Founding Engineer

Quant Trading / Digital Assets | Fully Remote | B2B Contract

I'm working with an early-stage quantitative trading firm looking for a Senior AWS Infrastructure Engineer to take ownership of its high-performance cloud infrastructure.

This isn't a traditional DevOps position. They need someone who understands how to build and optimise AWS infrastructure for latency-sensitive, high-performance compute workloads , while also keeping a close eye on AWS cost optimisation .

What they're looking for:

• Experience supporting low-latency / high-performance compute (HPC) workloads
• Strong understanding of compute and networking performance
• Ability to identify and resolve infrastructure bottlenecks
• Proven experience with AWS cost optimisation / FinOps
• Comfortable making architecture decisions and owning infrastructure end-to-end
• Trading, HFT, electronic trading or digital-assets experience would be highly relevant

This is a fully remote B2B contract with a small, highly technical team building within the quantitative/digital-assets space.

If your background sits at the intersection of AWS + low latency/HPC + performance + cost optimisation , I'd be interested in speaking.
