  But the world is changing, fast. And we're changing too. It's never been a more exciting time to join us as we transform our business to shape finance as a force for good.

  Our team

  We are modernising with cloud, a platform that is quick, secure and resilient for customers and easy, modern and green for developers.

  Our core technology focus is on Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform.

  The Public Cloud Services Lab delivers centrally managed, secure and scalable cloud services across Azure and GCP. We focus on engineering excellence, automation and AI‑driven efficiency to provide clear, ready‑to‑consume platforms that make it easy for teams to onboard and run critical workloads.

  • Design, build and operate platform capabilities using Infrastructure‑as‑Code and modern CI/CD, partner with architecture and feature teams to evolve our cloud roadmap and platform products.
  • Embed a secure‑by‑design mindset and controls from design to runtime, safeguarding colleagues and customers.
  • Define and operate against SLOs/SLIs; implement actionable observability, performance tuning and automation to reduce toil.
  • Enable API‑first delivery with reusable patterns and golden paths for API producers/consumers; contribute to documentation and enablement.
  • Mentor engineers and contribute to communities of practice, upholding Platform Engineering standards expected as a Senior Engineer.

  • API design and security (REST/OpenAPI, authN/Z, mTLS and certificate lifecycle).
  • Scripting in Bash, PowerShell or Python.
