The company operates in the financial sector and has a strong AI-oriented culture. Artificial intelligence is used in a practical way to support daily work, automate repetitive tasks, improve efficiency, and speed up delivery. As part of the recruitment process, the candidate’s AI mindset will also be assessed, including openness to using modern AI tools, ability to critically evaluate AI-generated outputs, responsible usage, and readiness to identify areas where AI can improve engineering, operations, automation, and incident management.

Responsibilities

• Help define and promote SRE practices, standards, and operating principles across engineering teams.
• Improve reliability, scalability, and performance of production systems and trading-related platforms.
• Build and enhance monitoring, logging, tracing, and observability solutions.
• Work with tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Tempo, and OpenTelemetry.
• Review application reliability requirements within Kubernetes-based environments.
• Support better configuration of services with regard to performance, cost, resilience, and operational stability.
• Create automation and internal tools to simplify deployments, health checks, recovery processes, and routine operational tasks.
• Cooperate with development teams to improve fault tolerance, service ownership, and production readiness.
