Software Engineer, Infrastructure (Junior)

About the Role

Glomo builds fast, secure, borderless payment products. Its real-time cross-border network connects local payment rails across countries, and it is the first IFSCA-authorised Payment Service Provider of its kind in India.

As an Infrastructure Engineer you work on the platform every payment runs on: GCP and Kubernetes, kept available, secure and compliant. A failed deploy or a slow database is a failed payment.

What You Will Do

• Run the cloud platform - build and operate GCP environments (production and sandbox) as infrastructure as code
• Kubernetes - operate GKE clusters, deploy pipelines, autoscaling and rollouts for the Rails monolith, Sidekiq workers and supporting services
• Data - operate PostgreSQL (AlloyDB) and Redis: replication, read replicas, backups, point-in-time recovery, upgrades, tuning
• Reliability - disaster recovery and failover, SLOs, alerts, runbooks, incident response
• Observability - metrics, logs and traces
• CI/CD - many deploys a day with zero downtime
• Security - network design, IAM, secrets management, access control; PCI-DSS and regulator audits
• Cost - measure and reduce cloud spend

What You Will Bring

• 2-3 years operating production systems with real traffic, preferably in payments or fintech
• Hands-on GCP (GKE, VPC, IAM, Cloud SQL/AlloyDB, Load Balancing); deep AWS also counts
• Kubernetes in production: Helm, autoscalers, resource limits, safe rollouts
• PostgreSQL operations: replication, failover, backups, vacuum, index and query tuning
• Terraform or equivalent infrastructure as code
• Scripting in Bash, Python, Go or Ruby
• CI/CD pipelines for trunk-based development
• Security by default: least privilege, encryption, secrets management
• Ownership from design to on-call

Good to Have

• PCI-DSS, SOC 2 or financial regulator audits
• OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana
• Redis, Teleport or other zero-trust access tools
• Rails and Sidekiq in production
• DR drills and chaos tests
