Build infrastructure that stops fraud at scale.

At SurePay, we process billions of real-time payments across Europe. Keeping transactions safe, secure, and going to the right person. Trusted by 200+ banks and 300+ corporates, we’re expanding fast, and our infrastructure needs to keep up.

That’s where you come in.

As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you’ll be a key player in designing, maintaining, and scaling our cloud-native platform. You’ll lead infrastructure automation, enhance observability, and enforce security standards while mentoring others and shaping our DevOps culture.

We’re AWS-native (90%), containerised (EKS/K8s/ECS), and manage everything as code. This isn’t just support work, it’s a chance to architect solutions, own systems, and drive change in a production-critical environment.

• Design and maintain high-availability infrastructure in AWS using Terraform, CloudFormation, EKS, and ECS
• Build and optimise CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and deployment automation tools
• Implement secure, reproducible environments using Docker, Helm, and hardened AMIs/images
• Lead incident response and own root cause analysis for production issues
• Enhance our observability stack (ElasticSearch, Grafana, OpenSearch) to support proactive monitoring
• Champion security and compliance patch management, IAM policies, OS hardening, audit trails
• Collaborate with engineers, product teams, and SREs to ensure operational excellence
• Mentor junior/mid-level DevOps engineers and contribute to internal tooling and standards
• IaC: Terraform, CloudFormation
• CI/CD: GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Bash/Python scripting
• Languages: Working knowledge of Java (nice-to-have for debugging services)

• 5+ years’ experience as a DevOps Engineer, Platform Engineer, or SRE
• Deep hands-on expertise with AWS and container orchestration (EKS, ECS) in production environments
• Strong automation mindset (you never do the same thing twice manually)
• Proven experience securing infrastructure and enforcing operational best practices
• Experience with distributed systems, microservices, and network-level debugging
• You document what you build, love a clean repo, and think in Git
• You’re comfortable being on-call or leading incident retros (you own what you ship)

• 8% holiday allowance + 8% personal benefits budget (cash, training, or time off — it’s up to you)
• Competitive salary with room to grow
• 25 holiday days + flexible hours + hybrid working
• MacBook Pro, iPhone, and all the gear you need
• Pension plan
• A DevOps culture that actually believes in automation, ownership, and clean delivery
• A fast-moving scale-up environment where you can have real architectural impact
• A team of 100+ across 40+ nationalities, united by curiosity and code
• Regular team meetups, offsites, and Friday drinks

We’re scaling fast. Our fraud prevention platform is expanding across Europe, and we’re building new products, services, and capabilities all of which require scalable, secure, and bulletproof infrastructure.

If you want to solve real-world challenges at scale, lead technical decisions, and ship reliable systems in a purpose-driven team… we’d love to hear from you.
