## Description

We’re looking for a **Systems Engineer** to join our globally distributed Trading Infrastructure team. This is an end-to-end role: you will work on full-stack infrastructure tasks — from new site/provider setups and environment bring-up to validation testing, troubleshooting, and performance bottleneck analysis. You will collaborate closely with vendors, network and hardware engineers and take ownership of delivering reliable production-ready setups

**What You’ll be doing**

- Deliver end-to-end infrastructure setups across regions/colocations: bring-up, validation, and go-live readiness

- Own the systems side of the stack: Linux servers, OS baseline, automation, configuration, and performance tuning

- Run and improve testing/validation: connectivity checks, load/performance tests, failure testing, and readiness checklists

- Participate in investigation of complex issues and bottlenecks across layers (OS/kernel/drivers/dependencies) and drive fixes with network/hardware peers and 3rd party vendors

- Build repeatable automation and rollout playbooks (Terraform/Ansible, scripting, standards)

- Improve observability: metrics/logs, dashboards, alert tuning, and latency/performance baselines

- Strengthen operations: runbooks, incident reviews (RCA), change hygiene, and documentation

- Participate in scheduled on-call rotations to support trading infrastructure and incident response. 

**What we look for in you:**

- Hands-on production experience with Linux and systems troubleshooting

- Ability to debug across layers and coordinate effectively with network/hardware engineers

- Solid networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, routing basics, MTU, packet loss/jitter symptoms)

- Automation mindset: bash/Python; Terraform/Ansible experience is a plus

- Strong written and verbal communication (clear status updates and documentation)

- Passion for technology and continuous learning 

**Nice-to-Have:**

- Low-latency / performance tuning experience (CPU/IRQ affinity, NIC tuning, etc.). Colocation / provider coordination experience (setups, acceptance, troubleshooting)

- Time synchronization basics (NTP/PTP) and practical impact on production systems

- Interest or experience in trading / exchange / broker connectivity

**Why should you join our team?**

- Exciting challenges with ample opportunities for personal and professional growth

- A welcoming international team of highly qualified professionals

- Cutting-edge hardware and technology

- Work remotely from anywhere in the world

- Access any of our global offices anytime

- Flexible schedule

- 40 paid days off

- Competitive salary
