Full Job Description

Quantiq specializes in high frequency derivatives trading in the largest markets worldwide. Our approach is rigorous and pragmatic, driven by technological expertise and analytics informed by real-world experience. We value employees who love to learn and have the tenacity, curiosity and willpower to contribute to our continuing success.

We are a small but passionate team, dedicated to enhancing and refining our tried and true methods as we commit to our ongoing growth and performance.

Quantiq runs considerable "in-house" infrastructure (IPA realm) consisting of 50-100 computers ranging from high performance servers and varied datacenter hardware (switches, FPGAs, fiber optic cabling), to desktop computers with dedicated GPUs and an array of monitors and peripherals across offices.

Quantiq controls the majority of the stack and creates, maintains, updates, and monitors a variety of systems to keep the company's trading operational. Within our hardware infrastructure we run entirely on Fedora Linux and have significant first and third party software that requires occasional maintenance. This complete infrastructure has high uptime requirements to support our trading operations.

Role Description:

As a System Administrator, you will be responsible for keeping all internal infrastructure, both hardware and software, running smoothly and supporting the operations and software teams on a day-to-day basis.

You will be responsible for full system life cycles: provisioning, install and setup, asset and inventory management, maintenance, monitoring, and decommission of a variety of systems. You will also deal with vendors to acquire new hardware and deploy it. You may occasionally find yourself setting up a desktop or monitor in addition to racking servers. If the following resonates with you, we would love to welcome you to our team.

Job Responsibilities:

Troubleshoot and monitor proprietary frameworks/code and third-party systems
Manage access credentials to a variety of applications and trading systems
Exhibit cautious and responsible use of sysadmin privileges
Make infrequent trips to our Austin and Chicago datacenters to maintain hardware
Create, document, and enforce backup procedures and failovers in all systems
Run drills/trials and improve failure tolerances across infrastructure
Assist with onboarding new hires to in-house systems and infrastructure
Respond to issues and requests from the Operations and Technical teams

Qualifications:

5+ years of experience in a Linux-based admin role, or equivalent
Attention to detail in a fast-paced environment
Ability to respond to occasional off-hour emergencies
Excellent organizational skills and strong written and verbal communication skills
Exceptional capability debugging and solving complex issues related to both hardware, low level software, and networking
Ability to perform Bash and Python scripting
Basic networking tool experience (ping, ifconfig, telnet, wireshark, nmcli)
Knowledge of network architecture is a plus
Experience with the following technologies:
- Computer hardware (such as Supermicro and Dell Servers)
- Networking hardware
- Fedora Linux
- FreeIPA, OpenLDAP, OpenVPN
- DNS
- ZFS
- Gitea, Zulip
- GRUB, PXE

Note: You are not expected to know every technology listed but experience in all is a plus

Please Apply If:

You run a home lab for fun and enjoy the sound of server fans
You are a problem solver who wants to understand the intricacies of a complex system
You are a distro hopper and can discuss the nuances of your preferred distribution
You are the type of person to remember the IP address of a certain machine on your network
You love to see nicely organized, color-coded, and labeled cables
Friends and family call you for tech support and you fix their problems

Please note: The use of AI tools during applications, assessments, and interviews is strictly prohibited. Quantiq utilizes various methods to determine candidate authenticity. Use of these tools at any time may result in the disqualification of your candidacy.
