Today, more than 300,000 companies use Mollie to get paid, manage money and grow – with products designed to be simple, scalable, and dependable.

With 950+ Mollies across 14+ locations, we care deeply about autonomy and craft. So we work in small teams, with real ownership, and we trust you to make the right decisions.

We're building for the long term, so we provide the tools you need, processes you can rely on, and a balanced work environment to help you do work you're proud of.

Sound like your kind of place? Let's build together.

Your impact

The Governance and Compliance team within the developer enablement domain sits at the heart of Mollie's infrastructure. We own and maintain Mollie's entire PCI infrastructure, including the IaC tooling built on Terraform and we sit directly in the critical payment path and communication layer between external works and our platform. That means what we build and maintain isn't just technical infrastructure; it's the foundation that keeps payments moving safely and reliably for hundreds of thousands of businesses across Europe.

As a Platform Engineer on this team, you'll be working on Mollie's Cloud Platform (MCP), our flavour of GCP, enabling product teams to create real value. Your work will span critical cloud infrastructure, automation, observability, and system reliability. You'll collaborate closely with system and software engineers, and interface with teams across compute, database engineering, edge, and networking. The impact is immediate and tangible: the systems you build and maintain keep Mollie's payments running.

This is a role for someone who cares about quality for engineers and non-engineers alike and who brings a genuine passion for automation, distributed systems, and getting things right at scale.

What you'll ship

• Design, build and maintain critical cloud infrastructure on GCP. Including Load Balancers, VPC, CDN, cross-region routes, and API Gateway, that keeps Mollie's payment systems running reliably


• Drive automation across the platform using Go and Python, reducing manual toil and building systems that scale without friction


• Own and evolve infrastructure as code using Terraform, managing a broad set of infrastructure resources with consistency and confidence


• Set up and maintain observability across team-owned projects, using tools like Datadog, Google Cloud Logging, and Sentry. So issues are caught early and resolved fast


• Collaborate with stakeholders to define, set and maintain SLOs and SLAs that meet the needs of our business and our merchants


• Ship new products and platform improvements alongside system and software engineers, balancing speed of delivery with a high bar for reliability and security

What you'll bring

• Extensive hands-on knowledge of GCP and public cloud infrastructure. You're comfortable owning critical systems at scale


• Solid experience with Terraform and infrastructure as code. You think in systems and know how to manage infrastructure with precision


• Strong Kubernetes experience, you understand how to run and operate containerised workloads in production environments


• Proficiency in Python, you can write automation and tooling that makes the platform easier to operate and extend


• A track record of working in environments where reliability and security aren't afterthoughts. You know how to balance shipping fast with keeping systems well-operated and monitored


• A passion for automation and distributed systems. You default to building scalable, repeatable solutions rather than one-off fixes

No matter if you're aiming for promotion, exploring a different career path or building new skills, you'll be supported with the tools, trust and opportunities to grow your way.
