About The Role

Join LemFi, the financial engine for underserved populations worldwide. As a Senior Platform Engineer, you will design, build, and own our internal developer platform, enhancing the experience of our engineers and driving efficiency across our cloud infrastructure. You will have a significant impact on our engineering workflow and be a key player in our mission to provide financial services to those who need it most.

Design, build, and own the internal developer platform, ensuring it is self-service, AI-powered, and enhances the experience of internal engineers.
Act as the internal product manager for the platform, collecting requirements from engineers, prioritizing features, and maintaining a visible roadmap.
Set and enforce platform standards, including Infrastructure as Code (IaC), Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, and observability.
Comfortable working without a spec: you have operated in fast-moving environments where you set the direction as much as you follow it
Strong DevOps and platform engineering fundamentals: Kubernetes, CI/CD, observability stacks, IaC, and the judgement to know when to use each
Experience treating internal engineers as customers, gathering requirements, running a backlog, measuring adoption, not just shipping tools and hoping people use them
Proven track record building an internal developer platform or developer experience function from scratch, not just maintaining one someone else built
You've built or contributed meaningfully to an internal developer portal (Backstage, Port, or a comparable in-house system) and can speak concretely to what worked, what didn't, and why
Deep AWS expertise: you have designed cost-efficient, production-grade cloud architectures and you can defend every line of your Terraform
Proficient in at least one scripting or backend language (Python, Go, or equivalent) and confident building automation and tooling, not just configuring managed services
You actively build AI-powered tooling into platform and infrastructure workflows, cost anomaly detection, intelligent alerting, automated runbooks, not just use AI in your editor
Previous fintech or regulated-industry experience where security and compliance constraints (PCI DSS, SOC2, or equivalent) shaped your platform decisions
Exposure to multi-region or multi-currency infrastructure at scale, ideally serving markets in Africa, Europe or the Americas
