About the Role

Join our eTrading infrastructure engineering team, building deterministic, secure, and highly available compute platforms supporting latency-sensitive electronic trading. This hands-on role covers bare-metal server architecture, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), Docker and Podman, hardware lifecycle engineering, operating system security and compliance, software supply chain controls, telemetry, and automated validation. You’ll work with various teams to deliver repeatable, observable, and performance-engineered platforms. Success means predictable low latency and minimal jitter, strong security posture, and smooth lifecycle execution across hardware, firmware, and operating system changes. The role has end-to-end engineering responsibility for the design, qualification, deployment, and operational support of physical server platforms.

Responsibilities

Translate trading workload profiles into qualified server bills of materials covering CPU characteristics, NUMA topology, memory, storage, NICs, and lifecycle constraints.
Benchmark and certify server hardware and firmware combinations, documenting performance, resilience, thermal, and compatibility evidence before production approval.
Build, patch, harden, and support RHEL platforms using standardized images, repositories, provisioning, and controlled lifecycle processes.
Engineer BIOS, firmware, kernel, and user space settings for deterministic performance, including CPU isolation, IRQ placement, power policy, NUMA locality, and network tuning.
Establish repeatable baselines for latency, jitter, throughput, and resource contention, detecting regressions through long-running tests and controlled changes.
Engineer and support Docker and Podman runtimes, including registries, image lifecycle, resource controls, storage, and networking, while preserving performance predictability and security.
Develop and operate OpenSCAP profiles, scans, remediation workflows, exceptions, and audit evidence appropriate to RHEL trading servers.
Generate and govern Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) for operating system packages, container images, drivers, firmware, and platform tooling, integrating vulnerability, provenance, and release policy checks into delivery pipelines.
Automate inventory, health, BIOS settings, firmware, and lifecycle workflows through Redfish and vendor management controllers.
Implement observability for CPU scheduling, interrupts, NUMA, memory, storage, network, thermal state, hardware faults, containers, and operating system health, investigating issues using tracing and system logs.

Requirements

Substantial hands-on server, Linux, or platform engineering experience in financial services, electronic trading, market data, or another performance-sensitive environment.
Deep administration and engineering expertise with RHEL, including installation, repositories, systemd, kernel and boot configuration, SELinux, storage, networking, patching, and troubleshooting.
Proven experience designing server bills of materials and evaluating CPU architecture, cache and NUMA topology, memory channels, PCIe layout, storage, NICs, power, cooling, and vendor lifecycle constraints.
Strong knowledge of x86 server hardware, BIOS and UEFI, BMCs, firmware, RAID or NVMe storage, memory fault handling, and enterprise hardware diagnostics.
Practical experience tuning Linux for low latency and determinism using TuneD and explicit kernel, CPU, memory, and network settings supported by measured results.
Strong Docker and Podman experience, including image construction, registries, namespaces, cgroups, capabilities, rootless containers, storage, and networking.
Experience implementing OpenSCAP scanning, tailoring, remediation, and evidence management against recognized security baselines.
Knowledge of SBOM standards and tooling, including vulnerability management, provenance, and release gates.
Hands-on experience with Redfish APIs and vendor server management platforms for inventory, configuration, health, firmware, and remote operations.
Strong automation skills with Ansible and a high-level language such as Python or Java, including API integration, idempotent configuration, and automated testing in CI/CD pipelines.
