Devops Engineer

[About the role]

We are looking for a Senior DevOps / Platform Engineer to own the end-to-end cloud infrastructure, reliability, security, and CI/CD platforms for our platform products. This is a high-ownership, hands-on role responsible for building and operating production-grade infrastructure that supports high availability, regulatory compliance, scalability, and cost efficiency. You will act as the platform backbone for fast-moving product and engineering teams.

[Key Responsibilities]

Infrastructure & Platform

Design, deploy, and operate cloud-native infrastructure on AWS or Azure

Own Kubernetes-based microservices infrastructure across environments (prod, staging, dev)

Define infra standards, environments, networking, and release guardrails

Manage databases, caches, queues, and supporting infra from a platform perspective

Reliability & Availability

Define and enforce SLOs / SLAs for critical user and payment flows

Build for high availability, auto-scaling, and fault tolerance

Implement zero-downtime deployments and safe rollout strategies

Own incident response, postmortems (RCA), and preventive action plans

Plan capacity and scaling for traffic spikes and seasonal peaks

CI/CD & Release Engineering

Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for backend, frontend, and mobile applications

Standardize deployment pipelines with rollback, approvals, and auditability

Enable faster, safer releases without compromising reliability

Observability & Monitoring

Own the observability stack across services and infrastructure

Implement monitoring for:

Latency, throughput, error rates

Infrastructure health

Payment and checkout flows

Define alerting strategies aligned with business impact, not noise

Security & Compliance

Own platform-level security posture and compliance readiness

Implement and manage:

Secrets management and key rotation

IAM, RBAC, and least-privilege access

Network security, TLS, WAFs, and audit logging

Partner with security/compliance stakeholders during audits and reviews

Ensure infrastructure is audit-ready (logs, access trails, change history)

Cost & Efficiency

Monitor and optimize cloud costs across environments

Design infra with cost-efficiency in mind without sacrificing reliability

Provide visibility into infra usage and cost drivers

[Required Experience]

4+ years of experience in DevOps / SRE / Platform Engineering

Hands-on experience running production-grade Kubernetes workloads

Experience supporting high-availability, high-throughput systems

Strong understanding of microservices infrastructure

Experience working with fintech, payments, or transaction-heavy systems

Proven ownership of uptime, reliability, and incident management

Expected Tech Exposure

Cloud: AWS or Azure

Containers: Docker, Kubernetes

CI/CD: GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Fastlane

Infrastructure as Code: Terraform / ARM / Pulumi

Databases & Caches: PostgreSQL, Redis

Messaging: Kafka / Event Hubs

Security: Vaults, SSL/TLS, key rotation, network policies

Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, Azure Monitor, Sentry

Good-to-Have

Experience with UPI, wallets, payment gateways, or banking systems

Exposure to multi-cloud or hybrid environments

Familiarity with compliance standards (PCI-DSS, SOC-style controls, audit workflows)

Experience defining SLOs, error budgets, and release safety mechanisms

You’ll Be Successful If

You think in systems, reliability, and failure scenarios

You proactively prevent outages, not just react to them

You enjoy owning infrastructure end-to-end, not just tooling

You build platforms that enable product teams to move fast, safely

You’re comfortable being accountable for uptime, security, and scale
