• We strive to be better - We may make mistakes, but always learn from them.

How you’ll help us achieve it:
We believe strongly in building teams that can orient around a well-defined mission and are equipped to execute autonomously against that mission.

• Grow together: You’ll review others’ work and happily seek feedback on yours to ensure we build a better codebase and sharpen each other’s skills.
• Share your knowledge and points of view: We promote knowledge sharing across our teams and count on you to become an active member of one. Experiment with new tools, present your findings, shape our future standards.

How we work What we're most proud of though is our brilliant, creative, and tenacious team. Our remote-first workplace means you'll be working with Sendwavers in Europe, Africa, South America, and the U.S. that all share a core set of Sendwave values. What exactly are those values? Glad you asked. Prioritize fearlessly. There will always be more problems to solve and opportunities to pursue than... we have the capacity for. We're not afraid to say
How we work What we're most proud of though is our brilliant, creative, and tenacious team. Our remote-first workplace means you'll be working with Sendwavers in Europe, Africa, South America, and the U.S. that all share a core set of Sendwave values. What exactly are those values? Glad you asked. Prioritize fearlessly. There will always be more problems to solve and opportunities to pursue than... we have the capacity for. We're not afraid to say no and are willing to let fires burn, knowing that to win we must discern and execute decisively on the vital few rather than the important many. Take full ownership of the outcomes we're responsible for. Our job is not to do what we can to solve a problem. It's to ensure that problem is solved. If an attempt to solve a problem doesn't work, we seek an alternative. If we need help, we request it, and, if necessary, demand it. Forge a diverse team and inclusive culture. We believe the challenges we're addressing will be best met by a truly global, diverse team, working together. We're not naive to the systemic bias and discrimination that make this easier said than done, so we check our egos, listen deeply, and measure progress towards making this a fundamental part of our success. Maximize our rate of learning. We view projects as ever-evolving drafts and welcome opportunities to discover that what we had in mind won't work so we can move to an even better end state. Most importantly, we do this fast. The faster we run these loops -- as a company and individuals -- the faster we'll achieve our mission. Embrace embarrassing honesty from ourselves and others. We function best when we're open and honest with one another -- especially about our challenges and doubts. We lean into uncomfortable conversations and support our colleagues when they do the same. Maximize energy, not time spent. We measure our own and others' contributions by objectives reached, not time spent. Living a full life outside of work is necessary for high achievement over the long term. We also believe in being completely transparent about salary and pay. If we're committing to being open and honest with our customers about rates and fees, as an employee, you shouldn't expect anything less. How you'll help us achieve it We're looking for an experienced engineer with strong technical design skills and excitement about mentorship to help keep our team well rounded, and help keep our product quality high as we grow the team and the product. Engineering at Sendwave has stayed small throughout the company's growth and we've been able to sustainably work in a simple, monolithic backend. We're getting ready to tackle more challenges more quickly-- simultaneously launching multiple new markets and reinvesting in our user-facing product. To achieve this, we need our small product eng team to grow into a group of teams, and our monolithic backend to split into multiple focussed services. We want to add another senior engineer to the team to help guide some of the architectural changes we're making in the short term, and to mentor and grow our not-yet-senior team members to the point where they can take on those roles in the future. About the team Engineering at Sendwave is split between 6 teams (Finance, Risk, Growth and Engagement, Delivery, Policy and Identity, and our Platform team). We're about 30 engineers. Engineers at Sendwave work with Product to support all of our other teams including our Customer Service, Growth, Finance, and many more areas of the company. The engineering team is responsible for both our native iOS and Android clients and our python backend, including APIs, transaction delivery, performance, and support tools. What you bring to the table Participating in cross-team discussions about our system's top level architecture Mentoring and coaching other engineers to facilitate long term growth Reviewing code and design docs for other team members Identifying and helping to prioritize opportunities for our team to invest in the codebase(s) in order to move faster Help others on the team navigate and learn the most complex technical Building and deploying new features and improvements Requirements 6

• We have a bias to action - We get to first outcomes quickly, iterate and learn.
• We strive to be better - We may make mistakes, but always learn from them.
• We are inclusive - to better reflect and serve our users.
About the role
As part of the Zepz Data Team, you will have the power to ignite change and empower progress through our unwavering commitment to managing the platform and services that fuel insightful and automated decision-making for the betterment of our financial services users. You understand that for our platform to truly make a difference, it must be built on a foundation of reliable, fresh and trustworthy data, and it is our mission to ensure that this is a non-negotiable standard for every user and downstream application. As a Data Ops Engineer, you’ll help build the data platform that will enable multiple companies to better serve the financial needs of migrants. You will work closely with data engineering teams to bring agility, automation and governance to operational processes. Our mission is to build a world-class platform from first principles which will be leveraged both internally and externally. This new platform will enable Zepz (WorldRemit and Sendwave) and its partners to enter new markets while supporting the organisation’s goal of making remittance easy and secure for a global customer base.
Technologies and the environment…
We are using modern cloud-based technologies including databases services (Redshift, Bigquery, Aurora, RDS etc…), data analytics services (Athena, Looker, Glue, Databrew), storage (S3, GCS) and compute services (Lambdas, K8s). We use standard data transformation and orchestration technologies, such as dbt and Airflow. Python is the primary language used for data processing. Standalone applications and/or services may be required to provide supporting functionality, which may include additional frameworks and languages such as Java.
We put a strong emphasis on automation, unit/integration testing and performance testing. We treat our data processing pipelines like any production system because if they fail, our users will be impacted. In Technology we work closely with our product and architecture partners to design scalable solutions that serve our customers.
Reporting to the Snr Manager-Data Infrastructure, you will:
• Use code to solve problems. Configuration, infrastructure, tooling, and automation, everything must be solved by writing code.
• Helping design processes. You’ll be working closely with feature teams to assist with the release of new products, as such there is plenty of scope to design processes that fit in with the overall direction but allow teams to deliver code to production reliably and at pace.
• Helping design architecture. As well as owning the delivery of solutions you will also play a part in designing the architecture, how it interacts with dependencies from a logical and infrastructure viewpoint.
• Growing together. You’ll review others' work and happily seek feedback on yours to ensure we build a better codebase and sharpen each other's skills.
What we’re looking for from you
• Solid experience in a Data Engineer role with a keen interest in solving problems using code.
• 5+ years demonstrated experience, in platform engineering
• Expert Understanding of CI/CD and DevOps methodologies. You understand the build and deployment cycle of an application and how it fits into a global platform.
• High quality standards: data is messy but you treat your systems with the same level of care as any production service.
• Great Terraform Skills. All of our infrastructure is defined using Terraform and deployed using Atlantis. You should have a good understanding of Terraform and be able to solve common issues.
• Containerisation. You have a good understanding of Docker and Kubernetes and how you can leverage these tools to ensure there is zero downtime.
• Holistic view on application delivery. You understand the use of many systems, APM, monitoring, logging, alerting, scaling to build a robust platform for applications to respond to the varying demands from both external sources (traffic) and internal sources (feature team delivery) in a safe and controlled manner.
• Our Cloud Native platform is hosted in AWS. You’ll be comfortable working with a system that supports users from around the world, at scale.
• Agile outlook. You need to be excited about working in a fast-changing environment. Products, tools, frameworks and processes change, we evolve and take the best bits with us. The teams drive the evolution.

About the role
As part of the Zepz Data Team, you will have the power to ignite change and empower progress through our unwavering commitment to managing the platform and services that fuel insightful and automated decision-making for the betterment of our financial services users. You understand that for our platform to truly make a difference, it must be built on a foundation of reliable, fresh and trustworthy data, and it is our mission to ensure that this is a non-negotiable standard for every user and downstream application. As a Data Ops Engineer, you’ll help build the data platform that will enable multiple companies to better serve the financial needs of migrants. You will work closely with data engineering teams to bring agility, automation and governance to operational processes. Our mission is to build a world-class platform from first principles which will be leveraged both internally and externally. This new platform will enable Zepz (WorldRemit and Sendwave) and its partners to enter new markets while supporting the organisation’s goal of making remittance easy and secure for a global customer base.
Technologies and the environment…
We are using modern cloud-based technologies including databases services (Redshift, Bigquery, Aurora, RDS etc…), data analytics services (Athena, Looker, Glue, Databrew), storage (S3, GCS) and compute services (Lambdas, K8s). We use standard data transformation and orchestration technologies, such as dbt and Airflow. Python is the primary language used for data processing. Standalone applications and/or services may be required to provide supporting functionality, which may include additional frameworks and languages such as Java.
We put a strong emphasis on automation, unit/integration testing and performance testing. We treat our data processing pipelines like any production system because if they fail, our users will be impacted. In Technology we work closely with our product and architecture partners to design scalable solutions that serve our customers.
Reporting to the Snr Manager-Data Infrastructure, you will:
• Use code to solve problems. Configuration, infrastructure, tooling, and automation, everything must be solved by writing code.
• Helping design processes. You’ll be working closely with feature teams to assist with the release of new products, as such there is plenty of scope to design processes that fit in with the overall direction but allow teams to deliver code to production reliably and at pace.
• Helping design architecture. As well as owning the delivery of solutions you will also play a part in designing the architecture, how it interacts with dependencies from a logical and infrastructure viewpoint.
• Growing together. You’ll review others' work and happily seek feedback on yours to ensure we build a better codebase and sharpen each other's skills.
What we’re looking for from you
• Solid experience in a Data Engineer role with a keen interest in solving problems using code.
• 5+ years demonstrated experience, in platform engineering
• Expert Understanding of CI/CD and DevOps methodologies. You understand the build and deployment cycle of an application and how it fits into a global platform.
• High quality standards: data is messy but you treat your systems with the same level of care as any production service.
• Great Terraform Skills. All of our infrastructure is defined using Terraform and deployed using Atlantis. You should have a good understanding of Terraform and be able to solve common issues.
• Containerisation. You have a good understanding of Docker and Kubernetes and how you can leverage these tools to ensure there is zero downtime.
• Holistic view on application delivery. You understand the use of many systems, APM, monitoring, logging, alerting, scaling to build a robust platform for applications to respond to the varying demands from both external sources (traffic) and internal sources (feature team delivery) in a safe and controlled manner.
• Our Cloud Native platform is hosted in AWS. You’ll be comfortable working with a system that supports users from around the world, at scale.
• Agile outlook. You need to be excited about working in a fast-changing environment. Products, tools, frameworks and processes change, we evolve and take the best bits with us. The teams drive the evolution.
