About the Role

We’re looking for a skilled DevOps Engineer to join our client's Payment Orchestration team and help them build, deploy, and scale a high-performance global payments infrastructure.
You’ll play a key role in ensuring their multi-cloud platform (AWS and Google Cloud) runs seamlessly, supporting Java-based microservices that handle millions of payment transactions securely and reliably.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain scalable, secure, and highly available infrastructure on AWS and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
• Collaborate closely with software engineers to automate CI/CD pipelines for Java-based services and APIs.
• Implement and manage Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using tools such as Terraform or CloudFormation.
• Monitor system health and performance using observability tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, Stackdriver).
• Drive continuous improvements in system reliability, fault tolerance, and disaster recovery processes.
• Ensure compliance and security best practices across all environments, including PCI DSS requirements for payment data.
• Contribute to performance tuning and optimization of Java-based applications and services.
• Manage containerized workloads using Docker and Kubernetes (EKS/GKE).
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Product, Security, Engineering) to enhance deployment workflows and incident response.

Requirements

• 3–5+ years of hands-on experience as a DevOps Engineer, Site Reliability Engineer, or in a similar role.
• Strong proficiency in AWS (ECS, EKS, Lambda, CloudFormation) and/or GCP (GKE, Cloud Build, Cloud Run).
• Experience building CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitLab CI, or GitHub Actions.
• Solid understanding of Java-based microservices and the JVM ecosystem.
• Skilled in scripting and automation (Python, Bash, or Groovy).
• Familiarity with Kubernetes, Docker, and container orchestration best practices.
• Experience with IaC tools (Terraform preferred).
• Working knowledge of payment systems or PCI compliance is a plus.
• Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills in a fast-paced, agile environment.

Nice-to-Have

• Experience with observability stacks (Grafana, Loki, Prometheus, ELK).
• Exposure to payment orchestration, transaction routing, or fintech environments.
• Knowledge of message queues and event-driven architectures (Kafka, RabbitMQ, Pub/Sub).
• AWS or GCP certifications.

You’ll be part of a team powering next-generation payment orchestration, enabling merchants, PSPs, and fintechs to connect seamlessly to global payment networks. Expect a collaborative culture, a modern technology stack, and the opportunity to shape systems that process real-world payments at scale, all while working from Spain, Cyprus, or Malta.
