eXalt
Portugal · Full-time · Mid-Senior

We are looking for a Site Reliability Engineer / Application Production Support Engineer to join a big financial institution in Lisbon. This isn't your typical support role—it’s a high-octane position at the intersection of electronic trading, SRE practices, and infrastructure automation.


🛠️ The Tech Stack:

  • OS: Expert-level Linux (On-prem & AWS)
  • Automation: Python, Bash, Ansible
  • Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Dynatrace
  • CI/CD: Jenkins, GitOps
  • Environment: C++ based trading systems, FIX Protocol, TCP/IP tuning.


🎯 What You’ll Do:

  • Engine Room Operations: Rapid response to incidents in a high-pressure trading environment.
  • Eliminate Toil: Use Python and Ansible to automate repetitive tasks and modernize our platform.
  • Master Observability: Fine-tune monitoring stacks (Prometheus/Grafana) to detect anomalies before they impact the market.
  • Bridge Dev & Ops: Participate in code reviews and influence the SDLC to ensure reliability is baked in from the start.


👤 Who You Are:

  • Experienced: 5+ years in SRE, DevOps, or Production Support (Finance/Trading experience is a massive plus).
  • Troubleshooter: You have a "detective" mindset when it comes to logs, network packets, and system bottlenecks.
  • Automation-First: You’d rather write a script than do the same task twice.
  • Curious: Eager to dive into AWS, Kubernetes, and the intricacies of ultra-low latency hardware.


💎 Why Join Us?

  • Market Impact: Work on systems that power global financial markets.
  • Top-Tier Talent: Collaborate with some of the best engineers in the industry.
  • Modernization: We are heavily invested in automation, IaC, and cloud transition.
  • Growth: Long-term career paths within a premier global financial institution.
