We’re looking for a Network Engineer to join our Trading Infrastructure team. You will work on end-to-end network tasks: from new site and provider connectivity to validation, troubleshooting, and performance bottleneck analysis. The role is focused on low-latency and performance-sensitive environments and involves close collaboration with vendors, carriers, systems and hardware engineers.

What You’ll be doing

  • • Design, build, and operate network connectivity for trading infrastructure across colocation sites and regions

  • • Deliver end-to-end network setups: cross-connects, routing, validation testing, and go-live readiness

  • • Investigate and resolve complex network issues affecting latency, jitter, packet loss, or reliability

  • • Identify and address bottlenecks across the stack together with systems and hardware engineers

  • • Support timing-sensitive networking (PTP/NTP): bring-up, validation, monitoring, and troubleshooting

  • • Work on connectivity to cloud providers

  • • Improve repeatability through automation, templates, and tooling

  • • Contribute to operational readiness: runbooks, checklists, incident reviews (RCA), inventory and documentation

  • • Participate in scheduled on-call rotations to support network operations and incident response

What we look for in you

  • • Hands-on experience operating and troubleshooting production networks, Linux and NGFW

  • • Solid understanding of routing and switching fundamentals (BGP, OSPF, VLANs, L2/L3 design)

  • • Good understanding of how networks impact system and application performance

  • • Ability to work end-to-end and collaborate across domains (systems, hardware, vendors)

  • • Automation mindset; scripting experience (Python/Bash) is a plus

  • • Passion for technology and continuous learning

  • Nice-to-Have:

  • • Experience in low-latency or performance-sensitive environments (trading, exchanges, market data)

  • • Colocation and provider connectivity experience (cross-connects, optics, acceptance testing)

  • • Experience with cloud connectivity (Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, Cloud Interconnect, etc.)

  • • PTP/NTP experience and understanding of timing-related failure modes

  • • CCNP-level (CCNP SP / CCNP DC / CCNP Ent knowledge or equivalent hands-on experience

  • Why should you join our team?

  • • Exciting challenges with ample opportunities for personal and professional growth

  • • A welcoming international team of highly qualified professionals

  • • Cutting-edge hardware and technology

  • • Work remotely from anywhere in the world

  • • Access any of our global offices anytime

  • • Flexible schedule

  • • 40 paid days off

  • • Competitive salary
