability, maintainability, and security are built in from the start.
• Build guardrails for database migrations, including automated checks, rollback expectations, schema review workflows, migration observability, and production safety controls.
• Improve developer self-service for database provisioning, access, schema management, local development, testing, and observability.
• Investigate production database issues by combining application telemetry, database metrics, logs, query plans, traces, and cloud infrastructure data.
• Identify and fix systemic database problems, not just symptoms — including bad access patterns, unsafe migrations, inefficient queries, connection storms, lock contention, replication lag, and capacity bottlenecks.
• Create and maintain high-signal dashboards, alerts, SLOs, SLIs, runbooks, and operational readiness checks for database-backed services.
• Drive improvements in database backup validation, restore testing, disaster recovery, failover readiness, and business continuity.
• Work with security and compliance teams to improve database access controls, auditability, encryption, secrets management, least privilege, and PCI/SOC 2 aligned controls.
• Mentor engineers on database design, query performance, safe migrations, operational readiness, and production debugging.
• Use automation and AI tooling where appropriate to improve migration review, query analysis, incident investigation, documentation, and developer productivity.

What We look for: 

• 6+ years of professional software engineering, infrastructure engineering, database engineering, SRE, or platform engineering experience.
• Strong software engineering ability in at least one production programming language such as Go, Python, or TypeScript.
• Proven ability to build production-quality internal tools, libraries, frameworks, services, or platform components used by other engineers.
• Deep hands-on experience with relational databases, especially MySQL and/or PostgreSQL, in high-availability production environments.
• Strong understanding of how application code interacts with databases, including connection pooling, transactions, isolation levels, retries, timeouts, deadlocks, locking, migrations, and query execution.
• Experience designing or improving shared database access patterns, internal database packages, ORM wrappers, migration frameworks, or developer-facing database tooling.
• Hands-on experience with AWS RDS/Aurora, including provisioning, upgrades, replicas, backups, failover, monitoring, parameter tuning, and production troubleshooting.
• Experience with database connection management technologies such as RDS Proxy, PgBouncer, ProxySQL, or application-level pooling.
• Strong ability to analyze database performance using query plans, indexes, slow query logs, wait events, locks, metrics, and application traces.
• Experience designing safe database migration processes for production systems.
• Strong understanding of observability for database-backed applications, including metrics, logs, traces, SLOs, alerting, and incident response.
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD systems such as Terraform, GitLab CI/CD, Kubernetes, Helm, or similar tooling.
• Ability to influence engineering teams through clear design reviews, documentation, technical standards, and practical implementation.
• Ability to operate independently, identify high-impact problems, propose pragmatic solutions, and drive them to completion.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science.

Preferred Knowledge and Skills:

• Experience building platform capabilities for a microservices environment.
• Experience with Golang application development and database access patterns.
• Experience creating database libraries, SDKs, service templates, migration frameworks, or paved-road developer tooling.
• Experience improving database reliability across many services or teams, not just one application.
• Experience with fintech, payments, banking, e-commerce, or other high-volume transactional systems.
• Experience with compliance-sensitive environments such as PCI DSS, SOC 2, or SOX.
• Experience with database access governance, audit logging, secrets management, encryption, IAM authentication, and least-privilege access models.
• Experience with large-scale operational automation for provisioning, patching, failover testing, backup validation, access management, or schema review.
• Experience with distributed systems patterns such as transactional outbox, event-driven architecture, idempotency, queues, eventual consistency, and data consistency tradeoffs.
• Experience with observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, CloudWatch, Performance Insights, OpenTelemetry, or New Relic.
• Familiarity with Elasticsearch or other supporting data stores.
• Familiarity with AI developer tooling such as Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, Cursor, and using it to be a more productive engineer.

About You: 

• You have relentlessly high standards - many people may think your standards are unreasonably high. You are continually raising the bar and driving those around you to deliver great results. You make sure that defects do not get sent down the line and that problems are fixed so they stay fixed.
• You’re not bound by convention - your success—and much of the fun—lies in developing new ways to do things

#Li-remote #full-time

The salary range for this role is $5,000 - $9,500 per month (Gross in USD) 

About Sezzle:

With a mission to financially empower the next generation, Sezzle is revolutionizing the shopping experience beyond payments, blending cutting-edge tech with seamless, interest-free installment plans that make shopping smarter and more accessible. We’re not just transforming payments; we’re redefining how people discover, interact with, and purchase the things they love while driving real impact on merchant sales through increased conversions and higher order values. As we continue to shape the future of fintech and retail, we’re building an innovative, dynamic team passionate about creating more than just a transaction but a truly unique shopping journey. If you’re excited about pushing boundaries in tech and delivering a game-changing experience for consumers and merchants alike, come join us at Sezzle and help create the future of shopping!

About the Role: 

We are seeking a technically strong, hands-on Senior Database Reliability Engineer to help design, build, and scale the database platform used across Sezzle’s applications.

This is not a traditional DBA role. This role is for an engineer who can combine deep database knowledge with software engineering, infrastructure engineering, and platform thinking. You will help build the systems, libraries, automation, standards, and guardrails that make database usage across Sezzle reliable, secure, scalable, and easy for developers to adopt correctly.

As a Senior Database Reliability Engineer, you will be responsible for improving how Sezzle applications connect to, migrate, operate, observe, and scale their databases. You will work across application teams, infrastructure, security, and engineering leadership to define patterns that improve database reliability by design — not just by operational response.

You should be comfortable owning problems end-to-end: understanding application behavior, reading code, reviewing database access patterns, building shared tooling, improving connection management, designing migration safety checks, analyzing production performance, and helping developers use databases in safer and more scalable ways.

You should consider yourself a DOer to be a good fit for this role. We are looking for someone who can ship production-quality engineering work, not just advise from the sidelines. With AI tooling and automation, you should be a force multiplier for database reliability, developer productivity, and operational excellence across Sezzle.

Compensation:

For this senior development role, with 6+ years of experience, the compensation range is  $5,000 - $9,500 USD per month. This range acknowledges the extensive expertise, leadership capabilities, and significant contributions expected at this level, offering a competitive salary to reflect the value of advanced skills and experience.

What You'll Do:

• Design, build, and maintain shared database platform components used by Sezzle applications, such as database connection packages, database client libraries, migration tooling, safety checks, query standards, and developer-facing abstractions.
• Establish reliable, scalable patterns for how Sezzle services connect to and interact with relational databases across production, staging, and development environments.
• Partner with backend engineering teams to improve database usage in application code, including connection lifecycle, transaction handling, retries, timeouts, pooling, query patterns, and migration workflows.
• Build automation and internal tooling that makes database operations safer, more repeatable, and less dependent on manual intervention.
• Define and enforce engineering standards for database access, schema design, migrations, indexing, query performance, connection management, and operational readiness.
• Architect and improve database infrastructure across AWS RDS/Aurora MySQL, PostgreSQL, RDS Proxy, read replicas, backups, failover, parameter groups, monitoring, and capacity planning.
• Lead database reliability initiatives that reduce operational risk, improve performance, and help Sezzle scale safely.
• Review application designs and database changes early in the development lifecycle to ensure reliability, scalability, maintainability, and security are built in from the start.
• Build guardrails for database migrations, including automated checks, rollback expectations, schema review workflows, migration observability, and production safety controls.
• Improve developer self-service for database provisioning, access, schema management, local development, testing, and observability.
• Investigate production database issues by combining application telemetry, database metrics, logs, query plans, traces, and cloud infrastructure data.
• Identify and fix systemic database problems, not just symptoms — including bad access patterns, unsafe migrations, inefficient queries, connection storms, lock contention, replication lag, and capacity bottlenecks.
• Create and maintain high-signal dashboards, alerts, SLOs, SLIs, runbooks, and operational readiness checks for database-backed services.
• Drive improvements in database backup validation, restore testing, disaster recovery, failover readiness, and business continuity.
• Work with security and compliance teams to improve database access controls, auditability, encryption, secrets management, least privilege, and PCI/SOC 2 aligned controls.
• Mentor engineers on database design, query performance, safe migrations, operational readiness, and production debugging.
• Use automation and AI tooling where appropriate to improve migration review, query analysis, incident investigation, documentation, and developer productivity.

What We look for: 

• 6+ years of professional software engineering, infrastructure engineering, database engineering, SRE, or platform engineering experience.
• Strong software engineering ability in at least one production programming language such as Go, Python, or TypeScript.
• Proven ability to build production-quality internal tools, libraries, frameworks, services, or platform components used by other engineers.
• Deep hands-on experience with relational databases, especially MySQL and/or PostgreSQL, in high-availability production environments.
• Strong understanding of how application code interacts with databases, including connection pooling, transactions, isolation levels, retries, timeouts, deadlocks, locking, migrations, and query execution.
• Experience designing or improving shared database access patterns, internal database packages, ORM wrappers, migration frameworks, or developer-facing database tooling.
• Hands-on experience with AWS RDS/Aurora, including provisioning, upgrades, replicas, backups, failover, monitoring, parameter tuning, and production troubleshooting.
• Experience with database connection management technologies such as RDS Proxy, PgBouncer, ProxySQL, or application-level pooling.
• Strong ability to analyze database performance using query plans, indexes, slow query logs, wait events, locks, metrics, and application traces.
• Experience designing safe database migration processes for production systems.
• Strong understanding of observability for database-backed applications, including metrics, logs, traces, SLOs, alerting, and incident response.
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD systems such as Terraform, GitLab CI/CD, Kubernetes, Helm, or similar tooling.
• Ability to influence engineering teams through clear design reviews, documentation, technical standards, and practical implementation.
• Ability to operate independently, identify high-impact problems, propose pragmatic solutions, and drive them to completion.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science.

Preferred Knowledge and Skills:

• Experience building platform capabilities for a microservices environment.
• Experience with Golang application development and database access patterns.
• Experience creating database libraries, SDKs, service templates, migration frameworks, or paved-road developer tooling.
• Experience improving database reliability across many services or teams, not just one application.

For this senior development role, with 6+ years of experience, the compensation range is  $5,000 - $9,500 USD per month. This range acknowledges the extensive expertise, leadership capabilities, and significant contributions expected at this level, offering a competitive salary to reflect the value of advanced skills and experience.

What You'll Do:

• Design, build, and maintain shared database platform components used by Sezzle applications, such as database connection packages, database client libraries, migration tooling, safety checks, query standards, and developer-facing abstractions.
• Establish reliable, scalable patterns for how Sezzle services connect to and interact with relational databases across production, staging, and development environments.
• Partner with backend engineering teams to improve database usage in application code, including connection lifecycle, transaction handling, retries, timeouts, pooling, query patterns, and migration workflows.
• Build automation and internal tooling that makes database operations safer, more repeatable, and less dependent on manual intervention.
• Define and enforce engineering standards for database access, schema design, migrations, indexing, query performance, connection management, and operational readiness.
• Architect and improve database infrastructure across AWS RDS/Aurora MySQL, PostgreSQL, RDS Proxy, read replicas, backups, failover, parameter groups, monitoring, and capacity planning.
• Lead database reliability initiatives that reduce operational risk, improve performance, and help Sezzle scale safely.
• Review application designs and database changes early in the development lifecycle to ensure reliability, scalability, maintainability, and security are built in from the start.
• Build guardrails for database migrations, including automated checks, rollback expectations, schema review workflows, migration observability, and production safety controls.
• Improve developer self-service for database provisioning, access, schema management, local development, testing, and observability.
• Investigate production database issues by combining application telemetry, database metrics, logs, query plans, traces, and cloud infrastructure data.
• Identify and fix systemic database problems, not just symptoms — including bad access patterns, unsafe migrations, inefficient queries, connection storms, lock contention, replication lag, and capacity bottlenecks.
• Create and maintain high-signal dashboards, alerts, SLOs, SLIs, runbooks, and operational readiness checks for database-backed services.
• Drive improvements in database backup validation, restore testing, disaster recovery, failover readiness, and business continuity.
• Work with security and compliance teams to improve database access controls, auditability, encryption, secrets management, least privilege, and PCI/SOC 2 aligned controls.
• Mentor engineers on database design, query performance, safe migrations, operational readiness, and production debugging.
• Use automation and AI tooling where appropriate to improve migration review, query analysis, incident investigation, documentation, and developer productivity.

What We look for: 

• 6+ years of professional software engineering, infrastructure engineering, database engineering, SRE, or platform engineering experience.
• Strong software engineering ability in at least one production programming language such as Go, Python, or TypeScript.
• Proven ability to build production-quality internal tools, libraries, frameworks, services, or platform components used by other engineers.
• Deep hands-on experience with relational databases, especially MySQL and/or PostgreSQL, in high-availability production environments.
• Strong understanding of how application code interacts with databases, including connection pooling, transactions, isolation levels, retries, timeouts, deadlocks, locking, migrations, and query execution.
• Experience designing or improving shared database access patterns, internal database packages, ORM wrappers, migration frameworks, or developer-facing database tooling.
• Hands-on experience with AWS RDS/Aurora, including provisioning, upgrades, replicas, backups, failover, monitoring, parameter tuning, and production troubleshooting.
• Experience with database connection management technologies such as RDS Proxy, PgBouncer, ProxySQL, or application-level pooling.
• Strong ability to analyze database performance using query plans, indexes, slow query logs, wait events, locks, metrics, and application traces.
• Experience designing safe database migration processes for production systems.
• Strong understanding of observability for database-backed applications, including metrics, logs, traces, SLOs, alerting, and incident response.
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD systems such as Terraform, GitLab CI/CD, Kubernetes, Helm, or similar tooling.
• Ability to influence engineering teams through clear design reviews, documentation, technical standards, and practical implementation.
• Ability to operate independently, identify high-impact problems, propose pragmatic solutions, and drive them to completion.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science.

Preferred Knowledge and Skills:

• Experience building platform capabilities for a microservices environment.
• Experience with Golang application development and database access patterns.
• Experience creating database libraries, SDKs, service templates, migration frameworks, or paved-road developer tooling.
• Experience improving database reliability across many services or teams, not just one application.
• Experience with fintech, payments, banking, e-commerce, or other high-volume transactional systems.
• Experience with compliance-sensitive environments such as PCI DSS, SOC 2, or SOX.
• Experience with database access governance, audit logging, secrets management, encryption, IAM authentication, and least-privilege access models.
• Experience with large-scale operational automation for provisioning, patching, failover testing, backup validation, access management, or schema review.
• Experience with distributed systems patterns such as transactional outbox, event-driven architecture, idempotency, queues, eventual consistency, and data consistency tradeoffs.
• Experience with observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, CloudWatch, Performance Insights, OpenTelemetry, or New Relic.
• Familiarity with Elasticsearch or other supporting data stores.
• Familiarity with AI developer tooling such as Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, Cursor, and using it to be a more productive engineer.

About You: 

• You have relentlessly high standards - many people may think your standards are unreasonably high. You are continually raising the bar and driving those around you to deliver great results. You make sure that defects do not get sent down the line and that problems are fixed so they stay fixed.
• You’re not bound by convention - your success—and much of the fun—lies in developing new ways to do things
• You need action - speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk-taking.
• You earn trust - you listen attentively, speak candidly, and treat others respectfully.
• You have backbone; disagree, then commit - you can respectfully challenge decisions when you disagree, even when doing so is uncomfortable or exhausting. You have conviction and are tenacious. You do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision is determined, you commit wholly.
• You deliver results - you focus on the key inputs and deliver them with the right quality and in a timely fashion. Despite setbacks, you rise to the occasion and never settle.

With a mission to financially empower the next generation, Sezzle is revolutionizing the shopping experience beyond payments, blending cutting-edge tech with seamless, interest-free installment plans that make shopping smarter and more accessible. We’re not just transforming payments; we’re redefining how people discover, interact with, and purchase the things they love while driving real impact on merchant sales through increased conversions and higher order values. As we continue to shape the future of fintech and retail, we’re building an innovative, dynamic team passionate about creating more than just a transaction but a truly unique shopping journey. If you’re excited about pushing boundaries in tech and delivering a game-changing experience for consumers and merchants alike, come join us at Sezzle and help create the future of shopping!

About the Role: 

We are seeking a talented and motivated Senior Software Engineer with accounting and financial experience. This role offers an exciting opportunity to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment within a rapidly growing team, with abundant prospects for leadership and innovation.

This position is ideal for professionals who began their careers in accounting or finance and later transitioned into software engineering — individuals who now want to leverage that domain expertise to architect and scale technical solutions that solve complex financial challenges in fintech.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will design, develop, and optimize high-impact systems that power Sezzle’s financial reporting, reconciliation, and automation workflows. You’ll partner closely with cross-functional teams — including Accounting and Finance — to ensure data integrity, streamline financial processes, and build robust, auditable systems that meet enterprise-grade standards.

Your role will extend beyond development. You’ll mentor engineers, shape technical direction, and bring a strong sense of ownership to every project you lead. You should be able to build high-quality, innovative, and fully performing software in compliance with coding standards, technical design, and regulatory best practices.

Compensation:

For this senior development role, with 8+ years of experience, the compensation range is $5,000 - $9,500 USD per month. This range acknowledges the extensive expertise, leadership capabilities, and significant contributions expected at this level, offering a competitive salary to reflect the value of advanced skills and experience.

Interview Process

We believe transparency is important at Sezzle. Regularly providing feedback while setting expectations is part of our culture starting with the interview process. Advancement through each step is not guaranteed.

• Familiarity with containerized micro-service architecture deployed with Kubernetes on AWS
• Demonstrated history of delivering commercial APIs and web applications

About You: 

• You have relentlessly high standards - many people may think your standards are unreasonably high. You are continually raising the bar and driving those around you to deliver great results. You make sure that defects do not get sent down the line and that problems are fixed so they stay fixed.
• You’re not bound by convention - your success—and much of the fun—lies in developing new ways to do things
• You need action - speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk-taking.
• You earn trust - you listen attentively, speak candidly, and treat others respectfully.
• You have backbone; disagree, then commit - you can respectfully challenge decisions when you disagree, even when doing so is uncomfortable or exhausting. You have conviction and are tenacious. You do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision is determined, you commit wholly.
• You deliver results - you focus on the key inputs and deliver them with the right quality and in a timely fashion. Despite setbacks, you rise to the occasion and never settle.

About the Role: 

We are seeking a hands-on, high-impact Senior Security Infrastructure Engineer to help strengthen Sezzle’s security posture across cloud infrastructure, applications, and developer workflows. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and wants to work on real-world security problems at scale.

As a Senior Security Infrastructure Engineer, you will have a high degree of ownership and autonomy to identify risks, investigate issues, and drive meaningful security improvements across our systems. You will work across vulnerability management, detection engineering, supply chain security, and incident response - partnering closely with engineering teams to ensure security is practical, effective, and embedded into how we build and operate systems. You should consider yourself a DOer - someone who is comfortable diving into logs, analyzing systems, validating findings, and working end-to-end to get issues resolved. We value engineers who bring strong technical depth, good judgment, and the ability to turn security insights into actionable outcomes.

This role offers the opportunity to shape and scale security capabilities, including detection systems, supply chain risk controls, and security automation.

You will spend significant time investigating and resolving real-world issues, while also researching, evaluating, and building new security capabilities across areas like detection, supply chain security, and data protection.

What You’ll Do: 

• Lead and operate vulnerability management across infrastructure, platforms, and applications - including internal scans, dependency analysis, and external findings, validating true positives and driving remediation with engineering teams
• Build, operate, and mature SIEM/XDR capabilities, including log ingestion, detection rule development, alert tuning, and investigation workflows
• Investigate and respond to security incidents across cloud infrastructure and applications, performing root cause analysis and driving long-term fixes
• Design and implement detection strategies for suspicious activity, including data exfiltration patterns using application and database telemetry
• Lead and contribute to threat modeling exercises and security design reviews to identify risks early and strengthen architecture
• Apply deep expertise in AWS and Kubernetes to design, secure, and improve resilient and secure cloud infrastructure at scale
• Drive infrastructure and CI/CD hardening initiatives, with a focus on reducing software and container supply chain risk
• Lead efforts to implement and improve dependency and container supply chain risk detection systems and controls
• Partner closely with engineering teams to remediate vulnerabilities and improve secure development and deployment practices
• Support and implement security controls aligned with PCI DSS, SOC 2, and other compliance requirements
• Develop and implement automation (including AI where appropriate) to improve efficiency in security operations, detection, and response
• Triage and validate external security findings, distinguishing true positives and coordinating remediation

What We Look For: 

• 6+ years of experience in security, software, or infrastructure engineering, with hands-on experience securing cloud-based production systems and working with real-world security challenges
• Experience contributing to threat modeling and security design reviews for modern systems
• Strong hands-on experience in vulnerability management, including scanning, triage, validation, remediation coordination, and verification
• Experience working with SIEM platforms (e.g., Wazuh, Splunk, ELK) for detection engineering, monitoring, and incident response
• Practical experience triaging findings from vulnerability scanners and bug bounty programs
• Strong knowledge of AWS, Linux, and Kubernetes infrastructure, including security architecture, hardening, and operational best practices
• Experience improving infrastructure security, including CI/CD hardening and mitigating software supply chain risks
• Experience with container and dependency security tools (e.g., Snyk, Trivy, Grype, etc.)
• Ability to investigate issues directly using logs, cloud tooling, and system-level data
• Knowledge of common security vulnerabilities and mitigation strategies (OWASP, SANS, etc.)
• Working knowledge of compliance frameworks such as PCI DSS and SOC 2

Preferred Knowledge and Skills:

• Experience designing and tuning detection rules, reducing alert noise, and improving investigation workflows
• Strong understanding of cloud-native security controls, including IAM, network segmentation, and container security
• Familiarity with log-based detection, telemetry pipelines, and security analytics use cases
• Experience designing secure CI/CD workflows that reduce exposure to vulnerable dependencies and untrusted artifacts
• Ability to assess application and infrastructure risk and translate findings into actionable improvements
• Experience aligning technical security work with regulatory and compliance expectations
• Experience using automation and AI to reduce manual effort and improve consistency at scale

About You: 

• You think proactively about security and work to address risk early through clear design feedback and practical engineering solutions
• You bring strong cloud and infrastructure judgment, especially in AWS and Kubernetes environments
• You raise the bar on hardening and operational discipline, especially in CI/CD and supply chain security practices
• You approach security monitoring with an investigator’s mindset and can turn telemetry into meaningful detection and response outcomes
• You are excited to use automation and emerging technologies (including AI) to automate repetitive security work and improve team effectiveness
• You balance strong security standards with business needs and can support privacy and compliance requirements in a practical, scalable way
• You have relentlessly high standards - many people may think your standards are unreasonably high. You are continually raising the bar and driving those around you to deliver great results. You make sure that defects do not get sent down the line and that problems are fixed so they stay fixed.
• You’re not bound by convention - your success—and much of the fun—lies in developing new ways to do things
• You need action - speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk-taking.
• You earn trust - you listen attentively, speak candidly, and treat others respectfully.
• You have backbone; disagree, then commit - you can respectfully challenge decisions when you disagree, even when doing so is uncomfortable or exhausting. You have conviction and are tenacious. You do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision is determined, you commit wholly.
• You deliver results - you focus on the key inputs and deliver them with the right quality and in a timely fashion. Despite setbacks, you rise to the occasion and never settle.

You will spend significant time investigating and resolving real-world issues, while also researching, evaluating, and building new security capabilities across areas like detection, supply chain security, and data protection.

What You’ll Do: 

• Lead and operate vulnerability management across infrastructure, platforms, and applications - including internal scans, dependency analysis, and external findings, validating true positives and driving remediation with engineering teams
• Build, operate, and mature SIEM/XDR capabilities, including log ingestion, detection rule development, alert tuning, and investigation workflows
• Investigate and respond to security incidents across cloud infrastructure and applications, performing root cause analysis and driving long-term fixes
• Design and implement detection strategies for suspicious activity, including data exfiltration patterns using application and database telemetry
• Lead and contribute to threat modeling exercises and security design reviews to identify risks early and strengthen architecture
• Apply deep expertise in AWS and Kubernetes to design, secure, and improve resilient and secure cloud infrastructure at scale
• Drive infrastructure and CI/CD hardening initiatives, with a focus on reducing software and container supply chain risk
• Lead efforts to implement and improve dependency and container supply chain risk detection systems and controls
• Partner closely with engineering teams to remediate vulnerabilities and improve secure development and deployment practices
• Support and implement security controls aligned with PCI DSS, SOC 2, and other compliance requirements
• Develop and implement automation (including AI where appropriate) to improve efficiency in security operations, detection, and response
• Triage and validate external security findings, distinguishing true positives and coordinating remediation

What We Look For: 

• 6+ years of experience in security, software, or infrastructure engineering, with hands-on experience securing cloud-based production systems and working with real-world security challenges
• Experience contributing to threat modeling and security design reviews for modern systems
• Strong hands-on experience in vulnerability management, including scanning, triage, validation, remediation coordination, and verification
• Experience working with SIEM platforms (e.g., Wazuh, Splunk, ELK) for detection engineering, monitoring, and incident response
• Practical experience triaging findings from vulnerability scanners and bug bounty programs
• Strong knowledge of AWS, Linux, and Kubernetes infrastructure, including security architecture, hardening, and operational best practices
• Experience improving infrastructure security, including CI/CD hardening and mitigating software supply chain risks

• Working knowledge of compliance frameworks such as PCI DSS and SOC 2

Preferred Knowledge and Skills:

• Experience designing and tuning detection rules, reducing alert noise, and improving investigation workflows
• Strong understanding of cloud-native security controls, including IAM, network segmentation, and container security
• Familiarity with log-based detection, telemetry pipelines, and security analytics use cases
• Experience designing secure CI/CD workflows that reduce exposure to vulnerable dependencies and untrusted artifacts
