Remote flexibility
Undisclosed
The listing is advertised as remote but does not state which countries or regions candidates may work from.
Why this role is Undisclosed
We only label a role Work from anywhere, Region restricted or Work from home when the employer's own wording says so. We checked this advert under our current rules and found no country or region eligibility requirement in it. We don't guess, so it stays Undisclosed until the employer publishes enough location information. Here is exactly what the advert left out.
- Countries you can work from: Not stated. The advert only gives "Remote", which names no country you must live in.
- Whether the work is remote: Confirmed by the employer: "Fingerprint is a globally dispersed, 100% remote company."
- Working hours: Not stated. No timezone overlap or set hours are mentioned, so assume nothing either way.
Worth a look all the same. Missing wording is usually a rushed job posting rather than a closed door, so ask where you can be based in your first message, before you write a tailored application.
What the employer says
- Source listing states candidate location: "Remote"
What Nomaders makes of it
- No residency or region requirement found in the job description
- Check with the employer before assuming you can work from abroad
The quotes above are the employer's own words; the reading is ours. Always check the original listing and employment terms before working from another country.

About the role
Are you a systems-minded engineer with deep cloud infrastructure expertise and a passion for building the platforms that power products at scale? Do you enjoy solving hard distributed-systems problems, driving reliability, and partnering closely with engineering teams to architect for growth? If so, we have the perfect opportunity for you!
We're looking for a Senior Infrastructure Engineer to drive the design, development, and evolution of the systems that keep Fingerprint running fast, securely, and at scale. This is a foundational role on our Infrastructure team, with broad ownership over the systems, tools, and practices that power our engineering organization and customer-facing products.
You'll work across cloud architecture, deployment systems, observability, performance tuning, and developer tooling—helping to define and deliver our platform's reliability and scalability strategy. As a technical leader, you'll also collaborate closely with product engineering, security, and DevOps to ensure our infrastructure is ready for the next phase of growth.
Responsibilities :
Own a core infrastructure product or subsystem end to end — you design it, ship it, operate it, and are accountable for how it behaves in production.
Define project goals and success metrics for your work, aligning them with company objectives, and proactively identify and address risks before they become blockers.
Create technical designs from PRDs and requirements, taking an iterative approach that addresses critical corner cases without over-engineering.
Build secure, high-performing, resilient, and cost-efficient infrastructure for a broad range of applications and workloads.
Design, write, and ship software and developer-facing tooling that improves the day-to-day lives of our engineers and reduces toil.
Manage infrastructure through code and configuration (we primarily use Terraform), consistently applying patterns that align with our overall service architecture.
Partner with product engineering teams to architect their services for scale, resolving ambiguous requirements directly with stakeholders.
Participate in incident response and use systematic debugging to diagnose issues within your domain and across services.
Help tune and evolve monitoring for the team, and use operational data as the basis for proposing stability and performance improvements.
Approach all engineering work with a security lens — actively looking for vulnerabilities in your own work and in peer reviews.
Act as the go-to person for hard problems in your area, and mentor engineers through code review, pairing, and design feedback so knowledge doesn't silo.
Drive cross-team collaboration and engage stakeholders outside of engineering, facilitating discussions on technical and process topics.
Qualifications:
6–10 years of experience in infrastructure, platform, or backend engineering within primarily cloud-based environments (AWS preferred).
A track record of owning a product or subsystem end to end — you've designed something significant, shipped it, operated it, and lived with the consequences.
T-shaped expertise: deep specialization in one or two areas, with enough breadth to navigate and contribute across the wider system with minimal guidance.
