From Maven's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Senior Platform Engineer
Maven is a market-leading proprietary trading firm deploying its own capital across discretionary, systematic, and market-making strategies. Backed by deep expertise in trading, technology, and research, we are relentlessly focused on improving liquidity across global listed derivatives. Through advanced execution and pricing technologies, we improve how financial markets operate.
Maven has a culture that is relaxed and informal but highly rewarding of strong performance. We have offices in London, Amsterdam, Hong Kong, New York and Chicago. Technology is central to how the firm trades, and the people who join get real ownership of what they work on.
Platform Engineering builds and operates the environment Maven's applications run on: 22 Kubernetes clusters across Europe, the US and Asia, all on-premises, supporting over 1,100 production deployments for 44 teams and desks.
Teams own their own applications and deploy them themselves. Our job is to build the systems and ways of working that let them do that without coming through us: hosted developer environments, a safe path to production, and the clusters those workloads land on. Linux and networking sit with dedicated teams; we sit between that layer and the people building on top of it. We still get pulled into production problems that cut across stacks, but the aim is always the same: turn a recurring need into something a team can do themselves.
This role is based in our Chicago office. You work US hours with the desks here: understand what they are trying to do, turn that into something they can run themselves, and deal with the production problems that cannot wait for London.
You will work with Platform colleagues in London and Asia, and with the Chicago infrastructure and trading technology teams.
A great engineering environment whereby technology is key to our success.
The upside of start-up without the associated risks.
A great, friendly, informal, and highly rewarding culture.
Informal dress code, loads of free food and social events.
Fast-growing global firm with plenty of opportunity where you will have significant impact.

Salary Range: $150000 - $200000, plus a discretionary bonus.
