About Snapmint
Founded by IIT Bombay alumni (Nalin Agrawal, Anil Gelra, Abhineet Sawa), Snapmint is building India’s most loved payment brand. We pioneered Pay in 3 through UPI and are also home to India’s leading 0% EMI e-commerce app — giving millions of Indians the freedom to shop now and pay in monthly instalments, with no extra cost and no credit card required.
Today, Snapmint has crossed 50M+ app downloads and is the preferred payment partner for 2,000+ leading consumer brands, including Zepto, ixigo, Adani, District Store, Titan and many more. We’re on a mission to make fair, transparent credit accessible to Young India - and make payments simple, enjoyable and worry-free.
Headquartered in Mumbai, with offices across major metros including Bengaluru, Gurugram, Delhi and Jaipur, we’re building at the intersection of commerce, credit, technology and culture. If you want to work on a product used by millions, build a brand people genuinely love, and help redefine how the next generation of India pays and spends you’ll fit right in.
Come build Snapmint and help us change how India pays.
The Role
We’re looking for a deeply technical, hands-on DevOps Architect operating at a Staff/Principal level as an Individual Contributor. As Snapmint scales from 10x to 100x, you’ll architect and build the infrastructure required to support exponential growth in scale, reliability, security and performance. You’ll work across engineering, Security, Data, Product, leadership and founders to solve complex infrastructure challenges, drive technical decisions, and execute hands-on.
- Role Title: Principal Engineer / Architect - DevOps
- Department: Technology
- Employment Type: Fulltime
- Experience: 10-13 Yrs.
- Location: Gurugram
- Working Model: Work from Office – 5 Days per Week
- Entity: Snapmint Credit Advisory Private Limited
What You Own
- Architect and evolve Snapmint's cloud infrastructure to support a 10x–100x scale journey — capacity planning, cost optimization, and resilience built in from day one
- Design and own CI/CD pipelines, deployment strategies (blue-green, canary), and release engineering practices across all engineering teams
- Build and maintain infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/Pulumi/CloudFormation) as the single source of truth for our environments
- Own container orchestration (Kubernetes/ECS) — cluster architecture, autoscaling, multi-tenancy, and cost efficiency
- Define and implement observability strategy — logging, metrics, tracing, alerting — so we detect and resolve issues before customers do
- Drive security and compliance posture in infrastructure (critical for a fintech handling financial data) — secrets management, network segmentation, audit trails, DR/BCP
- Lead incident response for high-severity infra issues and drive blameless postmortems that prevent recurrence
- Act as a technical mentor and force-multiplier for the broader engineering org on infra best practices, without direct reporting authority
- Partner directly with engineering leadership and founders on infra roadmap, budget, and vendor decisions
What You Bring
- 10+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or Infrastructure Engineering, with a track record of owning systems independently at senior IC level
- Proven experience scaling infrastructure for high-growth,
high-transaction-volume companies (fintech/BNPL/payments experience is a strong plus)
- Deep hands-on expertise with a major cloud provider (AWS preferred), Kubernetes, Terraform, and modern CI/CD tooling
- Solid systems thinking — you can reason about failure modes, cost curves, and scaling bottlenecks before they happen, not just after
- Experience building observability and incident management practices from scratch
- Comfort operating in a regulated, security-conscious setting
- Excellent written and verbal communication — you'll influence without formal authority
- A builder's mindset: you'd rather write the Terraform module yourself than write a ticket for someone else to do it
Good to Have
- Experience scaling infrastructure for high-growth fintech, consumer tech, or high-transaction platforms from 10x to 100x scale.
- Experience driving large-scale infrastructure transformations independently, from architecture and strategy through hands-on implementation.
