DRW is a diversified trading firm with over 3 decades of experience bringing sophisticated technology and exceptional people together to operate in markets around the world. We value autonomy and the ability to quickly pivot to capture opportunities, so we operate using our own capital and trading at our own risk.
Headquartered in Chicago with offices throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, we trade a variety of asset classes including Fixed Income, ETFs, Equities, FX, Commodities and Energy across all major global markets. We have also leveraged our expertise and technology to expand into three non-traditional strategies: real estate, venture capital and cryptoassets.
We operate with respect, curiosity and open minds. The people who thrive here share our belief that it’s not just what we do that matters–it's how we do it. DRW is a place of high expectations, integrity, innovation and a willingness to challenge consensus.
The Container Infrastructure team provides scalable on-premises cloud and application orchestration services for DRW’s trading desks, data scientists, and enterprise application teams. Our goal is to enable teams to keep focused on their business goals by providing simple, scalable solutions with off the shelf tools and the right amount of focused engineering. The Container Infrastructure team is looking for a Service Reliability Engineer (SRE) who can work with other teams and trading desks to successfully onboard applications and services to our Kubernetes infrastructure. The SRE will also provide ongoing support of existing toolchains and evaluate new tools and processes to enable our teams to deploy faster, more reliably, and with less human intervention.
Our philosophy:

- We have the curiosity and drive to dig deep and find creative solutions.
- We believe our goal is to find the right solution rather than always being right.
- We give developers the tools and guidance to positively impact the business.

- Experience automating deployments and image builds using CI/CD pipelines and a variety of languages.
- Familiarity with AWS managed services (EKS, S3, EC2, etc)
- A service focused attitude: you ask questions and focus on getting the right resources and solutions to people instead of rigid boundaries.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.

- Experience with Flux, Fluent Bit/Fluentd, Prometheus, Ingress-Nginx, Cilium, Terraform/Terragrunt.
- Experience developing, deploying, and supporting full stack web applications.
