  • Boost developer productivity by improving tooling and shortening build-to-deploy cycles.

What You’ll Bring

  • Solid experience with CI / CD systems (e.g., GitHub Actions, CircleCI).
  • Comfortable with cloud pipeline platforms (Heroku a plus).
  • Skilled in Python and shell scripting (Django familiarity a bonus).
  • Hands-on with automated testing frameworks.
  • Familiar with observability and monitoring tools (e.g., Sentry).
  • Proven ability to deliver secure, reliable systems in SaaS or FinTech contexts.

    • Nice to Have

  • Experience with feature flagging tools (e.g., Unleash, LaunchDarkly).
  • Understanding of SOC 2 / ISO 27001 compliance in CI / CD pipelines.
  • Familiarity with data privacy in multi-tenant environments.
  • Experience running post-mortems and managing incident learnings.

    • What’s On Offer

  • Direct influence on reliability strategy in a high-growth SaaS environment.
  • Agile, low-bureaucracy culture with fast decision-making.
  • Meaningful work that helps power financial equity for global workforces.

The team is collaborative, diverse, and deeply technical, with a mix of accountants, engineers, and product experts. They move fast, believe in autonomy, and value quality without politics.
