Job Summary:
Squarepoint is seeking a Platform Specialist to join our global Platform Compute (PLC) team. This role is ideal for experienced engineers with a strong software development background who are passionate about building scalable, resilient infrastructure systems. You will architect, develop, and optimize compute platforms that support our high-performance, data-intensive workloads. You'll work closely with global engineering teams to design and implement infrastructure-as-code, observability pipelines, and self-healing systems. This is a hands-on engineering role with a solid emphasis on automation, performance tuning, and developer enablement.
Main Duties & Responsibilities:
- Architect and evolve scalable compute platforms using modern infrastructure engineering practices.
- Design and implement automation frameworks for provisioning, configuration management, and lifecycle operations.
- Develop internal tooling and APIs to abstract infrastructure complexity and improve productivity.




- Take part in bulk server provisioning which may include using remote hands to complete tasks.
- Drive observability initiatives by building and integrating telemetry pipelines (metrics, logs, traces).
- Collaborate with software engineering teams to ensure infrastructure supports application scalability, reliability, and security.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to engineering best practices across the team.
- Participate in on-call, incident response and postmortems, driving long-term improvements through automation and architectural changes.
Qualifications/Skills Desired:
- Expert-level Linux systems administration (RHEL/Cent OS/Ubuntu)
- Configuration management (e.g., Ansible, Chef, Salt Stack)
- Proficient in Python, Go, or Rust for infrastructure tooling
- Experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure (compute, storage, networking, IAM)
- Infrastructure-as-Code (e.g., Terraform, Pulumi)
- Monitoring and alerting (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, Zabbix)
- Logging
