Tooling Engineer - Harness

Required qualifications
• [10]+ years in software engineering, solution architecture, or platform engineering, including senior architecture leadership on distributed, high-availability systems.
• Experience in payments, fintech, merchant services, or a comparably regulated transaction-processing domain.
• Ownership of an enterprise CI/CD platform — not just use of one. Pipeline-as-code, templating and reuse at scale, RBAC design, secrets management, and multi-team governance. Harness, GitLab, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions with Argo or Spinnaker, or Jenkins operated at scale.
• Experience integrating security scanning into delivery pipelines and setting policy gates that engineering teams accept rather than route around.
• Working command of engineering delivery metrics — DORA or equivalent — including their limits and the ways they get misused.
• Depth in API and integration architecture: REST, asynchronous messaging, event-driven patterns, API lifecycle governance.
• Cloud-native architecture and Kubernetes in production.
• Track record of influencing technical direction across teams without reporting authority, and of explaining trade-offs to executives.
Preferred qualifications
• Hands-on Harness across multiple modules — particularly STO, SEI, or CCM, which fewer organizations have deployed.
• Policy-as-code experience (OPA/Rego or comparable).
• Cloud cost management or FinOps practice ownership; showback or chargeback implementation.
• Applied generative AI or agentic development patterns to real engineering workflows, governance included.
• Architecture leadership for large-scale API ecosystems, partner platforms, or merchant-facing onboarding.
• PCI DSS-aligned controls, IAM, or fraud/risk integration experience.
• Hands-on with [.NET / Java / Go / Node.js]; GitHub or Atlassian toolchain.
