Description
As a DevOps/SRE intern, you will be a part of a team which directly works on
projects that span every level of our technology stack at TransMarket Group.
From developing systems that automate the building, testing, and deployment of
latency-sensitive trading applications, to designing and implementing critical
back-office data flows and applications, your work will enable us to
systematically improve our software. This, in turn, will tighten feedback
loops and accelerate application development, directly contributing to
increased P&L at the firm.
While closely interacting with our global technology teams, you’ll need to
strike a careful balance between reliability and innovation. Given the breadth
of the projects you will be involved in, no two days will feel the same. The
ideal candidate will be self-driven and excited to learn about our trading
operations from top to bottom.
