Platform Engineer

This position is posted by Jobgether on behalf of a partner company. We are currently looking for a Platform Engineer in Mexico.

As a Platform Engineer, you will own the infrastructure that powers the next generation of financial connectivity for SMEs across Europe. This is a high-impact role where you will bridge the gap between regulated financial infrastructure and modern software engineering, moving beyond mere maintenance to actively designing systems from scratch. You will work in a "distributed-first" environment, collaborating with a world-class team to build CI/CD pipelines, cloud systems, and AI integrations that enhance the developer experience. Your mission is to remove technical bottlenecks and raise the bar for security and observability in a fast-scaling fintech ecosystem. This is a unique opportunity for a pragmatic problem-solver to have a direct say in how software is built and delivered globally.

• Infrastructure Orchestration: Architect and manage robust cloud infrastructure utilizing AWS and Kubernetes to ensure high availability and scalability of financial services.

• Developer Experience & Tooling: Build and continuously improve CI/CD pipelines, internal platforms, and developer tools to streamline the path from code to production.

• System Ownership: Own production systems end-to-end, taking responsibility for everything from initial design decisions to proactive incident response and resolution.

• Cross-Functional Partnership: Partner with product and business teams to identify technical friction points and implement solutions that allow the organization to ship features faster.

• Standards & Security: Evaluate and integrate new services while maintaining rigorous engineering standards for security, observability, and system reliability.

Requirements:

• Technical Proficiency: Hands-on experience with cloud platforms and container orchestration, specifically using tools like Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and AWS.

• Coding Standards: Ability to write clean, maintainable code; while the stack primarily uses Kotlin and TypeScript, a strong foundational command of software engineering principles is essential.

• Pragmatic Problem Solving: A focus on finding the simplest, most effective solutions to complex problems rather than the most "impressive" or over-engineered ones.

• Communication Skills: Excellent ability to explain complex technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders and collaborate seamlessly across distributed teams.

• Growth Mindset: A strong desire to stretch your capabilities beyond a repetitive daily routine and a track record of driving projects from initial idea to full production.

• Experience (Bonus): Previous exposure to financial services, payment systems, or regulated environments, as well as experience managing microservices on the JVM runtime.

Benefits:

• Remote-First Flexibility: A truly "distributed-first" culture that allows you to work productively from your preferred location in India.

• Modern Tooling: Access to premium hardware and software to ensure maximum productivity, including MacOS and advanced AI coding assistants like Claude Code.

• Work-Life Balance: Generous time off with 30 days of annual leave to ensure you stay refreshed and energized.

• Financial Upside: Meaningful equity opportunities that allow you to share in the long-term success and growth of the company.

• Supportive Setup: A dedicated home office stipend to help you create an ergonomic and efficient remote workspace.

• Inclusive Culture: An open-minded and transparent environment featuring regular All-Hands meetings, "Brown Bag" lunches, and team offsites.
