Hamsa is building the operating system for global finance. Through our AI-enabled Unified Ledger, we connect the world's largest financial institutions while solving critical challenges in interoperability, privacy, and speed. With $400B on platform in 2025 and $1T projected for 2026, we're scaling rapidly and reshaping how the world's financial system operates. Backed by top-tier investors, our global team operates across the US, APAC, EU, and LATAM.
At the heart is Hamsa’s AI-powered EVM-compatible ledger, the first blockchain infrastructure to combine powerful IP: composability, high speed (10-100X faster), and zero-knowledge privacy—enabling real-time settlement for stable coins and digital assets on a public chain, with privacy. Hamsa serves the world’s largest global financial institutions in the US, LATAM, and APAC. We are seeking a Senior DevOps / Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to build and operate a production-grade, institution-ready platform supporting data-intensive financial applications and blockchain-integrated services.
This role sits close to the application stack and is responsible for ensuring:
This is a high-impact role requiring both strong technical depth and the ability to operate within a regulated, institution-grade environment.

- Define deployment standards for micro-services, data pipelines, blockchain-integrated services
- Maintain environment consistency across dev, staging, and production
- Support safe, auditable, and repeatable releases
- Build and maintain a comprehensive observability stack, including: metrics (e.g., Prometheus), logs (e.g., ELK / OpenSearch or similar), distributed tracing (e.g., OpenTelemetry)
- Define SLIs, SLOs, and alerting strategies
- Enable proactive detection and resolution of system issues
- Partner with engineering teams to improve system resilience and performance
- Establish and maintain production readiness standards
- Lead or participate in: incident response, root cause analysis (RCA), post-mortems
- Continuously improve system reliability and operational processes
- Integrate platform with institution-grade DevOps and security tooling, including: identity and access management, secrets management, audit logging, vulnerability scanning
- Ensure compliance with internal policies and regulatory expectations
- Work closely with cybersecurity teams to embed security into the platform
- Provide tooling and support for application teams to: deploy services reliably, monitor and debug systems, scale workloads effectively
- Improve developer experience through automation and platform abstractions
- Build and maintain infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) (e.g., Terraform or similar)
- Automate provisioning, scaling, and operational tasks
- Ensure reproducibility and consistency across environments
- 5+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or platform engineering roles
