Keep critical services reliable, correct and able to scale as usage grows significantly.

Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines and monitoring for production systems.

Design systems that combine many third-party vendors and understand how each component fits together.

Prioritize tests and engineering trade-offs sensibly in a fast-moving environment.

What We're Looking For At least 2 years of experience in distributed systems engineering.

Strong system design skills, with a deep and holistic view of complex multi-vendor architectures.

Experience with high data throughput workloads and some exposure to security.

A habit of reasoning from first principles rather than rigidly applying past solutions.

A strong sense of reliability and correctness under pressure.

High agency and autonomy, comfortable in a flat, hands-on team.

Comfortable using AI tools productively without depending on them.

No prior payments or fintech background is required.

Bonus Points Experience with fast scaling at a growth-stage company.
