* About you:

** You're an experienced systems engineer who enjoys solving complex technical problems and leading others to do the same. You’re confident designing and running secure, high-performance platforms and love working in a collaborative Dev Ops environment. You’re proactive, detail-oriented, and always looking for ways to make things better—whether that’s improving system performance, automating deployments, or mentoring others.

* • Lead the design and architecture of our payment and income reconciliation systems to ensure they are secure, scalable, and reliable.  
• Oversee the setup and running of servers and applications, making sure everything integrates smoothly and performs well.  
• Monitor and improve system performance, automate upgrades and deployments, and ensure our systems meet high security standards (like PCI-DSS for handling card payments).  
• Work closely with other teams and partners to support smooth payment processes, share knowledge, and keep documentation up to date.
** Your skills and experiences might also include:*
* • Strong background in Windows Server, Active Directory, and virtualization tools like VMware or Nutanix.  
• Experience with scripting and automation using Power Shell.  
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (like Azure or AWS), monitoring tools (such as Splunk or Solar Winds), and high-availability systems.  
• Knowledge of PCI-DSS standards and experience working on secure payment processing systems.
