LLMs help, but responsibility remains on our shoulders. Our main languages are JVM (Java or Kotlin) and Javascript/Typescript plus a lot of Python and other scripting.

• Experience with public cloud infrastructure (ideally AWS).

• Experience with edge security solutions, especially Cloudflare

• Any relevant certifications are a plus, e.g.: CISSP, CEH, OSWA, OSWE, etc

• Proficiency in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or equivalent.

• Familiarity with the FinTech environment and/or the cryptocurrency domain is a strong plus.

• Analytical thinking, highly organised mind. We don't have the capacity to micromanage, we need to rely on your abilities.

• Strong ability to prioritise and choose your battles. Our security imperfections need to be carefully evaluated and their solution deliberately prioritised.
