About The Position

SRC Logistics is seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer to own infrastructure and operational processes supporting its enterprise SaaS platforms. The systems serve international enterprise customers, support complex integrations, and process transactions with substantial financial consequences. The role combines senior software engineering capabilities with extensive systems administration experience, requiring an understanding of how application code, databases, servers, networks, and security controls interact and how changes affect customers and business operations. Working with software engineering and IT, the engineer will help keep RLMS and related services reliable, secure, and maintainable. The position reports to the Senior Software Architect. This is a full-time, primarily remote position requiring Missouri residency. Most major production changes occur outside normal business hours, with coordinated flex time during business hours. The role includes after-hours response to significant service incidents under established coverage and escalation arrangements. Work schedules must be transparent, and time must be reported accurately in 15-minute increments. Changes follow SRCL’s planning, testing, technical review, and approval procedures; routine work may be performed under documented, preapproved procedures and delegated authority. After an initial supervised training period, the engineer is expected to independently own assigned operational responsibilities. Direct production access and delegated authority expand as technical competence, business familiarity, sound judgment, and adherence to security and change-control requirements are demonstrated.
