About the Role

This is a hands-on engineering role within the Platform Engineering team, responsible for building and operating the infrastructure, platforms, and developer tooling that enable engineering and quantitative research teams to deliver software reliably, securely, and at scale. The role will help design, build, automate, and operate a hybrid production platform across AWS and on-premises environments, focusing on the HashiCorp platform (Nomad, Consul, Vault). You will treat infrastructure as software, promote automation-first practices, and build reusable platform capabilities to improve developer experience, operational resilience, and security.

Responsibilities

Design, build, automate, and operate the production platform across AWS and on-premises infrastructure.
Own, maintain, and evolve the HashiCorp platform, including Vault, Consul, Nomad, and associated integrations.
Use Terraform to define and manage infrastructure resources, configuration, and reusable platform modules.
Use Ansible to support multi-stage deployment workflows, configuration management, and repeatable operational procedures.
Build internal tooling, automation, and self-service capabilities that improve developer productivity and reduce operational overhead.
Support and enhance CI/CD platforms and engineering workflows, including safe promotion of infrastructure and platform changes.
Improve platform reliability, security, observability, performance, and operational excellence.
Partner with software engineers, quantitative developers, research teams, Tech Ops, and security colleagues to deliver secure, scalable, and resilient platforms.

Requirements

Five or more years of experience in platform engineering, DevOps, SRE, infrastructure engineering, or a closely related role.
Strong experience operating production or production-like infrastructure, ideally across hybrid cloud and on-premises environments.
Hands-on experience with HashiCorp technologies, particularly Nomad, Consul, and Vault.
Strong Linux systems administration and networking knowledge, including DNS, TLS, load balancing, routing, firewalls, and certificate management.
Strong infrastructure-as-code experience using Terraform and automation experience using Ansible.
Experience building automation or operational tooling using Python, Go, Bash, or similar scripting languages.
Good understanding of CI/CD, source control, deployment workflows, and change management for infrastructure platforms.
Strong attention to detail, commitment to process improvement, and awareness of the impact of platform changes.
Ability to remain calm under pressure, prioritize effectively, and adapt when dealing with uncertainty or complex operational problems.
