Job description

The Wallet, Payments and Commerce (WPC) Cloud Engineering team is looking for an experienced Senior Cloud Engineer to take ownership of complex, ambiguous problems and drive cross-functional solutions that scale with our growth. In this role you'll independently lead significant pieces of our cloud platform, set technical direction on project teams, and raise the bar on quality, security, and customer focus across the organization. 8+ years of Cloud infrastructure and platform engineering experience, with a track record of owning systems end-to-end in production. Experience building platforms, Microservices and distributed systems … Experience building APIs on Kubernetes using frameworks such as gRPC, or REST. Kubernetes and Containers… Been there, done that, and now you're the person others come to when the cluster is on fire. You've owned multi-tenant, multi-cluster, multi-region footprints end-to-end. Infrastructure as Code, with deep Crossplane and Terraform experience… You've designed composition and provider patterns at scale, not just consumed them. The console is for read-only. Public cloud expertise … You know which services to use, when to use them, and — just as importantly — when not to. GitOps and CI/CD with Flux, Jenkins, Kargo… Everything ships through pipelines, promotion is declarative, and rollback is a non-event. Strong networking fundamentals (NATs, TCP/IP, DNS, load balancing, mTLS). Linux internals and systems-level troubleshooting… When the symptom is "it's slow sometimes," you know how to find the actual cause. Experience with Observability stacks (Prometheus, Thanos, Grafana, Datadog). 10+ years of work experience is highly desirable. Strong programming proficiency in Golang and Kuberentes Operator pattern Public Cloud expertise in AWS or AliCloud Experience with service meshes (Istio Ambient mode, Cilium) Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers, drive technical direction across a project team, and align solutions with business objectives in ambiguous, cross-functional environments and engage with senior leadership. Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or a related field
