Overview
Susquehanna is a global quantitative trading firm powered by scientific rigor, curiosity, and innovation. Our culture is intellectually driven and highly collaborative, bringing together researchers, engineers, and traders to design and deploy impactful strategies in our systematic trading environment. To meet the unique challenges of global markets, Susquehanna applies machine learning and advanced quantitative research to vast datasets in order to uncover actionable insights and build effective strategies. By uniting deep market expertise with cutting-edge technology, we excel in solving complex problems and pushing boundaries together.
We’re looking for a Data Reliability Engineer to help keep our trading and data platforms running seamlessly. In this role, you’ll be the guardian of our data pipelines — ensuring that trading critical Airflow workflows and Python-based jobs run smoothly, on time, and with precision. You’ll dive deep into incidents when they happen, diagnose issues quickly, and make the fixes that keep downstream systems healthy and reliable. Your work will directly support the speed and stability our trading teams depend on every day.
You’ll collaborate closely with quantitative researchers, data and reliability engineers, and developers to review changes, manage releases, and strengthen our overall deployment practices. Beyond keeping things running, you’ll help make them better — improving monitoring, alerts, and recovery processes while automating wherever possible. This role is perfect for someone who thrives on ownership, loves solving complex operational puzzles, and is passionate about building robust, high-performance data systems that never miss a beat.
