Engineering Manager - Infrastructure Services We're looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our Adyen Cloud Services (ACS) Team within the Platform Engineering organization in Bengaluru.

What you'll do 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.

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.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
