Job Description
About Us
Are you ready to shape the financial future of a rapidly growing fintech that's transforming lives across Southeast Asia and beyond?
We're not your typical company — we're a rocketship! At FINN, established in 2022 by experienced serial founders, we're on a mission to transform financial well-being for underbanked employees. Our product provides early wage access, financial education, budgeting tools, part-time job opportunities, and micro-insurances. We've hit product-market fit and are scaling aggressively across multiple markets.
The Role
We're looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to join our small, growing Platform team and help scale our infrastructure across multiple markets. This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you'll own critical cloud infrastructure serving hundreds of thousands of users across Southeast Asia and Africa.
You'll be part of the Platform squad — responsible for platform-level infrastructure, shared services, observability, and security tooling. We're in the middle of a major infrastructure maturity push: closing IaC gaps, hardening CI/CD, improving observability, and preparing our platform for rapid expansion across multiple markets in Southeast Asia and Africa.
This isn't a role where you maintain dashboards. You'll architect, build, and operate the infrastructure that powers a high-growth fintech with high-throughput production systems.
What You'll Do
- Own and operate cloud infrastructure — compute, networking, identity, and security controls — using Infrastructure-as-Code
- Manage container orchestration workloads, including cluster upgrades, deployment management, and autoscaling
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines — automated testing, deployment automation, and quality gates
- Drive observability — implement and improve monitoring, alerting, logging, and tracing across all services
- Harden security posture — cloud security posture management, automated scanning in CI, access policies, network security, and contributing toward industry security certifications
- Manage multi-cloud infrastructure — we run workloads across multiple cloud providers
- Operate messaging infrastructure — event-driven architectures, including retry strategies and dead-letter queue management
- Standardize market launches — build repeatable infrastructure provisioning so new markets can go live in days, not weeks
- Support the engineering team — be the go-to person for infrastructure questions, unblock developers, and create self-service tooling
- Participate in on-call rotation — respond to production incidents and drive root-cause analysis and prevention
