The posting

Jump Trading Group is committed to world class research. We empower exceptional talents in Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science to seek scientific boundaries, push through them, and apply cutting edge research to global financial markets. Our culture is unique. Constant innovation requires fearlessness, creativity, intellectual honesty, and a relentless competitive streak. We believe in winning together and unlocking unique individual talent by incenting collaboration and mutual respect. At Jump, research outcomes drive more than superior risk adjusted returns. We design, develop, and deploy technologies that change our world, fund start-ups across industries, and partner with leading global research organizations and universities to solve problems.

Our Production Engineering team is based in Chicago, New York, London, Singapore and Sydney with some members in smaller offices or fully remote. We operate as one global team to support Jump’s infrastructure including multiple world-leading High-Performance Computing (HPC) environments and a diverse global trading infrastructure that operates across many global financial markets. The team is responsible for everything from low level infrastructure to applications, making heavy use of both internally developed and open-source software. As a Systems Engineer, you'll have the opportunity to showcase your skills as a deeply technical resource with exceptional troubleshooting skills when required. We are looking for someone who loves learning new cutting-edge technologies and getting their hands dirty to solve challenging technical problems.

As a Systems Engineering Weekend Warrior, you will be working a modified 4- or 5-day work week that includes Saturday and Sunday to help support our infrastructure on a full-time basis. You will work the equivalent of a third of the weekends in a year (on a schedule agreed with two fellow weekend shift colleagues in your region). During "on" weekends, you will work 12-hour shifts that overlap with colleagues in the other time zone (US & APAC). You'll have two days off during the week, and on workdays, you'll work flexible hours with the rest of the Jump Production Engineering team. Worth noting, other teams have a similar setup, so you will join a virtual ‘weekend warrior’ team online all weekend in your time zone. Also, Jump’s systems are heavily automated so most of your time will be focused on project work – but you will be available for immediate troubleshooting and support as required.

What You'll Do:

  • Work on global projects across a wide range of infrastructure
  • Manage and resolve technical issues with a high degree of technical complexity
  • Develop tools that will help in diagnosing, resolving, and triaging difficult problems
  • Other duties as assigned or required (we pride ourselves on avoiding “siloing”, so this will include widely different engineering projects)
  • Work a modified work week, which includes the weekends

Skills You'll Need:

  • An insatiable desire to learn
  • Expert Linux knowledge
  • Some Networking knowledge and a willingness to learn more
  • Scripting competence with either Go or Python (and a willing to learn both)
  • Extensive experience profiling and debugging application stacks
  • Extensive experience designing, building, and maintaining complicated systems
  • Experience with system configuration management tools (Salt, Puppet, Ansible, etc.)
  • A compulsion to perform root-cause analysis
  • Reliable and predictable availability

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
