ENVIRONMENT

A DevOps Engineer with a security-first mindset who is passionate about building scalable, reliable systems is wanted to join the team of a cutting-edge global FinTech company committed to delivering funding products to small-to-medium sized businesses. This is a role for someone who takes genuine ownership — running projects end to end and delivering meaningful improvements to our infrastructure, tooling, and engineering maturity. The successful incumbent must possess a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science/Software Engineer or similar field with a minimum of 3-5 years’ experience in DevOps, Platform, or Infrastructure Engineering including ands-on experience with AWS across serverless and containerised workloads (including Docker), e.g. Lambda, ECS, and API Gateway.

DUTIES

·        Provision and manage AWS infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform), designing containerised and serverless architectures (Lambda, ECS, API Gateway) across multi-account environments that scale with traffic and a growing team.

Reliability & Security -

·        Implement and maintain monitoring, logging, and alerting (e.g. CloudWatch, New Relic), and troubleshooting issues across infrastructure, deployments, and application performance.

·        Apply a security-first approach — secure defaults, least privilege, threat-aware thinking — and work with cloud security and scanning tooling (Cloudflare, Aikido) to strengthen the platform’s posture.

·        Be available on call during peak or product launch periods when required.

Platform, Collaboration & Ownership -

·        Provide day-to-day operations and infrastructure support and build internal tooling and platform capabilities to Support Engineers as the team grows.

·        Administer third-party service-provider instances and integrations (e.g. Zoho CRM, Slack, n8n) and endpoint/identity tooling (Microsoft Entra ID, Intune) where they intersect with developer experience and security.

·        Take ownership of DevOps and security projects, running them end to end, while guiding Engineers and championing an AI-forward approach to raise productivity and quality.

·        Document processes, procedures, and configurations to ensure consistency and repeatability.
