About the Role
You will keep production clearing infrastructure running by monitoring systems, responding to incidents, supporting deployments, and building tooling. You'll sit between operations and engineering, working across databases, containers, cloud services, and internal scripts. This is hands-on systems work in a regulated clearing environment where uptime and correctness directly affect capital flows. You'll carry on-call responsibilities, and since clearing infrastructure runs on market schedules, you may need to provide coverage outside standard business hours.
Requirements
- Linux proficiency: command line, log analysis, process management, system configuration
- Experience monitoring production systems and responding to alerts (Grafana, Prometheus, or similar)
- Comfort supporting production deployments and releases
- Incident response instincts: triage, diagnose, resolve, document
- Cloud infrastructure experience (AWS preferred)
- Containers and orchestration: Docker and either Kubernetes or Nomad
- Shell/Bash scripting for automation and operational tooling
- Working knowledge of PostgreSQL or MySQL: writing queries, reading schemas, understanding data flows
- Ability to trace issues through application logs, database state, and system metrics
- Proficiency in at least one programming language
- Background in Rust or Haskell is a plus but not required
