Join the Tilt team
At Tilt, we see a side of people that traditional lenders miss. Our mobile-first products and machine learning-powered credit models look beyond credit scores, using over 250 real-time financial signals to recognize real potential. With millions of customers worldwide, we're not just changing how people access financial products — we're creating a new credit system that backs the working, whatever they're working toward.
The Opportunity: Senior Site Reliability Engineer, APAC
Join our global SRE and Platform team to lead the build out of our APAC businesses infrastructure. Tilt's APAC businesses span India and the Philippines, and are some of our fastest growing regions. You'll own the cloud infrastructure end to end for APAC, drive regional programs already in flight, and be the senior technical voice for infrastructure in the region.
This is a genuine greenfield mandate. It suits someone who gets energised by ownership, makes decisions independently, and wants to leave an architectural fingerprint on a scaled, regulated fintech.
The manager is based in Australia, along with 3 Platform Engineers to collaborate with. The rest of the SRE and Platform Engineers are based in the US.
This is a 100% remote role that requires international travel twice a year for on-sites.
How You'll Make an Impact
Define APAC's cloud architecture end-to-end: compute, networking, storage, identity, containerisation, hosting. New PH and India environments are live from day one.
Own cross-region connectivity: VPN tunnels, partner IP allow-listing, edge/CDN domains, certs, DNS/TLS hygiene.
Lead active migration and PCI-DSS hardening programs, including sensitive data moves.
Run incident response for APAC hours (follow-the-sun on-call): root cause analysis, blameless post-mortems, durable fixes.
Continuously improve reliability, deploy confidence, alerting, and Azure spend. Partner with security/compliance on PCI-DSS scope, vulnerability scanning, least-privilege access, secret management.
Set the technical bar for the region through code, runbooks, and collaboration with US-hours Platform engineers.
Work AI-first: use coding, observability, and IaC assistants to move faster and cut toil.
Why You're a Great Fit
Deep demonstrated experience as an SRE with genuine ownership of critical systems.
Deep experience managing public cloud infrastructure (we're on Azure, AWS/GCP experience works too).
Terraform and IaC fluency. You build and maintain real modules and environments, not just one-off scripts.
Hands-on networking: site-to-site VPN, VNet design/peering, DNS, TLS/certs, firewall/IP allow-listing.
Proven incident response leadership.
Scripting fluency: PowerShell, Bash, Python, Azure CLI.
Experience managing the full DevOps pipeline.
AI-first instincts. You reach for AI-driven tooling when diving into your work.
