- Deep expertise in containerization and orchestration technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Strong programming skills in languages common to high-performance computing, such as C++ and Python.
- Prior experience in a similar role within the financial industry (e.g., running largescale Monte Carlo simulations, VaR calculations, or XVA pricing grids) is highly desirable.
- A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
- A strong background in distributed systems, performance tuning, and infrastructure-as-code principles.
- Exceptional problem-solving skills, with an ability to diagnose and resolve complex issues in a high-pressure, large-scale environment.
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively with quantitative research, trading, and risk management teams.
