About Bretton AI

Bretton runs AI-native operations for the financial back office. OCC, Fed and FDIC regulated banks use Bretton AI to run compliance, risk, fraud, and operations on one platform, on their own data and policies, with every output traced, cited, and audit-ready.

We’ve raised over $95M from Greylock, Y Combinator, Thomson Reuters Ventures and other top tier investors. We’re based in downtown San Francisco and our team comes from world-class organizations like Google, Netflix, Stripe, Plaid, Brex, and more.

The Role

As a Senior Infrastructure Engineer, you will own the foundation that enables us to deploy secure, compliant AI systems at major financial institutions fighting financial crime at a massive scale. Our infrastructure is built on a modern, container-native architecture, leveraging Docker and Kubernetes to deliver consistent, auditable deployments across diverse customer environments.

You will work directly with our largest customers—institutions serving over a billion people—to architect, automate, and harden our on-premises and cloud environments to meet the strictest regulatory and performance requirements, including SOC 2 compliance. Your work will be informed by real customer needs and will ship to everyone, so you must build enterprise-grade systems, work effectively with engineering and customer teams, understand financial services compliance, and adapt quickly.

What You’ll Do

• Own and evolve our Kubernetes infrastructure, including cluster management, service mesh configuration, and container security policies.
• Design and implement progressive delivery pipelines with canary deployments, automated rollbacks, and deployment health validation.
• Build and maintain our observability infrastructure in Datadog, including dashboards, monitors, SLOs, and distributed tracing.
• Drive incident response for high-severity outages and proactively model capacity needs for low-latency AI inference.
• Architect and automate secure infrastructure using Infrastructure-as-Code for VPCs, IAM policies, Kubernetes manifests, and private cloud deployments.
• Maintain and improve the infrastructure controls that support our SOC 2 compliance posture.
• Lead customer engagements for enterprise rollouts and mentor mid-level engineers on infrastructure best practices.
