Description

We are seeking a skilled and experienced engineer to join the platform engineering team. The role

will focus on integrating, testing, securing, and improving multiple infrastructure codebases, with

a particular emphasis on vulnerability remediation, code hardening, automated validation, and

safe production rollout.

This is not a simple “follow the requirement and apply a fix” role. We are looking for a self-starter

who can operate effectively in a complex engineering environment. The successful candidate will

need to understand complex distributed systems, assess the broader impact of security

changes, design robust remediation approaches, and produce stable, maintainable, and futureproof

secure code. They will also be expected to define appropriate test plans, validate changes

in lab environments, and support production rollout with a focus on minimizing risk and stability

impact.

You Will

• Work across multiple infrastructure and automation codebases to remediate identified

security vulnerabilities.

• Design, implement, and validate secure, stable, and maintainable code changes.

• Work as an integration engineer, connecting vendor, open-source, and internally

developed solutions into the firm’s infrastructure platform.

• Develop and maintain automation using Python and related tooling.

• Build and improve CI/CD pipelines, automated test coverage, and release validation

processes.

• Create test plans and validation procedures for security-related code and configuration

changes.

• Use lab and pre-production environments to test complex changes before production

rollout.

• Collaborate with engineering, operations, security, and application teams to assess

impact and drive remediation to completion.

• Participate in code reviews, design discussions, documentation, and technical planning.

• Contribute to the ongoing improvement of platform reliability, security posture, and

engineering practices.

You Have

• Strong Linux engineering skills, including configuration, troubleshooting, system-level

diagnostics, and operational support.

• Solid understanding of distributed systems and the challenges involved in changing,

testing, and operating them safely.

• Strong Python development skills, with the ability to write robust, maintainable,

production-quality code.

• Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, automated testing frameworks, and release

automation.

• Experience with both automated and manual testing approaches.

• Ability to create practical test plans, validation procedures, and rollout plans for complex

technical changes.

• Experience working with large-scale production environments and an understanding of

operational risk.

• Good understanding of security principles, vulnerability remediation, secure coding, and

system hardening.

• Strong troubleshooting skills across operating systems, infrastructure services,

automation, networking, and application integration points.

• Ability to work independently, take ownership, and drive complex problems through to

resolution.

• Strong communication skills, including the ability to explain technical risks, options, and

recommendations clearly.

You May Have

• Experience with Perl in addition to Python.

• Experience with infrastructure-as-code and configuration management tools such as

Ansible, SaltStack, or similar.

• Experience with VMware ESXi, virtualization platforms, or private cloud infrastructure.

• Experience with vulnerability management, security scanning tools, remediation

workflows, and audit/compliance requirements.
