Release Engineer

Nymbus (https://nymbus.com/) isn’t just a leader in fintech; we’re a community of innovators passionate about reimagining banking. Our award-winning modern core platform and cloud-based technology serve as the backbone for financial institutions eager to modernize and excel. We operate with an AI-first mindset across our business, continuously improving

how we work and the value we deliver to our clients. Our culture is grounded in collaboration, accountability, and a strong commitment to execution. WORK ENVIRONMENT: Nymbus is a remote-first company. Occasional travel may be required for client engagements, team planning sessions, or company events. Working hours primarily align with the Eastern Time Zone; candidates located in the Eastern or Central time zones are preferred. POSITION SUMMARY: We're hiring a Release Engineer to join our growing Release Engineering team. You'll be the hands-on practitioner responsible for executing production deployments across the Nymbus platform, working at the intersection of deployment tooling and product knowledge. You'll execute releases with precision, validate behavior post-deployment, and help maintain the stability of a platform that financial institutions depend on. This is a high-trust, high-accountability role. You'll have direct access to production environments and be expected to exercise sound judgment in every action you take. We're not looking for someone to run a checklist. We're looking for a technical contributor who understands what they're deploying, why it matters, and what to watch for. You'll join as part of the founding team building out our Release Engineering function, with a clear path to growing into a senior/technical lead role as you take on more ownership. Our platform is hosted on AWS, so prior AWS experience is a strong plus for this role. ESSENTIAL JOB FUNCTIONS/

RESPONSIBILITIES: Execute production and non-production deployments using Helm, ArgoCD, and Rancher, following established release procedures and exercising independent judgment when conditions deviate from expected. Manage Helm chart configurations and releases, ensuring deployments are consistent, repeatable, and aligned with the intended release state across environments. Use ArgoCD to monitor application sync status, manage rollouts, and respond to drift or deployment failures in a timely and methodical manner. Operate within Rancher to manage Kubernetes cluster workloads, validate pod health, and troubleshoot deployment-level issues across environments. Build working knowledge of the Nymbus platform architecture to inform deployment decisions and speed up issue diagnosis. Participate in off-hours release windows, including evenings and weekends as scheduled, to support deployments that require low-traffic maintenance windows. Monitor system behavior immediately following deployments, identifying anomalies early and escalating or rolling back as appropriate. Contribute to release documentation, deployment runbooks, and post-release summaries. Partner with the Release Coordination team to confirm deployment readiness, flag blockers early, and maintain clear communication throughout the release cycle. Use AI coding tools as a core part of how you work: drafting and reviewing merge requests, generating boilerplate config and chart changes, and speeding up routine deployment tasks. Identify repetitive or manual steps in the release process and build small tools, scripts, or automations (AI-assisted or otherwise) to eliminate them and streamline

the team's workflow.

QUALIFICATIONS: At least 2 years hands-on experience with Helm and Kubernetes in a production environment. Familiarity with ArgoCD and Rancher, strongly preferred. Experience deploying and troubleshooting workloads on AWS is a strong plus. Comfort using AI coding assistants (such as GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, or similar) as a daily part of your workflow, not just for autocomplete but for drafting merge requests and building internal tooling. A builder's instinct: when you spot a repetitive task, your first thought is how to script or automate it away. Experience in a regulated or high-availability environment (fintech, banking, or SaaS platforms serving enterprise clients) is a meaningful advantage. Strong process discipline and clear communication. You follow procedure rigorously, speak up early when something looks wrong, and don't cut corners under time pressure. Comfort with off-hours work as a routine part of

the role, not an exception. Off-hours availability required for scheduled production deployments. SALARY &
