- Business group: Cloud Engineering – Team is undertaking a critical modernization initiative to build an enterprise-wide cloud platform on Google Cloud. This platform will leverage Kubernetes infrastructure as code to enable scalable, secure, and automated infrastructure. A key focus is creating a seamless CI/CD experience that reduces developer friction, enhances productivity, and enables robust self-service capabilities.
- Project: We are building a next-generation cloud platform on GCP, designed to support enterprise-scale workloads with modern DevOps practices. This role will focus on designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines that empower developers with intuitive, self-serve deployment capabilities. To meet our ambitious timelines and quality standards, we are expanding our team with skilled engineers who thrive in fast-paced, collaborative environments.
- As part of this initiative, you’ll work on a high-impact project that integrates cutting-edge technologies including Kubernetes, GCP, GitHub, GitHub Actions, and Argo CD. You’ll gain hands-on experience with enterprise-grade CI/CD tooling and contribute to building a secure, scalable platform—skills that are highly transferable across financial institutions and the broader tech industry. This is a unique opportunity to elevate your technical profile while shaping the future of cloud engineering at scale.
