Build Automation That Scales ▪ Design and ship end-to-end automation for deployment pipelines, infrastructure provisioning, and release orchestration — code that runs millions of times so engineers never have to repeat themselves.
Manage & Evolve Data Platforms ▪ Support the build, deployment, and operations of relational database systems, contributing to schema design, architecture decisions, and solution engineering for critical payment data infrastructure.
Own Observability & Platform Health ▪ Build dashboards, alerts, and metrics using Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk, or ELK that give engineers real-time clarity on complex, globally distributed systems. ▪ Analyze system performance and availability data and turn insights into infrastructure improvements that prevent incidents before they occur. ▪ Contribute to self-healing and auto-scaling capabilities that keep critical payment infrastructure resilient without human intervention.
Engineer for Reliability & Security ▪ Ensure infrastructure and data platforms meet security and compliance standards across cloud-native deployments supporting global financial services at scale.
Collaborate, Learn & Grow Fast ▪ Embed within Agile squads, working alongside senior engineers, product managers, and global PRE peers across sprint planning, reviews, and release discussions.
Requirements
You’ll write Python, build agentic AI tools, manage data platforms, and contribute to the distributed systems that process billions of real-time transactions.
If you are endlessly curious about how large-scale systems stay resilient, obsess over elegant automation, and want to launch your career at the intersection of AI, infrastructure, and global financial technology — this role was built for you.
▪ Write clean, production-grade Python (and Go or Bash where it counts) to eliminate toil, reduce manual intervention, and make systems self-managing.
Ship Agentic AI & ML-Powered Tools ▪ Build GenAI-powered engineering assistants that automate deployment orchestration, release governance, and environment lifecycle management.
▪ Integrate LLMs into observability, incident response, and developer support workflows, transforming reactive operations into proactive, AI-driven intelligence.
▪ Contribute to prompt engineering, model fine-tuning, and agentic automation initiatives that position PRE as one of the most AI-forward reliability organizations in financial technology.
Qualifications: Bachelor's degree, OR 3+ years of relevant work experience Preferred
Qualifications: ▪ Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field (2023–2025 graduates preferred; December 2025 graduates welcome).
▪ Proficiency in Python and comfort writing scripts or tools in at least one additional language (Go, Java, or Bash).
▪ Foundational understanding of relational databases (RDBMS): SQL, data modeling, query optimization, and database connectivity troubleshooting.
▪ Familiarity with Linux/Unix environments and meaningful command-line fluency.
▪ Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and a conceptual understanding of containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
▪ Understanding of CI/CD principles and how modern software delivery pipelines are structured and maintained.
experience with infrastructure-as-code tools: Terraform, Ansible, or Pulumi -even from coursework, a capstone, or an internship. ▪
Experience with database CI/CD tooling, particularly Liquibase for schema change management across environments. ▪
Experience with observability tooling: Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk, ELK, or Datadog. ▪ Database administration exposure: backup/recovery procedures, performance tuning, index management, or replication monitoring. ▪ Familiarity with Git workflows and modern DevOps toolchains (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD). ▪ Academic or project
experience with ML frameworks: scikit-learn, PyTorch, or LangChain / LangGraph. ▪ Understanding of networking fundamentals: DNS, load balancing, service mesh, or TCP/IP. ▪ A GitHub profile, personal project, hackathon entry, or open-source contribution that shows us how you think and build. U.S.
