We are looking for a DevOps Engineer to design, build, and operate reliable build and deployment automation for high-performance trading systems. In this role, you will own and continuously improve CI/CD pipelines and platform level, data driven automation workflows, develop high-quality automation solutions, and work closely with engineering, quant research, and production support teams to deliver repeatable, secure systems with strong observability across environments.
Key responsibilities
In close partnership with Quant Research, design, build, and operate research environments that support data refinement, transformation, and aggregated results collection (using technologies such as Python, Q/KDB, VictoriaMetrics). Plan, build, and support an infrastructure orchestration layer to run and monitor research experiments and automate the generation of calibration parameters for trading strategies.
Develop and operate CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, TeamCity), including quality gates, approvals, artifact management, and rollback strategies. Own build and deployment automation across environments (dev/test/stage/prod), ensuring releases are repeatable, secure, and reliable.
Troubleshoot and resolve pipeline and deployment failures end-to-end (source control, build, artifacts, runtime, connectivity, permissions) and drive root-cause fixes.
Improve observability and operational readiness for the build/deploy process (logging, metrics, alerts, runbooks) and continuously refine automation standards.
Required skills and experience
Strong scripting skills (Python strongly preferred; Bash/shell required). Ability to produce clean, testable and maintainable automation code.
Hands-on experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines, including branching strategies, artifact management, secrets handling, and deployment promotion.
Unix/Linux skills: process, filesystem, permissions, services, troubleshooting, and performance basics.
Good networking fundamentals: DNS, TCP/IP, ports, routing basics, TLS certificates; ability to debug connectivity issues with standard tools.
Experience with version control (Git) and collaborative engineering practices (code review, documentation, automation-first mindset).
Comfort working in incident-driven environments: clear communication, structured troubleshooting, and post-incident improvements.
Monitoring/logging experience (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk/ELK) and building operational dashboards.
Awareness of kdb+ / KDB database technology and/or experience with other NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Cassandra, Redis, Elasticsearch): fundamentals, common operational patterns, and deployment considerations.
