• Incident response mindset: Ability to diagnose production issues methodically, drive root-cause analysis, and feed into post-mortems and operational improvement
• AI-agent readiness: Openness to working alongside AI coding agents and LLM-powered tools as part of the development workflow - using AI as a force multiplier for code generation, review, debugging, and documentation
• Nice to Have:
  • Python mastery: Advanced knowledge of Python internals, concurrency (asyncio, threading, multiprocessing), performance profiling, packaging, and strong experience with frameworks such as FastAPI/Flask, SQLAlchemy, pytest, and mypy/type annotations
  • Observability and distributed tracing: Experience with monitoring and observability stacks - metrics, structured logging, distributed tracing (OpenTelemetry, Grafana, ELK) - for diagnosing system behavior and bottlenecks in production
  • DevOps practices: Familiarity with containerization (Docker), CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI, Jenkins), and infrastructure-as-code (Ansible, Terraform)
  • Programming language versatility: Proficiency in additional languages that complement data platform work - C++ for performance-critical systems, Scala for distributed data processing with Apache Spark, or Rust for high-performance data engineering
  • Team leadership and management: Experience leading a development team, running sprints, conducting code reviews, mentoring engineers, and managing stakeholders' expectations
  • Message queues and streaming: Experience with Kafka, Redis, or similar event-driven architectures
  • Data orchestration: Exposure to Airflow or similar workflow orchestration frameworks

The Role: We're seeking a Senior Site Reliability Engineer to join the team. You will build and operate the infrastructure and tooling behind WorldQuant's data ingestion pipelines — systems that onboard, validate, and deliver large-scale datasets to the firm's research platform. This is a 70% build / 30% operate role. You'll spend most of your time engineering automation, observability, and developer tooling, while also participating in on-call rotations and incident response for production data pipelines. You'll partner with engineering, analyst, and research teams to ensure reliability at scale — this requires excellent analytical skills, clear communication, and the ability to collaborate across teams.

What You'll Do:

Build (70%):

• Design and develop automation, monitoring, CI/CD, and reliability features for the data onboarding pipeline
• Develop and maintain internal infrastructure and services that reduce toil and improve pipeline reliability
• Build observability solutions — dashboards, alerting, log aggregation — using Grafana, the ELK stack, and Vector
• Design and implement CI/CD pipelines, test automation, and release management workflowsWrite infrastructure-as-code for provisioning, scaling, and managing platform components: Kubernetes, bare metal hosts
• Integrate and extend tools such as Redis, Celery, MySQL

Operate (30%): Keep production data pipelines healthy and respond to incidents

• Participate in on-call rotation, respond to production incidents, and drive post-mortems
• Define and track SLOs/SLIs for pipeline reliability, latency, and data freshness
• Diagnose platform performance and reliability issues, driving them to root cause
• Create and maintain runbooks for common operational scenarios
• Plan capacity and optimize resource utilization

What You'll Bring

• 8+ years of experience in SRE, DevOps, or platform engineering roles
• Linux expertise: Power user proficiency in Linux with ability to manage infrastructure, deploy services, and troubleshoot production systems

• AI-agent readiness: Openness to working alongside AI coding agents and LLM-powered tools as part of the development and operations workflow — treating AI as a force multiplier for automation, incident analysis, and toil reduction
• Nice to Have:
  • Cloud platforms: Exposure to GCP or AWS for compute, storage, and managed services
  • Data tools: Familiarity with Apache Arrow, gRPC, or columnar data formats
  • Big data platforms: Familiarity with Hadoop or Apache Spark for large-scale data processing
