About DualEntry Founded in 2024, DualEntry is one of NYC’s fastest-growing AI startups, backed by top-tier VCs and 30+ unicorn founders.

Our founding team previously scaled a startup from $2K in savings to $100M ARR and a successful exit — after raising $380M+ in funding.

Now, we’re building the next wave of enterprise infrastructure: AI-powered, automation-first, and built for mid‑market finance teams tired of outdated tools.

We move fast, deploy to prod daily, and build with a deep sense of ownership.

Remote with overlap for US ET timezone (NYC HQ)

About the Role

We’re looking for a Platform Engineer / Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to establish the DevOps foundation at DualEntry. As the first member of this new team , you’ll play a pivotal role in designing our internal platform , scaling infrastructure , and setting the standards for reliability and automation across the organization. We’re seeking someone with solid AWS experience, strong problem‑solving skills, and a pragmatic approach to DevOps,

a builder who thrives on making systems reliable, scalable, and efficient.

What You’ll Do

Lead the initial setup of our DevOps and platform engineering practices, defining standards, tooling, and infrastructure strategy.

Design and deliver an internal platform for personal or feature environments to empower developers and improve velocity.

Build and maintain AWS‑based infrastructure to ensure optimal performance, scalability, and security.

Develop CI/CD pipelines to streamline deployments and automate release processes.

Implement observability tooling (logging, monitoring, alerting) to detect and resolve issues proactively.

Collaborate closely with developers to identify bottlenecks, improve delivery, and enhance system reliability.

Ensure high availability and uptime through effective monitoring, incident response, and recovery strategies.

Promote infrastructure automation and Infrastructure as Code best practices.

Document systems, configurations, and incident processes for team‑wide clarity and consistency.

Participate in on‑call rotations or coordinate time zone coverage to ensure 24‑hour reliability across regions.

What We’re Looking For

10 years of overall experience , or at least 5 years of strong AWS‑focused engineering experience .

Deep understanding of AWS services (EC2, ECS/EKS, RDS, IAM, networking, etc.).

Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, etc.).

Strong background in CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or similar).

Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and modern deployment workflows.

Experience implementing monitoring and observability solutions (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, etc.).

Comfortable working independently to build new systems and processes from the ground up.

Time zone flexibility to support partial 24‑hour coverage is preferred.

How You Operate

Pragmatic : You like to move forward and make decisions based on reality (not theory). We don't debate if Cassandra has the most theoretical scalability — we use Postgres until it breaks.

Hard working : 'You can work long, hard, or smart, but [here] you can't choose two out of three' — Jeff Bezos. We wrote this job post during the weekend.

Curious : You love to learn, are highly curious about new frameworks and solutions to engineering problems.

Fast-moving

– You deploy daily, iterate quickly, and never wait for permission.

Why You’ll Thrive Here

You’ll help build the foundational backend of a product with massive market pull.

You’ll work with a high‑trust, high‑speed team that cares about clean code and clear ownership.

You’ll see your work go live weekly and shape how modern finance teams operate.

You’ll grow fast — with full visibility and real responsibility.
