As aSenior Platform Engineerat JPMorganChase within Electronic Trading Services Platforms, you will be a hands-on technical leader responsible for designing, building, and tuning the Linux-based compute and infrastructure platforms that power our low-latency electronic trading businesses. This is a deeply technical, engineering-first role: you will write code and automation, design new systems, architect novel deployment models, and drive latency out of the stack at the hardware, kernel, and network layers. You will also harness modern Agentic AI tooling to accelerate delivery and multiply your impact.You will work directly with the Electronic Trading Lines of Business to align technical strategy with business goals, solve complex compute and performance-engineering challenges, and mentor partner technical teams. You will serve as an expert, hands-on advisor to peers, leadership, and stakeholders.Job ResponsibilitiesDesign, build, and operate high-performance Linux platforms for
