Platform Engineer - Python

We're looking for a Platform Engineer to help build and scale the infrastructure that powers a high-performance trading environment. You'll work closely with software engineers, infrastructure teams, and production support to develop reliable, automated, and scalable platforms that enable low-latency trading systems.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys infrastructure as code, cloud-native technologies, and software engineering, while working in a fast-paced environment where performance and reliability are critical.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain Kubernetes-based infrastructure supporting production trading systems.
• Develop automation and internal tooling using Python.
• Manage infrastructure through Terraform and Infrastructure-as-Code best practices.
• Improve CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation.
• Monitor platform health, troubleshoot production issues, and optimize system reliability.
• Collaborate with development teams to build scalable, secure, and highly available platforms.
• Drive continuous improvements across automation, observability, and operational excellence.

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in a Platform, DevOps, Infrastructure, or Site Reliability Engineering role.
• Strong programming experience with Python.
• Hands-on experience administering and supporting Kubernetes in production environments.
• Experience managing infrastructure using Terraform.
• Strong understanding of Linux systems and networking fundamentals.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or similar).
• Excellent troubleshooting skills and a passion for automation.

Nice to Have

• Experience within proprietary trading, financial services, or other low-latency environments.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
• Knowledge of Docker, Prometheus, Grafana, or other observability tooling.
• Familiarity with Kafka, PostgreSQL, or distributed systems.

This role offers the opportunity to work on mission-critical infrastructure supporting sophisticated trading systems while leveraging modern cloud-native technologies and automation practices.
