DevOps Engineer – Database Platforms
vor 1 Woche
Qube Research & Technologies (QRT) is a global quantitative and systematic investment manager, operating in all liquid asset classes across the world. We are a technology and data driven group implementing a scientific approach to investing. Combining data, research, technology and trading expertise has shaped QRT's collaborative mindset which enables us to solve the most complex challenges. QRT's culture of innovation continuously drives our ambition to deliver high quality returns for our investors.
We operate one of the most demanding data infrastructures in finance, with distributed systems spanning multiple database backends, streaming platforms, thousands of tables, and near-100% availability requirements. Our environment is primarily on-prem, with a strong focus on standardization, automation, and Kubernetes-based orchestration where it adds real value.
We're looking for a DevOps Engineer to help us operate, scale, and evolve our database platforms reliably, securely, and with high performance while partnering closely with engineering and data teams.
Your future role within QRT
- Own the reliability of database platforms, including availability, performance, backups, restores, replication, upgrades, capacity planning, and incident response.
- Automate database operations such as provisioning, patching, migrations, schema changes, maintenance windows, and safe, auditable rollouts.
- Build and maintain on-prem infrastructure foundations: compute, storage, networking, security hardening, observability, and disaster recovery.
- Support Kubernetes adoption for data workloads by defining patterns for stateful services, operators, storage classes, resource management, and safe lifecycle practices.
- Define and enforce operational guardrails, including access controls, secrets management, change management workflows, and runbooks.
- Partner with internal users (data platform, engineering, researchers) to improve self-service capabilities and reduce operational friction without compromising safety.
Your present skillset
- Strong experience operating production databases (PostgreSQL and/or ClickHouse are a plus; other robust database technologies are also welcome).
- A reliability-first mindset, with attention to latency, correctness, recovery objectives, and the realities of running 24/7 systems.
- Solid experience with Linux and on-prem environments, with a good understanding of how compute, storage, and networking impact database behavior.
- Experience with automation and Infrastructure-as-Code tools (e.g. Terraform, Ansible, Helm, GitOps-style workflows).
- Familiarity with Kubernetes, particularly for stateful workloads, or a strong motivation to deepen your expertise in this area.
- Ability to debug complex systems end-to-end, from application queries down to kernel, network, and storage lay.
Nice to have
- Experience with high-throughput and/or low-latency data systems.
- Strong observability skills (metrics, logs, traces, alerting, SLOs).
- Experience building internal platforms or self-service tooling.
- Programming skills (Python, Go, Rust, or similar) to build automation and operational tools.
QRT is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome diversity as essential to our success. QRT empowers employees to work openly and respectfully to achieve collective success. In addition to professional achievement, we are offering initiatives and programs to enable employees achieve a healthy work-life balance.
