## About the role

The financial industry is growing at a record pace, but our data providers are still stuck in the past — with cumbersome onboarding processes, complicated APIs, slow infrastructure, and expensive licensing costs.

## What they're looking for

- Strong Linux knowledge
- Experience with systems configuration and provisioning (PXE, Puppet, and Ansible preferred, Terraform)
- Understanding of storage concepts (RAID, LVM, popular filesystems, distributed storage)
- Basic networking (OSI model, IP protocols, switching/routing)
- Ability to code in Python and write shell scripts
- DevOps/GitOps mindset
