Role
Who you are
- If you have a deep understanding of infrastructure and modern cloud architectures, coupled with a passion for taking ownership & accountability of project delivery, this is an ideal opportunity to make a lasting impact
- AWS - You should bring a strong understanding of AWS with practical experience in deploying, managing and optimising cloud-based applications, ensuring they remain reliable and scalable. More than just EC2 deployments you will be comfortable using ECS, Lambda, SQS, S3, etc
- Go / C# - We use Go for all of our core services that require scaling e.g. API’s / load balancers. We use C# for business logic. You will bring expertise in developing software using either Go or C#, preferably in a professional environment but personal projects which you can discuss in detail could also suffice
- Linux / Bash Scripting - You will be comfortable navigating around in a Linux ecosystem, setting up firewalls, Infrastrucure-as-Code (IaC), installs & bash scripting
- Terraform - You will have a strong track record of successfully using Terraform in a professional CI/CD environment
- Microservices architecture design skills - You will bring experience in understanding how to architect cloud-based systems using microservices, ensuring each component is scalable, secure, and reliable. You will demonstrate the ability to identify a problem and describe / draw a high level solution to present to architecture for build
What the job involves
- We are looking for an experienced Senior Infrastructure Engineer to help us meet the exciting challenge of scaling our platform to handle growing demand
- This role requires someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment where continuous innovation and refinement are key
- You will play a crucial role in shaping how our technology evolves, ensuring that our systems are scalable, reliable, and capable of meeting future demands
- Working alongside our engineering leadership, you’ll be at the heart of building capability for system reliability & scale, while also staying hands-on with the implementation of designs from system architecture
- Designing, building, and maintaining scalable, reliable, and secure cloud infrastructure on AWS using technologies including EC2, ECS, Lambda, SQS, DynamoDB, RDS, Cognito, S3, and SNS
- Developing and deploying cloud-native applications following microservice design patterns
- Implementing infrastructure as code using tools like Terraform or CloudFormation to automate deployment and scaling processes
- Automating deployment pipelines and CI/CD processes to ensure rapid and reliable delivery of software
- Monitoring system performance, troubleshooting issues, and optimizing infrastructure for performance and cost-efficiency
- Collaborating with the development team to ensure seamless integration and deployment of applications
- Ensuring best practices in security, compliance, and data protection are followed across all infrastructure components
- Mentoring and providing guidance to junior engineers, promoting a culture of continuous learning and improvement

Our take
Historically, KYC tools and technology haven’t been strong enough to fight fraud. While most automated solutions that depend on data sets can help with tick-box compliance and yes/no answers, they don’t provide much insight about the people you are doing business with. Xapien automates the online research process, providing detailed, fully-sources and auditable reports in as little as 10 minutes.
The company’s AI-powered platform creates enhanced due diligence reports using Natural Language Processing, which minimises false flagging with its uniquely accurate contextual understanding. For example, traditional tools could flag the words “criminal, tax evasion, and money laundering”, completely overlooking that the person being researched is actually a prosecutor of such cases.
The fast-growing company is established across the globe in over 100 languages and character sets. By democratising access to high-quality background research and due diligence, the company is well-positioned to see growth as a strong competitor in the field.
