DevOps Engineer

About Themis Themis is a collaborative governance, risk, and compliance platform helping banks, credit unions, and fintechs streamline oversight, strengthen compliance programs, and move faster with confidence. Our customers operate in highly regulated environments where strong governance, risk management, and compliance practices are critical. We partner closely with financial institutions and fintechs to help them build scalable, effective oversight programs, strengthen third-party oversight, and navigate an increasingly complex regulatory landscape. At Themis , we believe great companies are built through partnership, expertise, ownership, and execution. We’re looking for team members who are excited to solve meaningful problems, build trusted relationships, and help shape the future of governance, risk, and compliance. About the Role We’re looking for a DevOps Engineer to build and operate the infrastructure that keeps Themis secure, reliable, and fast as we scale. In this role you’ll own the systems that let our engineers ship with confidence: cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, observability, and the security and compliance controls our customers in financial services expect. You’ll automate the toilsome, harden the critical, and help us maintain the kind of reliability and trust that regulated institutions require. The ideal candidate is pragmatic and security-minded, comfortable owning infrastructure end to end, and motivated by making other engineers more productive. You treat reliability and security as features, not afterthoughts. Working Hours & Availability Themis is a remote-first team. Engineering operates with flexible working hours and supports asynchronous work, but all engineers are expected to maintain meaningful daily overlap with our core collaboration hours of approximately 11:00 AM–4:00 PM ET for standups, pairing, code review, and time-sensitive work. This role participates in a shared on-call rotation and requires availability outside of standard business hours to respond to incidents, maintain uptime, and support production systems. We aim to keep on-call sustainable through fair rotations, strong tooling, and follow-up to reduce recurring issues. We support flexibility where possible, but regular or extended blocks of unavailable time during core hours should be discussed and aligned in advance.
