About the RoleSWIFT has implemented a state of the art Landing Zone in AWS as well as a full DevOps and Infra-as-code Operating model to enable autonomous devops for Agile app teams with governance at scale. We continue to grow, evolve and scale cloud infra ops as our footprint in the cloud grows, with selected greenfield apps and migration candidates. We are looking to onboard Cloud Automation Engineers in our Cloud Center of Enablement with a passion for building robust, scalable and secure cloud infra solutions delivered as self-service products, and services. Critical success factors in this role are Infra DevOps skills focused on coding for high quality infra automation, intellectual curiosity, willingness and grit to tackle tough problems, learning agility to absorb new tech and put it to use with engineering discipline, and a collaborative mindset. Work-experience in the cloud, or even self-taught, is highly desirable but the Infra DevOps experience as outlined here in an On-Prem environment, when coupled with the other characteristics (you will learn and master cloud infra at scale in the role provided you have Infra devOps and supporting skills).

We’re the world’s leading provider of secure financial messaging services, headquartered in Belgium. We are the way the world moves value – across borders, through cities and overseas. No other organisation can address the scale, precision, pace and trust that this demands, and we’re proud to support the global economy.

We’re unique too. We were established to find a better way for the global financial community to move value – a reliable, safe and secure approach that the community can trust, completely. We’re always striving to be better and are constantly evolving in an ever-changing landscape, without undermining that trust. Five decades on, our vibrant community reflects the complexity and diversity of the financial ecosystem. We innovate diligently, test exhaustively, then implement fast. In a connected and exciting era, our mission has never been more relevant. Swift now has a presence in 200+ countries and legal territories to serve a community of more than 12,000 banks and financial institutions.
