Engineering Manager - Infrastructure Services

Responsibilities

• Lead and grow a high-performing infrastructure team: Manage platform and infrastructure engineers across all levels, owning day-to-day operations, planning, and hiring in Bengaluru and in coordination with other tech hubs.
• Bring structure and process to execution: Introduce and refine operational processes that improve incident response, change management, and predictable delivery for mission-critical infrastructure.
• Foster a culture of technical excellence: Drive globally optimized technical decisions with a focus on automation, partnering with other leads to evolve container orchestration, traffic management, and infrastructure tooling.
• Scale for massive growth: Guide the team through platform modernization, multi-region resilience, and architectural evolution while owning the operational realities of bare-metal infrastructure and datacenter dependencies.
• Integrate platform best practices: Ensure reliability, security, and observability are embedded into how teams consume infrastructure offering a "golden path" for engineers to deploy and operate services.

Requirements

• Experienced engineering leader: Proven track record managing and growing high-performing teams in platform, infrastructure, or SRE domains. 8+ years in engineering, with 3+ years in leadership roles.
• Infrastructure domain expertise: Deep understanding of container orchestration (Kubernetes), traffic management (load balancers, DNS), and on-prem/bare-metal operations. Hands-on experience running large-scale, highly available production infrastructure.
• Technical leader with a strong engineering perspective: You shape technical direction, improve reliability and performance, and ensure solutions are scalable and maintainable with a focus on automation.
• Hands-on when needed: While this is a management role, you're comfortable in technical discussions to guide your team and ensure sound decisions, and can partner across infrastructure and development teams to diagnose and resolve issues when needed.
• Nice to have: Prior experience in FinTech or regulated industries where reliability and security are paramount. Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code, GitOps, and building automation for provisioning and lifecycle management.
• Our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion commitments
• Studies show that women and members of underrepresented communities apply for jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. Does this sound like you? If so, Adyen encourages you to reconsider and apply. We look forward to your application!
• What's next?
• This role is based out of our Bengaluru office. We are an office-first company and value in-person collaboration; we do not offer remote-only roles.
