Senior Site Reliability Engineer | High-Performance Trading | $400–700k TC

We're working with a market-leading proprietary trading firm building out their next-generation SRE function. This role sits at the intersection of ultra-low-latency systems, mission-critical infrastructure, and cutting-edge automation powering every millisecond of trading, globally.

You’ll partner directly with quant devs, researchers, and networking experts to design and scale high-performance systems from the ground up. That includes everything from kernel tuning and system observability to container orchestration and deployment pipelines. The scale is massive, the latency requirements unforgiving, and the impact immediate.

This isn’t a reactive firefighting role. It’s proactive, engineering-focused SRE where you’ll automate reliability, engineer for performance, and shape infrastructure strategy at the firm level.

What they’re looking for:

  • 3+ years in SRE, production engineering, or core infrastructure roles
  • Experience working in Front-Office Trading environments.
  • Deep Linux systems expertise (scheduling, networking, tuning)
  • Strong automation skills (Python)
  • Clear communicator, strong collaborator, low ego
  • New York Location
  • PermanentJob Type
  • Competitive salary
