We are seeking a highly motivated DevOps / Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) Support Operations Analyst to join our team. This role is focused on ensuring the reliability, stability, and performance of production systems through proactive monitoring, incident management, and continuous operational improvements.

The ideal candidate will work closely with engineering teams to maintain high system availability, reduce operational toil, and enhance automation across infrastructure and application environments.

The Operations Support Analyst role is part of a highly specialized support organization that is responsible for the daily operations of multiple industry leading trading exchanges, clearing systems, and data distribution services. This position requires identifying, troubleshooting, and resolving both internal system problems, as well as external customer-related IT issues.

• Automation & Continuous Improvement
  • Identify repetitive operational tasks and automate them using scripting/tools
  • Contribute to infrastructure-as-code and configuration management practices
  • Improve system observability, logging, and monitoring capabilities
  • Support continuous improvement initiatives to enhance reliability and efficiency
• System Reliability & Availability
  • Ensure services meet defined SLAs, SLOs, and SLIs
