Job Description

Join us to build and operate the infrastructure foundation behind mission-critical, real-time trading systems with demanding reliability and tail-latency requirements.

This is primarily a platform and infrastructure role. You will work on the runtime and operational environment behind performance-sensitive systems across cloud and physical infrastructure. The scope includes AWS, Linux hosts, networking, containerized runtimes, observability, deployment safety, and, where needed, dedicated hardware.

In this role you will:

  • Own infrastructure end to end across cloud and physical environments, including AWS, Linux hosts, networking, containers, and runtime operations
  • Design and improve infrastructure for performance-sensitive services, supported by repeatable production-like benchmarks covering throughput, burst behaviour, and p50, p95, p99, and p99.9 latency
  • Design, operate, and troubleshoot critical network paths across VPCs, routing, security groups, load balancers, DNS, private connectivity, and service-to-service communication
  • Build and improve infrastructure as code, host lifecycle management, and deployment workflows across development, staging, and production
  • Improve reliability, failover, recovery, and operational safety across Linux-based runtimes, containers, serverless workloads, event-driven flows, and scheduled processing
  • Harden platform capabilities around IAM, KMS, secrets, service connectivity, and secure operational access
  • Raise the standard of observability through dashboards, alerting, tracing, health checks, readiness checks, and incident tooling
  • Partner with software engineers on reusable infrastructure patterns, production readiness, CI/CD, and incident response

Qualifications

  • A university degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a comparable practical background
  • Experience with dedicated host strategies, low-latency networking, CPU pinning, host-level isolation techniques
  • Strong experience owning production infrastructure for distributed or real-time systems
  • Strong hands-on experience with AWS, especially EC2, VPC networking, IAM, KMS, S3, SQS, SNS, and related operational tooling
  • Strong hands-on networking experience, including routing, DNS, load balancers, network security, service connectivity, and debugging complex production traffic paths
  • Strong experience with Terraform and infrastructure lifecycle management
  • Deep knowledge of Linux systems, containers, runtime debugging, and host-level performance tuning
  • Experience operating performance-sensitive workloads where predictability and tail-latency matter, not only average throughput
  • Experience with infrastructure patterns for stateful services, active/standby failover, recovery, deployment safety, and controlled cutovers
  • Strong analytical thinking, pragmatic decision-making, and clear communication across engineering and operational stakeholders
  • Nice to have:
  • Experience supporting Rust-based service environments
  • Experience in regulated, security-sensitive, or high-reliability environments

Additional Information

  • Be part of one of the fastest-growing and most visible Fintech startups in Europe, creating innovative services that have a substantial impact on the lives of our customers
  • Work with an international, diverse, inclusive, and ever-growing team that loves creating the best products for our clients
  • Be productive with the latest hardware and tools
  • Learn and grow by joining our in-house knowledge sharing sessions and spending your individual Education Budget
  • Flexible vacation policy and the opportunity to work from abroad
  • Benefit from an attractive compensation package and from the company pension scheme
  • Say goodbye to order commissions and say hello to your complimentary subscription of Scalable Capital's PRIME+ Broker
  • Enjoy flexible and discounted sports activities with Urban Sports Club

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.
