Senior Platform Engineer

seQura provides innovative, flexible and easy-to-use payment technologies that help merchants acquire, convert and retain more customers.

We make a difference in sales performance by tailoring our solutions to different sectors, to address their unique pain points and deliver superior results in Retail, Education, Eyewear, Repairs and Travel.

We also empower smart shopping to consumers who seek more value, convenience, and flexibility in their shopping, with new payment experiences that allow them to save, access interest-free credit, or pay in small, comfortable installments of up to 24 months.

Born in Barcelona, seQura is a privately-owned fintech, currently expanding throughout southern Europe and Latin America, growing above 50% CAGR.
Over 6000 businesses, almost 3 million shoppers, and almost 400 employees continue to rate us as one of the most loved and trusted fintechs out there, with an NPS of 87%, a Trustpilot rating of 4.7/5, and a Glassdoor rating of 4.1/5.

We're looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to join our Platform team and help us build the platform that lets every engineer at seQura ship safely, quickly, and on their own.

seQura is expanding into new international markets, and the platform has to grow with it without growing its cost at the same pace. At the same time, AI is changing how infrastructure is built and run. We already put AI agents to work on our everyday platform work, from reviewing infrastructure changes and explaining plans to helping engineers resolve incidents on their own. Our goal is to go much further: independent agents working across the whole scope of the platform, with engineers who decide what matters and own the outcome.

You'll work in a cloud-native AWS environment, in a regulated fintech, where security, compliance, and reliability are part of the product we offer to the rest of engineering.

To empower engineers with secure, efficient, and compliant infrastructure, while continuously improving through automation and collaboration.

• Our multi-account AWS foundation and the Kubernetes (EKS) clusters where seQura's products run

• We're enablers: internal teams are our customers, and we measure success by how much they can do without us

• We're autonomous end-to-end: we code, deploy, observe, improve, and document what we build

• Everything as code, everything through a pull request, everything reviewed, and every important decision written down in an ADR

• Strong opinions, held weakly; collaborators over rock stars; blameless by default

• We plan by quarter and choose initiatives by their impact on users and on the business

We work closely with every product engineering team, with Security, with the Data Platform team, and with Compliance.

You'll join initiatives the team already has in motion, pairing with your teammates and shipping your first changes to production. You'll learn how we work, why we made the decisions we made, and what the rest of engineering expects from us.

By the end of the month: you've shipped to production and you know who to ask for what.

Month 2: Own your first mission 🎯

We'll hand you an opportunity the team has already identified, and it's yours: from the technical design to running it in production. You'll keep discovering seQura along the way, and we'll be there whenever you need context.
By the end of the month: you've delivered an initiative end-to-end and you have your own opinion on where the platform should go next.

Month 3: Shape what comes next 🚀

With more context, you'll be the one finding the opportunity. You'll talk with other teams to understand their friction, lead a cross-team initiative, and bring your own proposals to the planning of next quarter.

By the end of the month: part of next quarter's roadmap has your name on it.

• You've designed and operated highly available distributed systems in production, and you've lived through what happens when they fail: incidents, post-mortems, and the changes that made sure it didn't happen again

• Proven experience scaling infrastructure at a global scale

• Strong hands-on experience with AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform in production

• A product mindset: you put users and the business at the center of your decisions, and you can explain why one initiative matters more than another

• Hands-on experience working with AI agents in your daily engineering work

• Agency: you don't wait for a ticket. You spot the problem, decide it's worth solving, bring people along, and own it until it runs in production

• Professional proficiency in English, both written and spoken

• Experience in fintech, payments, or other regulated environments (PCI DSS, DORA, or similar)

• Experience with Terragrunt, Atlantis, or GitOps workflows

• Scripting or programming in Python, Go, or similar

• Experience with Prometheus, Grafana, the Elastic stack, or Tempo

• Experience building internal developer platforms or self-service tooling

• Experience building your own AI agents, skills, or automations for engineering teams

• Experience being part of an on-call rotation

• Spanish

AWS (multi-account), Kubernetes (EKS), Terragrunt, Atlantis, Helm, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, SOPS, Prometheus, Grafana, Thanos, Elastic, Tempo, Python, and AI coding agents such as Claude Code as part of our daily workflow.
