Condukt is the next-generation compliance platform for financial services, offering an agentic solution powered by real-time data for business identity.
Always-on and policy-aware, Condukt enables financial institutions and fintechs to gain actionable insights into business verification - unlocking growth, increasing efficiency, and strengthening compliance.
We were founded by former operators and builders with deep experience in banking, payments, and lending. Today, our team spans across London and Porto, bringing together engineers, product owners, and operators from companies like Revolut, Meta, Block (Square), SumUp, American Express, Yandex, and OakNorth.
Trusted by leading regulated entities, including Wise, Tide, Mollie, Shift4, Flatpay, and myPOS, Condukt is backed by top investors, including Lightspeed Venture Partners and MMC Ventures.
We're looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to own and evolve the infrastructure that powers Condukt's distributed systems. You'll sit at the intersection of automation, reliability, developer experience, and security, building the foundations that allow our product teams to ship quickly, safely, and at scale.
As an early-stage, fast-growing company, we value engineers who take ownership, think in systems, and are comfortable operating in ambiguity. In this role, you'll design and maintain the paved roads for our engineers, while also owning reliability, observability, and security across a complex, real-time platform serving regulated financial institutions.
If you enjoy solving hard infrastructure problems, care deeply about reliability and operational excellence, and want to help shape both a platform and a company, this role is for you.
Own and evolve CI/CD pipelines, reducing friction and improving deployment safety
Implement automation to reduce operational toil and improve mean time to recovery
Design, build, and maintain internal developer platforms that enable self-service deployments, testing, and observability
Define, monitor, and continuously improve SLIs and SLOs across distributed systems
Participate in on-call rotations, lead incident response, and run blameless post-mortems to drive long-term reliability improvements
Proactively identify reliability, scalability, and performance risks, and lead initiatives to improve system resilience
Own the security of our cloud infrastructure and delivery pipeline
Manage and optimize Condukt's cloud infrastructure on GCP (GKE, Cloud Run, Pub/Sub, BigQuery, etc.)
Maintain and tune Elasticsearch clusters supporting search and indexing workloads
Configure and optimize Cloudflare for edge performance, security, and reliability
Drive cloud cost efficiency without compromising performance or reliability
Partner closely with Product and Engineering teams to support platform needs and roadmap decisions
5+ years of experience as a Platform Engineer, SRE, or Senior/Staff Software Engineer in production environments
Strong hands-on experience with GCP or equivalent cloud platforms
Deep experience with Kubernetes (GKE preferred), Terraform, and infrastructure-as-code
Proven experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Cloud Build, ArgoCD, or similar)
Hands-on experience securing cloud infrastructure: IAM, secrets management, and vulnerability management
Solid understanding of observability practices: metrics, logging, tracing, and alerting (OpenTelemetry or similar)
Comfort owning on-call responsibilities and leading incident management in high-availability systems
Strong communication skills and a collaborative, low-ego mindset
Ability to operate independently in fast-paced, ambiguous environments
Experience operating and tuning Elasticsearch clusters in production
Experience working in regulated or security-sensitive environments
Experience implementing SOC 2 or ISO 27001 controls
Tackle meaningful problems with real-world impact
Competitive salary and equity package
