Role in brief
Dvtrading needs a Senior Cloud Engineer to manage and optimize their AWS and GCP infrastructure, with a strong emphasis on cloud networking and performance in trading environments. This role is for experienced engineers familiar with multi-cloud strategies and low-latency systems.
About the role
This role involves deep engagement with cloud infrastructure across AWS and GCP, specifically focusing on building and maintaining highly performant, low-latency systems. The engineer will be responsible for designing and implementing complex cloud networking solutions, including VPC design, hybrid connectivity, and traffic control across both major cloud providers. Success in this position means ensuring the reliability and efficiency of cloud resources for critical trading operations.
A key aspect of the work includes supporting electronic trading and other latency-sensitive workloads. This involves migrating such systems to GCP, utilizing services like Compute Engine and GKE, and managing sole-tenant nodes. The engineer will also contribute to building shared platform capabilities, driving their adoption across various engineering teams within the company.
The position demands a strong understanding of multi-cloud networking patterns, cross-cloud security posture management, and specific security models relevant to exchange APIs and crypto key custody. Familiarity with the crypto-specific threat landscape, such as API key theft and BGP hijacking, is also required to secure the cloud environment effectively.
The annual salary for this position ranges from $210,000 to $260,000 USD.
