With AI-powered tools and a fully owned payroll infrastructure, Deel supports every worker type in 150+ countries—helping businesses scale smarter, faster, and more compliantly. Among the largest globally distributed companies in the world, our team of 7,000 spans more than 100 countries, speaks 74 languages, and brings a connected and dynamic culture that drives continuous learning and innovation for our customers. /ph3Why should you be part of our success story? /h3pAs the fastest-growing Software as a Service (SaaS) company in history, Deel is transforming how global talent connects with world-class companies – breaking down borders that have traditionally limited both hiring and career opportunities. We're not just building software; we're creating the infrastructure for the future of work, enabling a more diverse and inclusive global economy. In 2024 alone, we paid $11.2 billion to workers in nearly 100 currencies and provided healthcare and benefits to workers in 109 countries—ensuring people get paid and protected, no matter where they are. /ppOur momentum is reflected in our achievements and customer satisfaction: CNBC Disruptor 50, Forbes Cloud 100, Deloitte Fast 500, and repeated recognition on Y Combinator's top companies list – all while maintaining a 4.83 average rating from 15,000 reviews across G2, Trustpilot, Captera, Apple and Google. /ppYour experience at Deel will be a career accelerator. At the forefront of the global work revolution, you'll tackle complex challenges that impact millions of people's working lives. With our momentum—backed by a $17.3 billion valuation and $1 B in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) in just over five years—you'll drive meaningful impact while building expertise that makes you a sought-after leader in the transformation of global work. /ph3About The Role /h3pWe're looking for an Infrastructure Tech Lead to join our Infra Core team at Deel. This is a staff-level, technical leadership role (with no direct people management). You will be the most senior technical voice on a team of four to five engineers, setting the technical direction while doing real, hands-on work in equal measure. /ppIn this role, technical depth is not optional. You will stay close to the architecture, code, and infrastructure while simultaneously shaping the roadmap and raising the team's bar. Your primary focus is the application layer: how services are built, observed, and scaled across the organization. You will be building the control plane, tooling, and infrastructure primitives that hundreds of Deel engineers depend on every day. /ph3How We Build At Deel /h3pAs a hyper-growth company, new initiatives and shifting priorities are the norm here. This is not an environment for "maintenance-mode" engineering. We are builders. Our philosophy is simple: identify the biggest bottleneck, build a robust solution, ship it, and immediately move on to tackle the next massive problem. If you thrive in a high-velocity environment where your work has an immediate, wide-scale impact, you'll feel right at home. /ph3The challenges ahead /h3ulliEngineering-Led Product Ownership: We do not have a Product Manager. The shaping of what the team works on, prioritizing the roadmap, and determining how to tangibly improve developers' lives at Deel is 100% driven by you and the team. /liliArchitectural Impact: You will design patterns and infrastructure for a rapidly growing Kubernetes ecosystem, shaping how hundreds of microservices are built, deployed,



and efficiently scaled globally. /liliExpert Troubleshooting Noise Reduction: You are the ultimate escalation point during critical production incidents. We handle thousands of internal support and infrastructure requests every quarter—you won't just help answer them; you will treat that toil as an engineering problem and build the automation required to eliminate it. /liliService Provisioning Developer Experience: Transform how a new service goes from approved to running. You'll automate secure provisioning, database setups, and environment registrations so teams can deploy to Dev, Demo, Prod on the exact same day without Infra becoming a bottleneck. /liliEdge Routing Traffic Management: Drive massive architectural shifts at the routing layer. You will tackle projects equivalent in scale and complexity to replacing entire ingress controller fleets or migrating massive backend traffic volumes to centralized API gateways without dropping requests. /liliSecrets Management Infrastructure Security: Lead enterprise-scale secrets management and security posture improvements. You will architect zero-downtime secret rotation, eliminate legacy credential injection methods, and enforce strict boundaries between sensitive data and GitOps-driven configurations. /liliApplication Observability at Scale: Spearhead the evolution of our observability stack. You will deprecate legacy tracing systems, drive the adoption of unified OpenTelemetry standards across hundreds of microservices, and build high-volume logging pipelines that give teams the exact signals they need. /liliReal-time Agentic Infrastructure: Architect and deploy new platform capabilities, from enterprise-scale real-time WebSocket infrastructure to ensuring our platform natively and efficiently supports the massive influx of event-driven and AI-agentic workloads. /liliCross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with DevOps, DBA, InfoSec, and product engineering teams to align on organizational goals. You will represent the infrastructure domain in architectural conversations, resolving complex multi-team technical challenges and driving shared objectives. /li /ulh3These are only a glimpse of all the challenges ahead. /h3h3What We're Looking For /h3ulli10+ years of professional software engineering experience, including 5+ years specifically focused on infrastructure (AWS/GCP, Kubernetes, Helm, GitOps, CNCF landscape). /liliProgramming Expertise: Expertise in writing production-grade code in Node.js, JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, or Python. /liliTechnical Leadership: 2+ years of experience acting as a technical lead, mentoring engineers, and successfully driving projects with distributed, cross-functional teams across multiple time zones (this is a player-coach role, no direct HR management). /liliDistributed Systems Event-Driven Architectures: Proven experience designing high-performance, highly available distributed systems. You should have deep familiarity with message brokers (NATS, Kafka) and building event-driven architectures on top of them. /liliKubernetes Mastery: Experience designing and operating systems that extend Kubernetes—whether by building operators and controllers, integrating and customizing third-party tools, or architecting custom platform primitives on top of Kubernetes APIs. /liliDatabase Familiarity: Solid operational experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL/MySQL), particularly around how they integrate and scale within a modern platform. /liliA track record of delivery: You have taken complex infrastructure projects from inception to delivery—writing the roadmap, aligning stakeholders, hitting milestones, and successfully shipping. /liliExcellent Communication: Strong written and verbal communication skills. You can articulate complex architectural tradeoffs clearly to both product engineers and leadership. /liliA bias for action: You make the tough calls, document your decisions,



and never let perfect become the enemy of good. /li /ulh3Nice to have /h3ulliExperience with internal developer platforms (IDP), developer experience tooling, or self-serve platform engineering. (While this role is primarily infrastructure-focused, platform instincts are a strong premio.) /li /ulh3What Makes You Stand Out /h3pTechnical depth alone isn't enough for this role. The person who will thrive here can hold a strong technical vision, align a team behind it, and execute; even through ambiguity or disagreement. You have a reputation for shipping things that are hard to ship. You know how to keep a project moving without losing the room, and you strongly prioritize relentless execution over endless debate. /ph3The team /h3pInfra Core is a remote, highly autonomous team of five engineers solving the foundational infrastructure problems that affect every team at Deel. We are considered an enabler within the company heavily relied upon during critical moments, and operating entirely without a PM so we can shape our own destiny. From how a new service gets provisioned on day one to how it runs reliably at scale, we handle it. We work closely with our sister workstream (Infra Engineering) and with DevOps, sitting squarely at the critical intersection of developer experience and production reliability. /ph3Total Rewards /h3pOur workforce deserves fair and competitive pay that meets them where they are. With scalable benefits, rewards, and perks, our total rewards programs reflect our commitment to inclusivity and access for all. /pulliOur salary range reflects gross base salary. For commercial roles with commission eligibility, this figure represents On-Target Earnings (OTE), inclusive of base salary and target commission. /liliSalary ranges are quoted in USD as a consistent global reference. Your offer will be localized to your country's currency using a market-aligned conversion. /liliFinal pay is based on objective, job-related criteria including experience, skills, and location. /liliWe don't ask about salary history. Offers are based on the role and what you bring to it. /li /ulh3Some things you'll enjoy /h3ulliStock grant opportunities dependent on your role, employment status and location /liliAdditional perks and benefits based on your employment status and country /liliThe flexibility of remote work, including optional WeWork access /li /ulpAt Deel, we're an equal-opportunity employer that values diversity and positively encourage applications from suitably qualified and eligible candidates regardless of race, religion, sex, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, pregnancy or maternity or other applicable legally protected characteristics. /ppUnless otherwise agreed, we will communicate with job applicants using Deel-specific emails, which include @deel.com and other acquired company emails like @payspace.com and @paygroup.com.
