About the role

Senior Software Engineer, Infrastructure (Citizen Dev) at Airwallex focusing on building and operating the internal platform for citizen developers, with emphasis on developer experience, security, governance, and scalable workflow infrastructure.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and evolve the citizen-developer platform and tools that make it easier to create and operate automations and applications.
  • Establish secure software development lifecycle practices and guardrails so security, compliance, and engineering best practices are built in by default.
  • Build self-serve development and operations tooling that helps teams move faster while reducing dependence on central platform engineers.
  • Design, build, and maintain Temporal-based workflow infrastructure, solving for multi-tenancy, high availability, reliability, and cost effectiveness.
  • Strengthen the Kubernetes and GitOps foundation, including ArgoCD, Helm, and Terraform, so deployments are safe, repeatable, and auditable.
  • Partner with application teams and citizen developers to define clear tooling, patterns, APIs, contracts, and development processes.
  • Lead incident response for workflow-related services and drive long-term fixes through code reviews, technical design discussions, and on-call support.
  • Document standards, best practices, and reference architectures so teams building on the platform have clear, self-serve guidance.

Qualifications

  • 6+ years of experience in software or platform engineering, building and operating backend or platform services in production.
  • Strong hands-on experience with at least one strongly typed backend language, such as Golang or Java, and familiarity with Python or Bash for tooling and automation.
  • Experience designing and building internal platforms or developer tooling used by multiple teams, with a strong focus on developer experience.
  • Experience with Kubernetes and GitOps practices and tooling, ideally including ArgoCD and Terraform.
  • Experience working in highly collaborative, multi-team environments, translating platform constraints into clear APIs, contracts, and paved paths for application teams and citizen developers.
  • A practical, proactive approach to problem-solving, with the ability to navigate ambiguity, break down complex technical problems, and drive them to closure.
