As a Staff Infrastructure Engineer, Trading, you will join the Exchange team to own the infrastructure, deployment, and operational tooling for a unified trading platform. You will manage latency-sensitive, multi-node trading environments across both cloud and on-prem or colocated venues while driving reliability, developer velocity, and incident response for systems operating 24/7. Your daily work involves setting operational standards through automation, reducing single-point-of-failure risks, and partnering with cross-functional teams to translate platform needs into a roadmap. The role requires deep proficiency in orchestration tooling, containerized and baremetal deployments, observability, and logging tools. You must possess strong Linux performance and networking fundamentals within latency-critical environments. This position specifically addresses the technical challenges of maintaining high-performance infrastructure within regulated financial environments where low-latency execution is critical for institutional trading systems.
