Sr Systems / Networking Engineer

• 65% Linux Systems (bare metal, performance tuning)
• 25% Networking (routing, switching, redesign support)
• 10% Windows / Microsoft ecosystem (M365, identity)

Daily Responsibilities

• 70% Hands-On Engineering (systems + infrastructure)
• 20% Project Work (network redesign, scaling initiatives)
• 10% Team Collaboration

This is an opportunity to join a lean, evolving team where this role represents an expansion into deeper systems + networking capability. The environment is highly dynamic, with active infrastructure redesign efforts underway, particularly across networking. The ideal candidate is a mid-level engineer who is strong in Linux systems, has exposure to networking, and wants to deepen their skillset in a trading or low-latency environment. This is not a purely cloud or DevOps role, it’s built for someone who enjoys working directly with servers, switches, and system-level optimization. Required Skills & Experience

• Strong hands-on experience with Linux systems administration (production environments)
• Experience working with on-prem / bare metal infrastructure (not cloud-only)
• Solid understanding of networking fundamentals (routing, switching, troubleshooting)
• Experience operating in data center environments or with physical hardware
• Ability to troubleshoot both system and network layers
• Comfortable in fast-paced, evolving environments

Desired Skills & Experience

• Experience in trading, financial services, or low-latency environments (strongly preferred)
• Exposure to Linux kernel-level tuning or system optimization
• Hands-on work with switches, routers, firewalls, or VPNs
• Experience with Ansible or similar automation tools
• Familiarity with multi-data center infrastructure
