Offer description

Overview

Join a High-Growth Global Fintech as a Senior or Principal DevOps Engineer. Location: Hybrid or Remote | Type: Full-time | Level: Senior / Principal.

We are working with a high-growth global fintech, renowned for delivering world-class payments-related software and technology. As they expand their merchant-first ecosystem, they’re looking for experienced, curious, and accountable engineers to scale DevOps with clarity, precision, and purpose.

This is a role to design, build, and own the next generation of CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation, and deployment tooling that power complex hybrid infrastructure across both on-prem and multi-cloud platforms.


What You’ll Do

* Architect and implement scalable CI/CD pipelines with IaC at their core
* Standardize and evolve a DevOps toolchain (Terraform, Ansible, Jenkins, GitLab, Artifactory, Docker, etc.)
* Drive automation, eliminate manual steps, and embed security and quality into every deployment
* Provide hands-on technical leadership (especially at the Principal level)—mentoring, whiteboarding, and influencing cross-functional delivery
* Shape DevOps practices in a hybrid environment (on-prem + cloud) with real-world constraints and enterprise complexity
* Troubleshoot systems across application and platform layers and ensure secure, reliable release pipelines


What We’re Looking For

This team isn’t hiring job titles—they’re looking for real-world, deep DevOps experience:

6+ years (Senior) / 8+ years (Principal) in DevOps, with a strong grasp of the full delivery lifecycle

Proven use of Terraform, Ansible, Docker, and CI/CD tooling in production—beyond tutorials and basic scripts

Experience in hybrid environments (not just cloud-native)—you’ve automated for both on-prem and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP)

Track record of owning delivery, not just executing tickets—especially critical at the Principal level

Strong communication skills—you can diagram systems, explain decisions, and collaborate across technical and non-technical teams

You think like a systems engineer—structured, thoughtful, and always pushing for better ways to build and ship software


Bonus Points If You Have

* Experience with configuration and orchestration tools (Packer, Chef, Puppet, Rundeck)
* Hands-on knowledge of monitoring stacks (Elastic, Splunk)
* Familiarity with networking, security, and release governance in enterprise environments


Why Join

* Autonomy with purpose – This fintech is outcome-driven, not process-bound. You’ll have real ownership and the freedom to innovate within small, empowered teams.
* Grow your craft – Explore new tools and techniques, learn from seasoned engineers, and mentor others along the way.
* Solve real-world problems – You’ll be building critical systems and tools to deliver value in a demanding enterprise-grade environment.

Apply now and help shape the future of DevOps with a fintech that’s redefining global payments.
