Job Description :

Our partner is modernizing decades-old infrastructure in the traditional capital markets by bringing together the brightest minds in engineering and finance. Their two teams, based in Amsterdam and New York, work hand in hand to build, enhance, and operate an SEC Registered Alternative Trading System (ATS) for the $8TN+ Securities Finance Market that underpins the global financial system. Their cloud-native platform has been built entirely in-house from scratch to enhance and replace old technology stacks composed of disparate, costly, and inefficient systems. They work closely with the largest clearing house in the world, the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (the DTCC), and some of the most prominent financial institutions across the globe. Their mission is to correct a long broken market structure by providing a neutral, value-driven, full-scope offering to market participants with varying needs and requirements. Their pragmatic approach to engineering is at the heart of what they do, and they maintain the highest standards of integrity, quality of work, and transparency in all that they do. They are a small, but growing team looking for hard-working, prideful, and kind individuals to help them drive their mission forward. Behind all of this sits novel technology backed by research in the field of cryptography - and it's not blockchain! Their long term vision is that with a foundation built on core infrastructure, and a reputation built on trust, they can shepherd solutions to some of the financial worlds' largest problems through their expertise in Secure Multi-Party Computation (MPC). But first, they need to succeed in the enormous opportunity in front of them in Securities Finance. The role: They are seeking experienced Developer Operations Engineers to assist their existing team in expanding the quality, reliability, and performance of their platform. Their system architecture contains multiple components to serve the needs of a highly complex and complicated sector of the capital markets. Securities Lending workflows that are managed by their system rely on a combination of pre-trade, trade matching, ongoing life cycle management, reporting, and multiple layers and endpoints of connectivity. They have built a robust UI that sits atop all of this, along with an API layer used for direct server to server integration. You will work closely with their entire engineering and business teams, pushing forward internal and external infrastructure needs. To achieve this, you are someone passionate about delivering a high quality experience to customers, and anticipating demands of a rapidly scaling and highly complex ecosystem. Most of their engineering team is located in Amsterdam, but they're looking to hire a Devops team to operate from their New York based office to bridge the gap between the 2 time zones and teams, working closely with both the engineering team and the business / ops team.
