fiber infrastructure)

Work closely with network, systems, and trading infrastructure engineers on deployments, upgrades, and capacity planning

Maintain accurate documentation: rack elevations, asset inventory, cabling maps, change logs, and operational procedures

Monitor environmental conditions, power usage, and cooling; proactively identify and mitigate risks

Coordinate with colocation providers, smart-hands, and third-party vendors for onsite works and projects

Follow strict change management, security, and compliance processes in a regulated trading environment
