Transaction processing and payment networks across Latin America
Evertec processes 2.1 billion transactions annually across 19 Latin American countries, operating payment networks, merchant acquiring, and core banking infrastructure. The tech stack reveals a hybrid legacy-to-cloud transition: heavy SAP/Oracle/SQL Server footprint paired with active adoption of Kubernetes, Docker, and GCP, while threat modeling and application security projects signal preparation for modernization. Engineering-led hiring (36 roles) with accelerating velocity suggests scaling capacity to address the dual challenge of maintaining mission-critical uptime in high-volume environments while migrating toward cloud-native architecture.
