We're building a company at the intersection of payments infrastructure and data products — combining transaction execution with structured financial data that is enriched, explainable, and ready for both operational and AI-driven workflows.
What You'll Be Working On
- You'll own the company's full technical direction: architecture, reliability, delivery, infrastructure, and the people who make it happen.
- Define and drive architectural strategy, introducing clear engineering governance — RFCs, tech radar, vendor evaluation, and practical risk management — without unnecessary bureaucracy.
- Lead the evolution of a high-load, event-driven platform with a focus on scalability, resilience, and fault isolation.
- Own reliability and incident management: observability, SRE practices, incident response, and postmortem culture — with a goal of better uptime, faster detection, and fewer repeated issues.
- Oversee engineering hiring, performance, and development of tech leads; build a culture of end-to-end ownership and accountability.
- Manage cybersecurity protocols, disaster recovery, and business continuity in collaboration with DevOps.
- Drive infrastructure efficiency, cost control, and continuous performance improvement through centralized observability and clear ownership.
- Act as a bridge between engineering teams and executive stakeholders, ensuring technical decisions align with business goals.
- Champion automation, AI integration, and engineering process optimization.
- Design APIs and integration strategies; establish coding, architectural, and infrastructure standards.

- Solid understanding of DevOps, CI/CD, SRE, and incident management at scale.
- Comprehensive technical background across architecture, cloud platforms, security, and distributed systems, with a focus on scalability, reliability, and strategic technology leadership.
