We Offer:
Exceptional trading emerges where human intuition meets frictionless experimentation. Our platform and processes enable traders to rapidly investigate ideas, identify emergent patterns, and convert insights into live strategies. This synthesis creates a flywheel of discovery—the key to our pursuit of excellence.
As a foundational engineer on our Corporate Technology team, you will be the architect and steward of the internal systems that empower our employees and secure our firm. Your mission is to solidify the operational and security foundations that will enable us to grow our business efficiently and safely. You will have broad ownership over our corporate identity, endpoint management, and security posture, while partnering with our exceptional network and Linux engineering teams.
This is a role for a strategic, hands-on engineer who thinks like an owner. You are equally comfortable designing a zero-trust security framework and automating a complex user lifecycle process. You will be a senior individual contributor with the opportunity and help us build an exceptional function.
- Design and Own Corporate Systems: Take strategic ownership of our corporate technology stack, from budget planning to lifecycle management, procurement, and policy governance. Design, plan, and implement integrated solutions that are secure, scalable, and resilient.
- Engineer for Security and Stability: Evolve our security posture by establishing robust governance frameworks and implementing a zero-trust security model. Proactively tune systems for maximum performance, troubleshoot complex issues, and serve as the engineering lead for corporate operations.
- Automate Everything: Champion an engineering-first approach to corporate IT. Leverage scripting and automation frameworks to eliminate manual work, streamline processes, and improve reliability.
- Manage Identity and Endpoints: Administer our hybrid identity environment (Active Directory, Entra ID) and manage our fleet of company assets through modern MDM platforms. Ensure a strong security posture for all end-user devices.
- Empower Our Users: Serve as the primary technical owner and escalation point for all corporate technology, ensuring our team has a seamless and productive experience.
You Bring:
- Experience: You have 6–8+ years of experience in systems or infrastructure engineering within enterprise environments.
- Core Competencies:
- Identity & Directory Services: Strong proficiency in Windows Server, Active Directory, Azure AD/Entra, and DNS/DHCP. Experience with modern IAM/IDP/MFA platforms is a plus.
- Endpoint Management (MDM): Hands-on experience with MDM platforms like Intune, Jamf, or Workspace ONE, with deep expertise in macOS and Windows system hardening.
- Network Engineering: Experience managing network infrastructure (switching, routing, wireless) using platforms like Arista and Fortinet. Strong knowledge of firewalls, VPNs, network segmentation, and wireless protocols (EAP-TLS, RADIUS).
- Cloud Administration: Solid background in managing and securing corporate services within AWS, GCP, or Azure.
- Security Principles: A solid understanding of cybersecurity, zero-trust principles, and compliance frameworks. Familiarity with Zscaler, CyberArk, or similar tools is preferred.
- Scripting & Automation: Proven experience with scripting and automation tools to manage systems at scale. Exposure to Terraform or Ansible is a plus.
- Mindset:
- Pragmatic Owner: You are comfortable with both high-level strategy and hands-on implementation.
- Security-First: You approach every problem with a security-first mindset.
- Driven by Impact: You are motivated to create a frictionless, high-performance environment for your colleagues.
