About This Role

We are building the next-generation Financial Cloud platform, enabling Bybit to deploy and operate regulated financial services across 50+ global sites, each subject to different compliance requirements (EU MiCA, APAC licenses, etc.). Each site is a unique combination of business modules, infrastructure configurations, and compliance controls — managed as versioned, reproducible units.

As a Senior DevOps Engineer for the Financial Cloud Toolchain, you will drive the end-to-end developer experience and deployment automation for this multi-site platform. You will design and build systems that ensure every deployment is reproducible, every dependency is traceable, and every site automatically and safely converges to its declared state.

What You'll Do

Build & Release Engineering (40%)

Design and implement hermetic, deterministic build pipelines that produce reproducible artifacts for all platform modules

Build and maintain a content-addressable artifact registry with full provenance capabilities (SLSA L3+)

Implement dependency graph analysis tooling to compute build/deploy blast radius for every change

Own the Version Set model: define, validate, and promote locked module-version combinations ("Manifests") through environment stages

Enforce semantic versioning governance and automated compatibility verification across 50+ independently versioned modules

Design a GitOps-based deployment engine that reconciles each site to its target Manifest state

Build progressive rollout capabilities: canary → regional → global, with automatic rollback on SLO violations

Implement site-aware configuration rendering: given a site's Manifest + region + compliance tier, produce the complete deployable state

Create an automated upgrade plan generator: compute safe upgrade paths based on dependency ordering and compatibility constraints

Operate and evolve the Financial Cloud configuration center and module selection center

Build self-service workflows for module teams: onboard new modules, publish versions, request promotion to production Manifests

Provide real-time visibility: cross-site version drift, deployment health, dependency freshness, compliance patch coverage

Design the "Module → Manifest" pipeline: from module selection to validated Manifest generation in ≤30 minutes

Integrate with internal CI systems to provide selective test execution based on dependency graph analysis

Automate compliance evidence generation for regulated deployments (audit trails, SBOMs, change records)

Design cold-start orchestration that automatically derives correct startup ordering from the dependency graph

Build chaos testing frameworks to validate site-level DR and failover under real module compositions

Ensure Phase 1 infrastructure deployment automation ≥95%, Phase 2 data layer ≥90%, Phase 3 business applications ≥90%
