You'll keep production healthy, but more importantly you'll build the automation, tooling, and agentic workflows that make running our systems boring and predictable. This is an engineering role - if your instinct on a recurring issue is to write code that removes it, you'll fit in well.</p> <p> </p> <p>We operate in a regulated capital-markets environment, so the bar for reliability, security, and operational rigour is high.</p></div></div><div style="padding:10.0px 0.0px;border:1.0px solid transparent"><div style="font-size:16.0px;word-wrap:break-word"><H2 style="font-size:1.0em;margin:0.0px"><u><b>Job Responsibilities</b></u></H2> </div><div><ul> <li>Own production reliability (SLOs, capacity, incident response, postmortems) and turn every incident into a durable fix in code or automation.</li> <li>Build the platform and tooling that make services easy to deploy, observe, and operate: CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, observability stacks, runbooks-as-code.</li> <li>Apply AI agentically across operations (triage, root-cause analysis, remediation, change review) and contribute to our internal agentic ecosystem.</li> <li>Design and integrate the systems underneath our services: messaging (e.g. Kafka), orchestration (e.g. Kubernetes), and performance-sensitive infrastructure.</li> <li>Partner with product engineers on release readiness, rollout strategy, and production hardening before things ship.</li> <li>Continuously reduce toil: measure it, attack it with code, and raise the floor on what "easy to maintain" means here.</li> </ul></div></div><div style="padding:10.0px 0.0px;border:1.0px solid transparent"><div style="font-size:16.0px;word-wrap:break-word"><H2 style="font-size:1.0em;margin:0.0px"><u><b>Job Requirements</b></u></H2> </div><div><ul> <li>5+ years in DevOps, SRE, platform, or infrastructure engineering, with a clear track record of replacing manual work with code</li> <li>Strong programming ability in at least one modern language (e.g. Go, Python, Kotlin, TypeScript, Rust, etc), you write production code, not just glue scripts</li> <li>AI-native ways of working: real experience orchestrating agents for ops workflows, not just using AI for autocomplete</li> <li>Deep hands-on with Kubernetes, IaC (Terraform or equivalent), CI/CD, and modern observability (metrics, logs, traces)</li> <li>Production experience on a major cloud: GCP preferred, AWS acceptable</li> <li>Solid foundations in distributed systems and the failure modes that matter in production</li> <li>Incident-response maturity: calm under pressure, sharp on root cause, disciplined about follow-through</li> <li>Comfort in complex, regulated environments</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>Nice to Have</strong></p> <ul> <li>Familiarity with the FIX protocol or capital-markets domain</li> <li>Experience building internal developer platforms or self-service tooling consumed by other engineers</li> </ul></div></div></div>
