    Optiver Chicago's culture parallels the energetic city we're immersed in. Home to the Chicago Board of Trade, Chicago Board Options Exchange, and Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Chicago has established itself as the trading capital of the US. Active on leading US exchanges, Optiver's Chicago office trades a wide range of products from listed derivatives to cash equities, ETFs, bonds and foreign exchange.

    What you'll do:

    • Build production environment monitoring infrastructure, focusing on incident management and operations visibility
    • Build tooling or infrastructure to reduce overhead and increase reliability through the production management space
    • Work with stakeholders to establish or improve feedback loops across all aspects of production management
    • Work collaboratively with engineers in our global offices to align our production environments
    • Mentor junior team members and help foster the growth of the next generation of engineers

    Who you are:

    • Bachelor's degree in CS or related technical field
    • Strong experience with programming (Python would be beneficial)
    • Broad understanding of the wider technology including networks, hardware, OS, databases, web servers and applications
    • Experience with CI/CD tooling to assist with production change pipelines
    • This team currently utilizes Ansible, Django, Flask and Jenkins so any previous experience with these technologies would be beneficial but not required
    • Previous experience in production management would be beneficial
    • Ability to bring an improvement mindset and critical eye to complex operational challenges and systems
    • Specific knowledge of the trading/finance industry is not required

    What you'll get:

    • Work alongside best-in-class professionals from over 40 different countries.
    • Performance based bonus structure that is unmatched anywhere in the industry. We combine our profits across desks, teams and offices into a global profit pool fostering a truly collaborative environment to work in.
    • Ownership over initiatives that directly solve business problems.

    Alongside this you will get great other benefits such as 25 paid vacation days and market holidays, fully paid health insurance, daily breakfast and lunch, training opportunities, 401(k) match up to 50% and charitable match opportunities, regular social events and clubs, and many more.

    At Optiver, we are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment of mutual respect.
