  • Create simple, consistent interfaces over complex global infrastructure

  • Design for performance, reliability, scalability and operability

  • Partner with investment and technology teams to shape and deliver solutions

  • Own systems from architecture and implementation through deployment and support

  • Diagnose complex software and distributed-systems issues

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience

  • Strong proficiency in C++ and Linux

  • Experience with microservices or asynchronous, multithreaded applications

  • Strong system design, debugging and problem-solving skills

  • Ability to own production systems in a fast-paced environment

  • Clear communication and confidence working directly with stakeholders

  • Experience building highly available distributed systems at scale

Nice to Have

  • Knowledge of storage, scheduling, orchestration or service platforms

  • Familiarity with database internals, indexing, SQL or data formats such as Arrow, Parquet or Protocol Buffers

  • Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, Slurm or cloud platforms
