In this role, you will collaborate closely with trading, risk, operations, and engineering teams to maintain high availability trading systems, support integrations with liquidity providers and internal systems, and continuously improve platform reliability. Your expertise in MetaTrader ecosystems and trading infrastructure will help sustain a secure and scalable trading platform.

Integration & Ecosystem Support

  • Support integrations between MetaTrader and internal systems such as back office, CRM, client portals, and reporting tools.
  • Assist with connectivity to liquidity providers, trading bridges, and FIX integrations.
  • Work with developers and quant teams to deploy and test Expert Advisors (EAs), plugins, and custom components.

Platform Operations & Continuous Improvement

  • Maintain separate environments (dev, test, demo, live) with structured change and release processes.
  • Plan and execute platform upgrades, patches, and configuration changes with minimal disruption to trading operations.
  • Create and maintain runbooks, SOPs, and documentation while applying DevOps/SRE practices to improve reliability.

  • Experience in brokerage, liquidity provider, prop trading, or trading technology environments.

  • Experience using MetaTrader Admin/Manager terminals for account, group, and symbol management.
  • Strong knowledge of configuring trading conditions such as leverage, margin, commissions, swaps, and spreads.
  • Experience troubleshooting plugins, bridges, and trading platform integrations.
  • Experience with Windows Server administration for MetaTrader environments and basic Linux support.
  • Familiarity with AWS infrastructure such as EC2, VPC networking, and security groups.
  • Basic scripting or automation using PowerShell, Bash, or Python.
  • Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills, particularly in time-sensitive trading environments.
  • Good communication and collaboration skills with cross-functional teams including trading, risk, and engineering.

  • Experience with monitoring tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Zabbix, CloudWatch, or ELK.
  • Exposure to CI/CD pipelines and automated deployment processes.
  • Familiarity with Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terraform or Ansible.

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.
