As a leader in travel and expense solutions, we are creating a future where technology drives business value and inspires extraordinary results. Our AI-powered platform helps organizations modernize financial operations, increase visibility, and optimize spend across the enterprise.

Build and scale AWS infrastructure with Terraform (modules, workspaces, state management, automated pipelines).

Design and automate CI/CD workflows using GitHub Actions and ArgoCD, creating reusable pipelines and standardizing release practices.

Operate Kubernetes clusters at scale (EKS, AKS, GKE) — deploying services, troubleshooting, and maintaining system health.

Implement resilience and reliability features such as autoscaling, load balancing, observability, monitoring, and alerting.

Drive incident response and prevention: participate in on-call rotations, run post-incident reviews, and continuously improve stability.

Mentor teammates on cloud automation and platform engineering best practices.

Collaborate across the engineering lifecycle: provide feedback in design/code reviews, document key decisions, and engage with stakeholders.

Own and resolve complex cross-domain issues spanning infrastructure, networking, databases, and application code.

7+ years in platform engineering, site reliability, or DevOps roles.

AWS proficiency: IAM, EKS, Route53, S3, SQS, EC2, and related services.

Kubernetes expertise: deploying, scaling, and troubleshooting workloads.

Terraform expertise: infrastructure as code, reusable modules, workspaces, state migration.

Strong experience implementing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions and ArgoCD.

Proficiency with Linux, networking, and systems architecture.

Hands-on experience with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).

Proficiency with Git and modern software development workflows.

Certifications: AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate, Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA).

Experience with Ansible (playbooks, roles).

Multi-cloud exposure (Azure, GCP).

Experience running self-hosted GitHub ARC runners in Kubernetes.

Familiarity with platform-as-a-product practices.

Excellent written and spoken English.
