We Work Remotely
We’re looking for an experienced Software/Infrastructure Engineer to lead our Development Tooling team at Payoneer Merchant Services, supporting our other Engineering teams as they build and deploy software services.

We’re a distributed team, hiring people to work from home around the world.
We’re currently in the process of building out our distributed hiring operations, so we don’t have a definitive list of all countries we can hire in yet, but we’re looking across the range of UTC-5 to +5, and have current team members in Russia, India, USA, Albania, UK, Germany and more!

  • Experience working with SaaS infrastructure and automations on public-cloud services in highly-available environments
  • Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible.

  • Provide technical leadership and direction to the Development Tooling team
  • Collaborate with Product Engineering teams to help them build, deploy, and run, high-quality reliable and performant software
  • Collaborate with our Platform Engineering team to provide good internal developer experience
  • Participate in the identification, evaluation, deployment and operation of new technologies and tools and services
  • Learn new things and help us learn new things too

WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE


These aren’t requirements, just things we think would be particularly valuable. If anything or everything here doesn’t apply to you, please don’t let that put you off applying:

  • You have experience with our toolchain (this is not a requirement - if your background is AWS instead of GCP, or you don’t know Java, that's not a problem)
  • You’ve read Accelerate, Site Reliability Engineering and/or The DevOps Handbook
  • You’ve worked in internationally distributed teams
