  • Drive platform engineering initiatives that improve developer experience and reduce manual support requests.
  • Leverage AI tools as part of daily engineering workflows and problem-solving.


Skills & Experience

  • Strong AWS experience within production environments.
  • Deep Kubernetes expertise, including managing and supporting production clusters.
  • Hands-on experience with Terraform and Ansible.
  • Strong Linux administration and troubleshooting skills.
  • Strong scripting ability in Python, Go or Bash.
  • Experience with observability and monitoring tools such as Prometheus and Grafana.
  • Ability to take ownership of problems from identification through to resolution.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to thrive in a highly autonomous remote environment.
  • Experience within crypto, trading, fintech, market-making or other high-availability environments is highly desirable.


Why Join?

  • Work alongside some exceptionally strong infrastructure and platform engineers.
  • High autonomy with direct ownership of impactful projects.
  • Fully remote environment with a strong culture of trust and flexibility.
  • Flat organisational structure with direct access to leadership and technical decision-makers.
  • Solve challenging problems at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, automation and trading technology.
  • AI-forward engineering culture with strong adoption of modern tooling.
  • Competitive compensation package with significant bonus upside.


If you're a hands-on infrastructure engineer who enjoys ownership, automation and building platforms that power real-world systems at scale, I'd love to hear from you.
