Network Engineer (Trading Infrastructure)

Location: Remote

Department: Infrastructure

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
