Join a team that is dedicated to delivering groundbreaking products and making a significant impact on our clients' success.

Overview of the Team

The team is structured around a managed services model where a central IPC Managed Services team provides overall service delivery oversight, governance, and escalation support, while a specialized NY Unigy technical team handles advanced system configuration and platform engineering. The onsite technician role is embedded at the client’s NYC trading floor and acts as the primary point of contact, bridging traders and end users, the client’s internal IT teams, and IPC’s internal technical and service teams.

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills to work directly with traders, users, and multiple technical teams.
• Customer‑focused mindset with the ability to provide clear, desk‑side support and training.
• Familiarity with network devices (routers, switches) and basic connectivity troubleshooting.
• Ability to work independently while coordinating across geographically dispersed teams.
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail for documentation, ticket updates, and SLA compliance.
• Flexibility to work in a fast‑paced trading floor environment with occasional extended hours.
• Methodical approach to testing, validation, and ensuring systems are fully operational before handoff.

Desired Skills and Experience:

• Experience supporting trading floor environments and familiarity with financial industry workflows.
• Knowledge of IPC Unigy platforms or similar trading voice/turret systems.
• Exposure to process improvement or automation initiatives.
• SIP/VoIP certifications or advanced telephony knowledge (SIP, PBX, SBCs).
• Strong understanding of networking protocols and voice infrastructure (TCP/IP, routing, QoS).
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Word, and Visio for documentation and reporting.
• Experience working in ITIL‑based environments and service management processes.
• Ability to support global customers and collaborate with geographically dispersed teams.
