Senior DevOps Engineer

About the Position

Our client, a newly established proprietary trading firm operating as an AI-first organization, is building sophisticated trading systems designed for massive scale and performance.

They are seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer who takes full ownership - someone who thinks in systems, builds with scalability and resilience in mind, and takes pride in creating reliable, production-grade infrastructure. This is a role for an engineer who cares as deeply about automation, cloud infrastructure, security, and system reliability as they do about the quality and efficiency of every deployment.

You’ll play a critical role in designing, optimising, and maintaining high-performance infrastructure that underpins intelligent, data-driven trading at scale. You’ll help build robust CI/CD pipelines, improve system observability and reliability, and ensure infrastructure can scale securely and efficiently as the business grows.
