Job Description

I'm working with several prop trading firms in Sydney that are hiring experienced network and infrastructure engineers to design, build and run the low-latency infrastructure their trading depends on.

These are hands-on roles. You'll own the network and infrastructure across co-location sites, exchange connectivity and each firm's internal environment. That covers switching and routing, multicast market data, cross-connects and circuits, servers and hardware, and the monitoring and automation that keep everything running. Latency is measured in nanoseconds and downtime has a direct cost, so the engineering standard is high.
