Network Engineer

Chicago, Il 60606

The Network Engineers in the Trading Infrastructure team are responsible for designing, implementing and supporting the WAN, LANs and all low-latency connectivity to trading venues. They work closely with our Systems Engineers, other teams and external parties to provide best in class infrastructure solutions supporting our trading business.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Design, implement and support the North America networking infrastructure. Key areas include Low-latency networking, Unicast and Multicast routing, OSPF, BGP, PIM SM, as well as things like QoS, STP, NAT, protocol tuning, etc.

Monitor, guard and analyze the proper functioning of our network infrastructure. Take adaptive, retentive and corrective measures and perform structural maintenance.

Proactively improve our infrastructure by contributing scripts and code to our automation efforts (e.g. Bash, Python).

Accurately create and maintain documentation detailing the implemented network components, as well as relevant procedures and other documentation.

Responsibility for our IT security related platforms. Key areas include Palo Alto firewalls, Juniper MAG SSL gateways, VPNs, Security policies, etc.

Work flexible hours. We are proud of the uptime of the trading environment, so every now and then you will be working outside of regular business hours to apply critical changes. This could be from your desk, your couch at home or also inside of one of our datacenters abroad.

Liaise with external vendors, exchanges and providers to explore new technology solutions, implement new services or troubleshoot problems.
