Description

Paymentology is the first truly global issuer-processor, giving banks and fintechs the technology, team and experience to rapidly issue and process Mastercard, Visa and UnionPay cards across more than 50 countries, at scale.

Our advanced, multi-cloud platform, offering both shared and dedicated processing instances, vast global presence and richer, real-time data, set us apart as the leader in payments.

As a DevOps Engineer at Paymentology, you will be working closely with the entire Technical Team to build enterprise-level, highly scalable, highly secure financial processing systems. Our systems power tens of millions of transactions and tie them to web, mobile and API interfaces so that it is easy for people to issue, redeem and reconcile prepaid cards all over the world.

This position requires in-depth knowledge of Terraform, Kubernetes and Gitlab, as well as best practices for application deployment and cloud computing (either AWS or Azure). You will need to communicate about architectural trade-offs and design options, so that Paymentology can make informed decisions.

You will work closely with our product owners, application engineers and the Security Team to identify and implement process improvements on the deployment, security and self-service nature of our infrastructure. You will also need to drive these ideas and projects from inception to completion.

Be part of improving our solutions through:

  • Design, architecture and support pipelines for deploying cloud infrastructure
  • Using DevOps principles to improve the flow of application change through to cloud environments
  • Deploying computational workloads and pipelines on Kubernetes
  • Preparing and delivering technical presentations that explain products or services to clients
  • Providing hands-on subject matter expertise and ensuring that the tooling to deploy and manage our infrastructure is automated, secure and easy for our developers to use
  • Participating in the identification and evaluation of new technologies and development of new services
  • Supporting the core infrastructure for our existing test and production environments
  • Participating in a 24x7 on-call rotation to assist other engineers in quickly debugging and resolving production related issues
  • Identifying and collecting metrics that allow the Product Development Team to pinpoint areas for improvement and measure change



What you can look forward to::

At Paymentology we value making a difference to the lives of the people who work for us and who live in the communities where we operate. You can look forward to working with a diverse, global team where Paymentologists at all levels play an important part in our global mission to advance the world through payments and make a difference on a global scale.
