Senior DevOps Engineer

职位要求 / 描述

Lean is expanding our footprint by opening an office in Egypt this summer, and the Staff DevOps Engineer role is one of our first hires in the market.   We’re a Series B fintech (General Catalyst and Sequoia backed), and over the last few years, we have grown from a category-defining open banking company into a multi-rail infrastructure layer powering payments, data, and lending across MENA.   Cairo is a long-term bet on a market we believe in, and the people who join now will shape what Lean looks like there for years to come. You will be working alongside a very diverse team of 30+ nationalities, with backgrounds from some of the best fintechs in the region and globally. The work is hard, the standards are high, and the ownership is real. If you are a builder who wants to set the standard, this is the right moment to join. About the Role Lean Technologies is a fast-growing fintech company building the financial data infrastructure for the MENA region. Operating in a highly regulated, security-sensitive environment, we serve mission-critical financial services that demand robust SLAs, tight security controls, and scalable, high-performance systems. As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will work at the intersection of DevOps, cloud infrastructure, and SRE. You’ll own the architecture, automation, reliability, and observability of our hybrid cloud infrastructure across multiple regions and environments. You’ll troubleshoot complex problems across the stack from networking and Linux internals to Kubernetes and cloud-native applications, ensuring the platform remains secure, fast, and reliable.   ABOUT LEAN   Lean is the leading financial infrastructure provider in the Middle East. We power some of the region’s largest companies with APIs that enable payments, account verification, financial data access, and other critical financial infrastructure.   What started as the region’s pioneering Open Banking platform and quickly became the de facto leader in account aggregation and payment initiation in the region is now becoming something bigger: a multi-product infrastructure company powering payments, data, and lending across MENA.   We’ve processed billions of dollars in transactions. We’re trusted by 350+ clients - from Binance and Careem to Etisalat - and backed by General Catalyst, Sequoia, and Shorooq. Our $67.5M Series B was just the beginning. We’re expanding into new markets, opening offices, acquiring businesses, and building capabilities that didn’t exist here before.   What You’ll Do - Architect, deploy, and manage Kubernetes clusters across hybrid cloud environments (GCP, OCI, and on-prem). - Design and automate secure, scalable CI/CD pipelines for microservices and backend systems using GitHub Actions/Jenkins. - Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) across multi-region, multi-environment setups using Terraform/Ansible and GitOps practices. - Build and operate monitoring, observability, and alerting stacks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry , ELK . ) - Proactively identify and address reliability, latency, and availability issues to meet strict SLA objectives. - Participate in and lead on-call rotations and incident response, conducting detailed postmortems and RCA reports. - Automate infrastructure lifecycle tasks: provisioning, scaling, configuration management, and patching. - Champion security, compliance (SOC 2, ISO 27001), and infrastructure reliability best practices. - Collaborate with engineering teams to improve internal platforms, tooling, and developer productivity.   Must-Have Technical Skills - 6+ years of hands-on experience in DevOps and/or Site Reliability Engineering roles. - Deep understanding of: - Linux systems administration and internals - Networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, VPNs, routing, firewall policies) - Kubernetes/Helm/Containers (Setup and day 2 operations/troubleshotting) -
