## Job description

We build and operate the compute infrastructure our researchers run on, supporting large-scale processing of historical market data and model training on our own hardware across multiple data centers.

Our Infrastructure team covers monitoring and automation, distributed storage, hardware and OS provisioning, GPU clusters and workload scheduling, high-speed networking, L2/L3 Linux support, and security engineering. Engineers here own their tasks end to end, so there's room to go deeper in your area and pick up the parts you haven't touched yet.

- Monitoring infrastructure health and performance, identifying bottlenecks, and preventing recurring issues
- Supporting the full server lifecycle: provisioning, setup, upgrades, and maintenance
- Improving reliability and predictability during failures, maintenance, and scaling
- Automating provisioning, configuration, and operational tasks, primarily using Ansible and scripting

What We Look For In You:

- Strong hands-on Linux administration and troubleshooting experience
- Production experience with on-premise, bare-metal infrastructure
- Good understanding of Linux performance and bottleneck analysis
- Experience with:
- infrastructure monitoring and troubleshooting production issues,
- server provisioning, configuration, and lifecycle management,
- infrastructure automation, ideally using Ansible

Nice-to-have:

- Experience Experience with hardware bring-up and lifecycle management: BMC/IPMI, firmware, BIOS tuning, and automated OS provisioning (PXE/netboot)
- Experience with virtualization clusters, including live migration and HA
- Experience with distributed storage clusters, including replication, rebalancing, and recovery from disk and node failures

Why Should You Join Our Team?

- Great challenges with many opportunities to prove yourself
