Infrastructure Support

Ncounter are partnering with a leading global investment firm to hire multiple Trading Infrastructure Support Engineers into a high performance team responsible for the stability of mission critical trading platforms. This opportunity sits within a global Infrastructure Support function providing L1 and L2 coverage across AMER, EMEA and APAC, supporting services that underpin live trading, research and core platform environments.

This is not application support and it is not a project role. It is a technically deep infrastructure position focused on keeping complex systems highly available under real trading pressure.

You will be working across:

• Linux server administration, RHEL or CentOS preferred
• Kubernetes cluster administration, not just container deployment
• CI/CD tooling and infrastructure automation
• Kafka or similar messaging systems
• Monitoring stacks such as ELK or Prometheus
• High end storage environments, NFS or GPFS exposure beneficial

The split is roughly 80 to 90 percent BAU support with 10 to 20 percent focused on optimisation and automation. You will troubleshoot Linux daily, support and administer Kubernetes clusters, reduce operational toil through scripting in Python and Bash, and interact heavily with traders, platform teams and infrastructure stakeholders globally.

We are looking for engineers with around 3 to 7 years experience who are comfortable in fast paced environments, can context switch quickly and take ownership during incidents and post mortems. Strong communication skills and sound judgement under pressure are essential.

Hiring is global with priority across Toronto, Montreal and London, alongside Warsaw and Asia locations.

If you are an infrastructure focused engineer who enjoys solving complex production issues rather than building greenfield projects, please get in touch to discuss further in confidence.
