Engineering Manager - Cloud & Platform Operations

At Qred, we’re building the world's best bank for small businesses. Since launching 11 years ago, we’ve grown from startup to profitable fintech scale\-up, now generating over 1 billion SEK in annual revenue and supporting 50,000\+ entrepreneurs across Northern Europe. We combine smart technology, real data, and human judgment to make financing simple, fast, and fair. With bold growth plans and strong momentum across multiple markets, we’re now looking for an Engineering Manager for Cloud \& Platform Operations for the next phase of growth.

About the Role

As the Engineering Manager for Cloud \& Platform Operations, you will bridge the gap between technical execution and business impact by taking end\-to\-end ownership of our foundational internal systems and workplace technology architecture. Reporting directly to the CTO, you will lead a critical function that optimizes company\-wide efficiency, secures our digital environment, and ensures our platforms scale seamlessly alongside our growing fintech operations \- from core cloud operations to the internal systems and workplace tooling the company relies on. This is a mission\-oriented leadership role where your strategic planning directly empowers employees across the bank.

Key responsibilities

• Own cloud infrastructure operations across all markets \- availability, performance, resilience, and disaster recovery.


• Run FinOps: cost visibility, forecasting, Reserved Instances/Savings Plans, and per\-account budgeting \- with clear reporting to leadership.


• Build self\-service platform capabilities (CI/CD, IaC, observability, secrets) that reduce friction for product teams.


• Embed regulatory controls (DORA, EBA outsourcing, GDPR) into how we operate, with audit readiness as a default.


• Manage data residency, IAM, least\-privilege, and third\-party/concentration risk.


• Implement and govern privileged access management (PAM) \- just\-in\-time access, and audit trails for sensitive systems.


• Drive workplace IT automation and run a set of internal services streamlining employee permissions, SaaS management, and the day\-to\-day tooling the company relies on.


• Hire, grow, and retain a strong team while managing a broad ownership scope.

What we’re looking for

We are looking for a leader who thrives in a fast\-paced environment and brings a structured approach to technical operations. You have a proven ability to drive cross\-functional alignment with legal, security, and engineering teams while maintaining a strong proactive mindset. You are motivated by building scalable frameworks, minimizing security risks, and automating manual workflows to eliminate operational friction.

Qualifications

• Several years of technical leadership or people management experience within a Cloud Infrastructure function, with a style that's hands\-on enough to be credible and strategic enough to scale a lean team.


• Proven experience with cloud environment billing structures, specifically AWS cloud, GCP/Google Workspace, and SaaS license management.


• Strong grounding in platform/SRE practices: IaC, observability, incident management, and automation for access management and identity provisioning.


• Background working in regulated environments, banking, or fintech, with a solid understanding of ICT compliance, audits, and security controls is highly preferred.
