We are currently seeking a Platform Engineer with proven expertise in developing and managing internal developer platforms (IDPs) within the GCP space. The ideal candidate will apply a Platform as a Product mindset to deliver robust, scalable, and self-service infrastructure that empowers our software engineers.

We are looking for a strong engineer with a proven track record in building toolchains and golden paths that accelerate application delivery and ensure compliance by default. You are ideally passionate about Internal Developer Platforms, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), CI/CD pipelines, security and governance-by-default, and measuring ROI and platform adoption. You are an experienced engineer who excels at reducing friction for application teams, designing seamless developer experiences, and fostering strong collaboration with software engineers and architects to understand their needs.

We aim to deliver a world class payment orchestration platform implemented in GCP and having guaranteed SLAs higher than 99.95%. Endless horizontal scalability, resilience, and secure operations are the name of the game. At the application level we use Go and Java on Kubernetes, and we have a strong preference for managed native services.

• Hands-on experience designing and implementing platform observability (log management, diagnostics, metrics, capacity management)

• Strong scripting/automation abilities (Bash, and experience with a structured language like Go or Python for tooling)

• Strong expertise in GCP and knowledge about utilization of managed services within GCP

• Hands-on experience designing and securing environments for sensitive data (i.e. within PCI-DSS)

• Demonstrated experience working with GitOps tools like GitHub, GitHub Actions, and ArgoCD

• Knowledge of Helm charting and CI pipelines for multi-language applications (Go, Java, PHP) is a plus

• You are eager to bring your unique talents and authenticity to the CellPoint Digital community.

• You're constantly curious and a lifetime learner.

• You have excellent communication and relationship-building skills.

• You enjoy leading and supporting cross-functional initiatives and projects in a team where you are empowered and accountable.
