We need to sustain this growth by continuously iterating on the services we run, with a focus on availability, security, and ease of use. We’re looking for an engineer with relevant experience who can analyse complex requirements and deliver simple solutions to help our teams achieve our mission with speed and confidence.

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand project requirements and deliver effective outcomes.

What do you need?

  • Experience designing, building, and deploying scalable cloud-based solution architectures, preferably on AWS and/or GCP
  • Experience with IaC and automating infrastructure provisioning, developer operations, or continuous integration/deployment.
  • Strong knowledge of Golang and/or Python
  • Proficient in written and verbal communication skills with the ability to articulate concepts to users and stakeholders, as well as facilitate cross-team collaboration.

Nice to have

  • Understanding of Kubernetes operator pattern
  • Experience with networking within the cloud.
  • Experience with one or more observability platforms.
  • Knowledge of the financial services industry and/or other regulated industries.

You get back
