About Windcave
Founded in 1999, Windcave is a global payments technology company, pioneering Payments as a Service (PaaS) and cutting-edge financial services. High volume of transactions flow through our platform every day for some of the world's most recognizable brands across all industries. We own the whole stack, from bare-metal servers in our datacenters to the edge network and our in-house developed payments software. We're looking for an Infrastructure Engineer in New York to help run it.
About the Role
Most infrastructure engineering jobs put you a long way from anything that matters, you inherit someone else's design, you raise a change request, and you wait. This role is different.
You'll engineer and operate the infrastructure behind a live global payments platform in a high-security, high-uptime PCI DSS environment. That means real ownership designing and building solutions, diagnosing root cause on production systems, and following problems through to resolution rather than handing them off. One day you're working on load balancing and edge security for a payments API processing high volume of transactions, the next you're deep in a virtualization cluster or in a datacenter cage.
The breadth here is genuinely rare. We run our own hardware, our own network, our own edge, and our own software. You'll work with experienced engineers across our international team, with real autonomy and ownership during US hours and colleagues in other regions providing support.
If you're an experienced engineer who wants to work on infrastructure where uptime actually matters, and to keep growing across a wider stack than most companies can offer, this is that role.
Our Technology Environment
This role includes a rotational after-hours on-call component for critical systems, shared with our international teams so overnight coverage is limited.
What You'll Bring
Candidates with strong engineering fundamentals and a demonstrated commitment to professional growth are encouraged to apply.
