About the role

Lendi Group is evolving into an AI-native fintech, embedding artificial intelligence at the heart of how we work. This transformation is about more than tools – it's about empowering our people. By integrating AI across the business, we're freeing our teams to solve more complex problems, build smarter products faster, and deliver even greater value to our customers.

We're investing heavily in upskilling and reskilling, giving our engineers access to cutting-edge AI capabilities and the freedom to experiment, learn and lead in this new era. If you're curious, collaborative, and excited by what AI can unlock – this is your moment to get involved.

It's a team that values collaboration, fast learning, and delivering real value to Lendi Group's customers – all while having fun along the way.

Job Description

• Hands-on experience with Kafka, Docker, and Kubernetes.
• Experience with AWS cloud services, particularly IAM, Lambda, DynamoDB, ECS, and SSM.
• Experience with DevOps and IaC patterns and approaches
