About this opportunity
Revley, Llc lists this Infrastructure Engineer opportunity in workfromhome, New York. Review the employer’s description below for duties, qualifications and application requirements.
Job description
Build the distributed systems, data architecture, and observability that keep Revley's payment platform fast, reliable, and correct at scale.
Revley is building the operating system for the recurring economy.
E-commerce. Subscriptions. Telemedicine. Software apps. Small businesses with recurring revenue. Anywhere money moves on a schedule, the underlying infrastructure is fragmented and built by accident. We are building it on purpose.
We start at the foundation — payments and tokenization. From there, a fully vertically integrated stack: checkout, subscriptions, multi-processor routing, dispute prevention. All built to work together. Not a collection of integrations. One system.
The Role
We are hiring a Infrastructure Engineer to own the distributed systems, data architecture, and observability that the rest of the platform runs on. This is an independent contractor role with the opportunity to convert to full-time. You will work directly with the founders and a small senior engineering team on systems that move real money for our customers every day.
This is a senior, high-ownership role. We are looking for an engineer who has designed and operated production infrastructure end-to-end, makes sound architectural decisions independently, and cares deeply about reliability, correctness, and performance under load. You should be comfortable owning systems from design through deployment and on-call with minimal oversight.
Responsibilities
Design and operate the event-driven backbone that connects payment flows, webhooks, and asynchronous processing
Own database architecture, schema design, and query performance on PostgreSQL for high-throughput transactional workloads
Build and tune queueing, retries, idempotency, and scheduling for billing and capture pipelines
Stand up observability — metrics, logging, tracing, and alerting — so we catch problems before customers do
Design CI/CD pipelines and deployment infrastructure for safe, frequent releases
Manage cloud infrastructure across AWS and Vercel, with an eye on cost, scaling, and resilience
Make architectural decisions on distributed systems and document them clearly for the team
Mentor engineers and contribute to engineering best practices
Required Qualifications
Five or more years of professional software engineering experience, with a track record of designing and operating production infrastructure
Strong backend engineering skills, with deep experience in Node.js and TypeScript (NestJS or a comparable framework)
Deep experience with relational databases, including SQL, PostgreSQL, schema design, and query optimization
Experience designing distributed systems and event-driven architectures
Hands-on experience with AWS services such as EventBridge, SQS, ECS, and CloudWatch
Working knowledge of queueing, idempotency, retries, and asynchronous processing patterns
Experience building CI/CD pipelines and managing deployment infrastructure
Demonstrated ability to operate independently in early-stage or high-velocity environments
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Preferred Qualifications
Experience operating infrastructure for payment or other money-movement systems where correctness is non-negotiable
Experience with infrastructure-as-code and containerized deployments
Familiarity with observability platforms and distributed tracing
Experience scaling PostgreSQL and designing for high-throughput transactional workloads
