Job description

This role owns performance and reliability foundations: infrastructure, runtime systems, monitoring, and tooling that keeps everything stable and observable. You’ll build for predictable behavior under stress, with disciplined change management and tight feedback loops.

Outcomes (First 90 Days)

• Improve a measurable reliability/performance bottleneck (latency/jitter/stability/recovery).
• Implement or upgrade monitoring for a critical path.
• Improve an operational workflow/runbook to reduce recurring firefights.

Responsibilities

• Engineer and maintain core infrastructure: compute, networking, deployment paths, monitoring.
• Improve latency/jitter and stability across critical components.
• Build tooling for visibility: metrics, dashboards, alert routing, incident workflows.
• Coordinate constraints and priorities with dev/research/trading.
• Maintain operational readiness: runbooks, escalation paths, failure‑mode thinking.

Required Skills (Must‑Have)

• Experience building reliable production systems with monitoring and incident handling.
• Ability to reason about trade‑offs under constraints.

Bonus (Nice‑To‑Have)

• Low‑latency work (profiling, efficient I/O, tuning).
• Experience with colocated environments and redundancy patterns.
• Strong coding ability (Python and/or C++/Rust).
