Role & Responsibilities

• Be the architect of automation build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that empower rapid and reliable releases.
• Scale cloud infrastructure across AWS services with performance, cost, and reliability in mind.
• Design resilient systems to ensure our fintech stack is always-on, always-secure, and always-fast.
• Drive observability by implementing real-time monitoring, alerting, and logging (think Grafana, Prometheus, ELK, etc.)
• Work closely with backend and platform teams to roll out containerized workloads, microservices, and infrastructure-as-code.
• Own cloud security, infrastructure compliance, and audits as we scale towards millions of users.
• Solve real-world problems — infra bottlenecks, deployment issues, rollbacks, failovers, and more — before they even happen.

What We're Looking For

• 1 to 3 years of hands-on experience in DevOps/SRE or Cloud Infrastructure roles.
• Strong working knowledge of AWS – EC2, VPC, IAM, ALB/NLB, RDS, S3, CloudWatch, Route53, etc.
• Experience working with Docker, Kubernetes (preferably EKS), and containerized workloads.
• Solid skills in Terraform or similar IaC tools — you don't click, you code.
• Hands-on with CI/CD tools like GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, Jenkins, etc.
• Comfortable with scripting (Bash, Python, Go — whatever gets the job done).
• Prior experience working in high-availability, distributed systems is a big plus.
• A keen eye for cost optimization, security best practices, and performance tuning.
• Bonus: Experience in fintech, or building infra for real-time payment systems.

You'll Thrive Here If You

• Think like a builder – don't wait for problems, you engineer solutions proactively.
• Crave velocity with stability – rapid experimentation backed by fail-safe systems.
• Are obsessed with automation – manual tasks annoy you (and you do something about it).
• Believe that infra is a product – and your users are developers who deserve the best.
• Love to work in lean teams, take full ownership, and make meaningful impact every sprint.
• Are comfortable with ambiguity and excited by high-growth chaos.
