Job description

INDmoney’s Stocks team is looking for a Platform Engineer with strong DevOps and infrastructure fundamentals to own the reliability, scalability, security, and operational excellence of systems powering live trading, market data, and order execution. You’ll work at the intersection of infrastructure and product, building the platform that keeps a high-stakes, low-latency, always-on stock trading system running smoothly.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines for the Stocks platform's services, enabling fast and safe deployments
• Own infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/Pulumi) for AWS environments supporting trading, market data, and order management systems
• Define and track SLIs/SLOs/SLAs for critical trading flows; build alerting that catches real problems without noise
• Lead incident response for production issues — triage, mitigate, and drive blameless postmortems with clear action items
• Build observability (metrics, logs, traces) across the stack using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, Victoria, Loki, ELK/Datadog, or similar
• Improve system reliability through capacity planning, load testing, chaos engineering, DR Drills and proactive failure analysis
• Automate manual operational toil — service creation, observability setup, access management,scaling, failovers, etc.
• Harden security posture in collaboration with security teams — secrets management, network policies, access controls, CIS Benchmarks, and much more.
• Optimize for low-latency and high-availability requirements specific to trading systems from exchange to DC to Cloud (market hours load spikes, exchange connectivity, order routing reliability)
• Collaborate closely with backend engineers on the Stocks team to ensure new features are designed with scalability & reliability in mind
• Contribute to and evolve internal platform tooling used across engineering (self-service deployment, inhouse observability/alerting, internal developer platform)

What We’re Looking For

• Strong hands-on experience with AWS (EC2, EKS/ECS, RDS, S3, VPC, IAM, CloudWatch, Lambda)
• Solid grasp of Kubernetes and container orchestration in production
• Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/Pulumi,Ansible, etc) and configuration management
• Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar)
• Strong scripting/programming ability (Python, Bash & Go) for automation
• Practical experience with monitoring and observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Datadog, New Relic, etc.)
• Working knowledge of networking fundamentals (DNS, TLS, Load Balancing, VPC peering, Private Endpoints, Transit Gateways) and Linux internals
• Experience running and supporting production systems on-call, with a track record of effective incident management
• Understanding of database operations (PostgreSQL/MySQL, Redis, Kafka, MongoDB) from an infra perspective
• Bonus: experience in fintech, trading, or other latency-sensitive/high-availability domains
• Bonus: exposure to security/compliance practices relevant to financial systems (SEBI, PCI-DSS, or similar)

What Makes This Role Interesting

• You’ll be working on systems where reliability directly impacts real money moving in real time
• High ownership — you’ll shape platform decisions, not just execute tickets
• Tight collaboration with product and backend engineering, not a siloed ops function
• Opportunity to build internal platform/DevEx tooling, not just maintain existing pipelines
