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

- 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

- Background on infrastructure teams at large cloud, trading or consumer technology companies.
