Senior Infrastructure Engineer – Luxembourg


The Senior Infrastructure Engineer brings expert-level knowledge in systems architecture and infrastructure engineering. This role sets standards for tools and techniques used across infrastructure platforms and oversees the full lifecycle of infrastructure delivery — from design and deployment to testing and support. The engineer is responsible for building and maintaining robust, secure, and scalable infrastructure systems, with a strong emphasis on middleware, automation, and cloud technologies.


Responsibilities

You will play a key role in designing and supporting infrastructure across the Post-Trade IT landscape. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Designing, deploying, and maintaining Web server (httpd), Application Server (RedHat JBoss EAP), and other middleware components (e.g., Terraform/IaC resources, RedHat JBoss A-MQ, Kafka), across both on-premise and public cloud environments using IaaS and PaaS models.
  • Evaluating and integrating new infrastructure solutions and emerging technologies, with a focus on cloud architecture (IaaS/PaaS/SaaS), APIs, security, high availability, data replication, and operational resilience.
  • Developing and maintaining automation frameworks, infrastructure-as-code scripts, and DevOps pipelines, including comprehensive documentation.
  • Supporting approximately six major production deployments annually (typically scheduled on Saturdays).
  • Collaborating independently with development, infrastructure, and information security teams to ensure successful delivery and integration.
  • Documenting infrastructure architecture and security models, particularly for critical internet-facing systems.
  • Working closely with other domain experts and reporting to the Head of Unit.


Required Skills and Experience

  • Master’s degree (or equivalent) in Computer Science or a related field.
  • Proven experience configuring, deploying, and supporting Web and middleware infrastructure on Linux systems, particularly httpd and RedHat JBoss EAP.
  • Deep understanding of multi-tier infrastructure challenges, especially in high availability, security, and transaction management.
  • Ability to make, justify, and challenge infrastructure design decisions.
  • Practical knowledge of TLS (PKI), including middleware configuration and certificate/key management.
  • Strong ability to document infrastructure and security architecture; excellent technical writing skills in English.


Technologies:

  • httpd Web server
  • Java application server on Linux (preferably RedHat JBoss EAP)
  • Apache Maven
  • IntelliJ and/or Eclipse IDE
  • Linux OS
  • OpenID Connect SSO
  • Git
  • Public cloud platforms and APIs (preferably Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform)


Additional Assets

  • Experience with infrastructure-related Java/JakartaEE components
  • Familiarity with RedHat OpenShift, ActiveMQ/JBoss A-MQ, Kafka, Ansible, Jenkins, Docker, Kubernetes
  • French and German language skills are a plus
