We build and operate core infrastructure across multiple data centers supporting a high-frequency trading environment. Our storage platform underpins data processing, analytics, and compute-heavy workloads across the company. Its reliability and performance directly impact productivity, cost efficiency, and the ability of teams to deliver results. This role owns a critical part of the infrastructure where failures or degradation immediately translate into delays, wasted compute, and operational risk.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • • Ensuring storage is reliable, predictable, and not a bottleneck for any critical workloads across the company

  • • Owning performance and stability of storage systems, and continuously improving them as data volumes and workloads grow

  • • Designing and evolving data placement, resiliency, and lifecycle strategies to balance performance, cost, and reliability

  • • Ensuring the platform behaves predictably during failures, maintenance, and scaling events

  • • Improving how storage integrates with compute environments (GPU/HPC, Kubernetes, data pipelines)

  • • Driving faster and more reliable incident detection, resolution, and prevention

  • • Improving capacity planning to avoid emergency scaling and unexpected degradation

  • • Continuously improving tooling, automation, and operational practices to make the platform easier to operate and scale

What We Look For In You

  • • Experience operating large-scale storage systems in production (distributed or vendor-based)

  • • Strong understanding of Linux, storage performance, and system behavior under load

  • • Ability to troubleshoot complex issues and drive them to resolution

  • • Practical approach to automation and system reliability

  • • Ownership mindset — ability to take responsibility for critical systems and improve them over time

  • Nice-to-have:

  • • Experience working with high-performance or distributed storage systems

  • • Understanding of networking in high-throughput environments

  • • Experience in environments with high reliability and performance requirements (finance, HFT, etc.)

  • Why Should You Join Our Team?

  • • Great challenges with many opportunities to prove yourself

  • • A welcoming group of highly qualified international professionals

  • • Cutting-edge hardware and technology

  • • Work remotely from anywhere in the world

  • • Access any of our global offices anytime

  • • Flexible schedule

  • • 40 paid days off

  • • Competitive salary
