Sr. DevOps Engineer

SS&C is a leading financial services and healthcare technology company headquartered in Windsor, Connecticut, with 27,000+ employees across 35 countries. We serve 20,000+ organizations, from global enterprises to small and mid-market firms, with expertise, scale, and technology.

About The Role

We're hiring a Senior DevOps Engineer to own major components of our delivery platform and cloud infrastructure. You'll lead the design and optimization of the systems behind our CI/CD, deployment automation, and production reliability, and you'll mentor the engineers around you. This role is ideal for someone equally comfortable debugging distributed systems, driving a platform roadmap, and setting standards for the wider team.

Responsibilities

• Lead the design, implementation, and optimization of CI/CD, infrastructure, and deployment automation.
• Own high-impact components of the delivery platform end-to-end—scalability, reliability, security, and performance.
• Build and evolve Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, or Bicep) and drive consistent patterns across environments.
• Design and operate CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or GitLab.
• Run containerized workloads on Docker and Kubernetes.
• Implement monitoring, logging, and observability so teams have the signals they need to run their systems.
• Partner with Security to embed DevSecOps controls throughout the SDLC.
• Lead incident RCA and drive long-term reliability improvements—hardening failure domains and reducing toil.
• Mentor junior and mid-level engineers, and help set engineering standards.

Requirements

• 5+ years in DevOps, SRE, Cloud, or Infrastructure Engineering.
• Hands-on experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Strong Infrastructure as Code skills (Terraform, CloudFormation, Bicep, or ARM).
• Proven experience with modern CI/CD tooling (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab).
• Production experience with Docker and Kubernetes.
• Confident scripting in Python, PowerShell, or Bash.
• Solid Linux and Windows administration.
• Experience running observability tooling (Datadog, Grafana, Prometheus, Splunk, Azure Monitor).
• Comfortable supporting high-availability production environments.

Skills

• Cloud certifications (AWS, Azure, or GCP DevOps / Solutions Architect).
• DevSecOps and security automation experience.
• Familiarity with SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, or FedRAMP.
• Platform-engineering or self-service infrastructure experience.
• Familiarity with AI and AI-integrated tooling.

How We Work

You'll join a team that values ownership, thoughtful decision-making, and continuous improvement. We expect you to spot failure domains before they impact operations, prefer automation over toil, and share knowledge to strengthen the team. You'll balance delivery speed with long-term reliability and lead by example in quality and cross-functional collaboration.
