Responsibilities
• As a Senior/Staff Software Engineer on the Citizen Developers Infrastructure team, you will design, build, and operate the platform services that underpin Airwallex’s citizen‑developer ecosystem and internal workflow automation. • Senior/Staff Software Engineer • platform services that underpin Airwallex’s citizen‑developer ecosystem and internal workflow automation • You will partner closely with application teams and citizen developers to define tooling, patterns, and development processes, while continuously improving the platform abstractions and paved paths they build on. You’ll be responsible both for the developer experience and guardrails of the platform, and for the underlying workflow infrastructure that makes it reliable and scalable. • underlying workflow infrastructure • Design, build, and evolve the citizen‑developer platform and tools that make it easy to create and operate automation / applications without deep infrastructure knowledge. • citizen‑developer platform and tools • Establish secure SDLC and guardrails for citizen‑developer‑built applications so compliance and security are baked in by default. • secure SDLC and guardrails • Build self‑serve development and operations tooling that reduce dependence on central platform engineers. • self‑serve development and operations tooling • Design, build, and maintain the Temporal‑based workflow infrastructure, addressing challenges such as multi‑tenancy, high availability, and cost effectiveness. • Temporal‑based workflow infrastructure • Contribute to the Kubernetes and GitOps foundation (ArgoCD, Helm, Terraform) that powers the platform, ensuring deployments are safe, repeatable, and auditable. • Kubernetes and GitOps foundation • Participate in code reviews, technical design discussions, and on‑call rotation for workflow‑related services, leading incident response and driving long‑term fixes where needed. • code reviews, technical design discussions, and on‑call rotation • Document standards, best practices, and reference architectures so teams building on top of the platform have clear, self‑serve guidance. • Document standards, best practices, and reference architectures
