As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will architect and maintain scalable, secure infrastructures for fintech and payment platforms, ensuring compliance with PCI‑DSS and ISO 27001 standards. You will collaborate closely with DevSecOps and compliance teams to embed security natively into the CI/CD pipelines while driving automation, reliability, and performance across AWS and Kubernetes environments. Your role will involve mentoring junior engineers, reviewing best practices, and continuously iterating on monitoring, alerting, and incident‑response frameworks to sustain high‑availability services. You will also engage in capacity planning, cost optimization, and governance to support the organization’s growth in a regulated payment ecosystem.
