The fund has rebuilt its infrastructure from scratch recently, adopting an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) approach—knowledge of NetDevOps processes is advantageous.

Ideally, you will have experience with Arista switches, Fortigate firewalls, and Meraki wireless networks.

You will collaborate with three other Network Engineers and work closely with the Platform Engineering team, comprising some of the brightest minds in Trading & Technology.

The interview process emphasizes open discussion, collaboration, and problem-solving, aiming to find a good fit and support your career goals.

The fund is open to hiring at both Mid and Senior levels for this role.

This is a hybrid role requiring four days on-site per week. There are no shifts, but on-call work is required one week in four.
