Job Description:

Building trusted markets - powered by our people

At Cboe Global Markets, we inspire our people to solve complex challenges together because what we do matters. We provide the financial infrastructure that powers the global economy. As a leading provider of market infrastructure and tradable products, Cboe delivers cutting-edge trading, clearing and investment solutions to market participants around the world.

We're building meaningful ways to support professional and personal development while strengthening the trust we've earned as a global market leader. Our teams are empowered to share ideas, actively pursue them and bring on a challenge. As champions of internal mobility and access to opportunity, we encourage our people to \"go for it\" and equip our managers with the training to coach their teams to the next level. We strive to provide employees a safe space to network, share ideas and create opportunities.

To support strong partnership and team connection, this role follows a four day in office work model.

Location Overview:

Cboe HQ is located in the historic Old Post Office district, it's a landmark that blends classic architecture with modern amenities. The building features expansive spaces with high ceilings and large windows, offering an abundance of natural light and panoramic views of the city skyline and the Chicago River.

With its prime location in the heart of downtown, the OPO Building provides easy access to major transportation hubs, including Union Station and multiple CTA lines, making it convenient for commuters. The building is home to a variety of amenities, including restaurants, a fitness center, and collaborative workspaces, creating a vibrant and dynamic work environment in one of Chicago's most iconic areas.

Role Overview

Cboe Clear U.S. (CCUS) is a regulated clearinghouse. We clear the event contracts and prediction markets listed on Cboe's exchanges, and we are building toward tokenized collateral, 24x7 operation, and the infrastructure that carries traditional finance onto DeFi rails.

CCUS Software Engineering is a high trust environment. Failure leads to inquiry rather than blame. Working across team boundaries is expected rather than tolerated. We solve the problem, then we write the code. Design documents and architecture decision records come first. The engineers we value most close their feedback loop. They write tests, and they instrument what they ship so it fails fast, explains itself in production, leaves an audit trail and rolls back cleanly.

The DevEx Engineer builds the pipelines, tooling and observability every other engineer here depends on. You would be one of the first engineers on a new developer experience team, which means you help choose the tooling and set the standards rather than arrive after those decisions are made. That scope is unusual for an individual contributor role and it is the strongest reason to take this job.

Your responsibilities will be:

• Building and maintaining our CI pipelines in GitHub Actions, and integrating them with the platform team's deployment tooling.
• Owning the Helm charts and values that define how our services run in each environment.
• Instrumenting those pipelines to produce real metrics on our software delivery lifecycle.
• Wiring observability into our microservices so engineers can diagnose behavior in production rather than reproduce it locally, including logging, tracing and retention.
• Defining service level objectives for the services this team provides, and holding them to an error budget.
• Making the path to production push button and reversible, so releases and rollbacks are routine, automated and low risk.
• Creating tooling that measurably improves how quickly and safely other engineers ship.
• Deploying and operating containerized services on Kubernetes.
• Managing infrastructure as code and keeping environments consistent and reproducible.
• Participating in incident response and turning findings into durable fixes rather than repeat tickets.
• Contributing to disaster recovery testing and the validation of recovery objectives.
• Documenting decisions in architecture decision records so choices stay visible to other teams.

Required:

• Supporting developer experience across the delivery lifecycle, from build and test through deployment and observability
• Experience building and operating production application services, in Java or a comparable language, before moving into developer tooling
• Instrumenting services and pipelines for observability, including the metrics, logs and traces that make runtime behavior visible
• Defining service level objectives and running to an error budget, with alerting that reflects user impact rather than machine noise
• Reducing deployment pain through automation, so changes reach production on a repeatable path with a low change failure rate and fast time to restore service
• A bias toward automating repeated work permanently rather than performing it twice
• Strong Linux fundamental
