Deep Systems | Senior DevOps Engineer | Remote EMEA, APAC, and Americas | Full-time

I am building a DevOps team at a capital markets tech company most people haven't heard of — but some of the world's biggest financial institutions run on our platform. 300B+ messages/day. 99.99% uptime. Mostly on-prem, Linux, purpose-built hardware.

You'd be working on systems support, tooling, and helping build a custom observability platform in Python — because off-the-shelf monitoring doesn't cut it at this scale.

Capital markets / FIX experience is a plus, not a requirement. Appetite for learning is.

The vibe: small global team (US/APAC/EMEA), fully async, deeply technical. Leadership still codes. No hand-holding, no fluff.

Mainly focused on US and EMEA hires (we currently have people clustered in Belfast and North Macedonia); for APAC, we have solid leads. We don't have salary expectations to publish. We are open to different engagements given regional and your personal factors, including contract, W-2, contract-to-hire, etc.

Senior IC role, report to me directly.

I would recommend the Jane Street youtube channel, the ocamal focused ones in my opinion you can skip. But otherwise their engineering videos will give you a good sense of it. When it comes to low latency systems this is a very private ecosystem. There are some open source projects for learning some of the mechanics of trading, market data and the order to settlement lifecycle. I am not aware of any being built for low latency.

Market data ingest, analysis and resulting order execution is chewing through way more data way faster than any banking transaction system. I have worked on both of them.

If you want more in the weeds but still high level I gave a talk on the main concepts and systems you need to know to code low latency for markets. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1HIPJb0XX3JDHEYSrZC8v...
