About the Role 

We run cross-border payment infrastructure, money movement across multiple jurisdictions, on regulated rails, with real settlement deadlines. That means our platform has two non-negotiables: it stays up, and every change to it is explainable to an auditor six months later. 

You'll own the systems that make that possible: our EKS clusters, our Terraform/OpenTofu estate, our CI/CD pipelines, and our GitOps delivery path. This is a hands-on senior role. You will write code, not just review other people's. 

What You'll Do 

  • Own and evolve our Kubernetes platform on AWS EKS, workload isolation, autoscaling, resource governance, upgrade cycles, and the ingress/service-mesh layer. 

  • Extend our infrastructure-as-code estate in Terraform/OpenTofu, organised with Terraspace across multiple AWS accounts and regions. 

  • Build and maintain GitHub Actions pipelines that engineers actually want to use: fast, reproducible, with sensible caching and no flaky steps that people learn to re-run twice. 

  • Run continuous delivery through ArgoCD, app-of-apps structure, progressive rollout, drift detection, and a clean story for what's deployed where. 

  • Improve observability and on-call: meaningful SLOs, alerts that correspond to user pain, dashboards someone can read at 3am. 

  • Reduce toil. If a task is done manually more than twice, your instinct should be to automate it or delete the need for it. 

  • Partner with engineering squads on production readiness, capacity planning, and incident response — including blameless postmortems and follow-through on action items. 

  • Support our security and compliance posture (ISO 27001, regulatory audits): access controls, secrets management, evidence trails, change approval. 

What We're Looking For 

  • Kubernetes. Several years running production Kubernetes, ideally EKS. You understand scheduling, networking (CNI, services, ingress), RBAC, storage, and what actually happens during a node rotation. You've debugged something ugly at the kubelet or CNI level and can tell the story. 

  • AWS. Deep working knowledge of VPC design, IAM, EKS, RDS/Aurora, ElastiCache, S3, ALB/NLB, Route 53, CloudWatch, and cost management. Multi-account and multi-region experience is a strong plus. 

  • Infrastructure as Code. Fluent in Terraform and/or OpenTofu. module design, state management, drift handling, plan review discipline. Experience with Terraspace is a significant advantage; if you haven't used it, you should be able to explain why that layer exists at all. 

  • CI/CD with GitHub Actions. You've built non-trivial workflows: reusable workflows, composite actions, matrix builds, OIDC-based cloud auth, self-hosted runners, artifact and cache strategy. You treat pipeline code as real code. 

  • GitOps with ArgoCD. You've run declarative delivery in production, and you're comfortable with ApplicationSets, sync waves and hooks, health checks, drift handling, and the trade-offs between pull-based delivery and imperative deploys. 

  • Fluency in DevOps culture, not just DevOps tooling. You can hold your own in a conversation about SRE principles, error budgets, blameless postmortems, "you build it, you run it," toil, and shift-left security and you know when the idealism meets reality and needs to bend. We want someone who has both the vocabulary and the scar tissue.  

Nice to Have 

  • Experience in fintech, payments, or another regulated environment 

  • Node.js/TypeScript microservices at scale 

  • RabbitMQ, Redis, Aurora MySQL operations 

  • Observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Cloudwatch, Opensearch, or similar) 

  • Secrets management (AWS Secrets Manager, Vault, External Secrets Operator) 

  • Policy-as-code (OPA/Gatekeeper, Kyverno), supply-chain security, SAST/DAST integration 

  • Contributions to open-source infrastructure tooling
