Algorithmic Trading, Senior Site Reliability Engineer (SRE)
About The Position
BTIG seeks a Senior Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to join our tight-knit, high-caliber engineering team. You’ll be the first dedicated SRE, responsible for the infrastructure operating our algorithmic trading systems. This is an opportunity for someone with solid infrastructure management experience but ready for more ownership—someone eager to apply their skills and be a leader in a fast-paced, high-performance environment where daily deployments and continuous iteration are the norm. Our trading systems operate in a latency-sensitive, high-throughput on-prem environment, integrating with global exchanges, market data feeds, and client order flows. You'll work closely with developers and dev ops to design and maintain systems that are highly available, scalable, and fault tolerant.
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience in SRE, DevOps, or infrastructure engineering roles
- Strong experience with both on-prem and cloud infrastructure management
- Proficiency with scripting or programming (Python, Go, Bash, etc.)
- Experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
- Solid understanding of Linux internals, networking, and system performance tuning
- Deep experience with monitoring and alerting tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, etc.)
- Familiarity with CI/CD tooling (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, etc.)
Responsibilities
- Build and manage reliable, scalable infrastructure using infrastructure-as-code principles
- Automate operational processes — monitoring, deployment, incident response, and recovery
- Instrument and monitor systems to proactively identify and fix bottlenecks and failure points
- Participate in incident responses, and postmortems
- Drive improvements in service reliability, performance, and observability
- Collaborate with software engineers to embed reliability into application design and deployment
- Continuously improve CI/CD pipelines to support faster, safer deployments
Benefits
- BTIG offers a competitive compensation and benefits package.
- Salary range is based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, location, years of applicable experience, skills, qualifications, licensure and certifications, and other business and organization needs.
