Frankfurt am Main, Hessen, Deutschland Optiver Vollzeit

At Optiver, we strive for excellence in everything we do. We're looking for a Data Center Engineer who shares our excellence-only mindset. Our thoughtfully planned and well-orchestrated data center infrastructure is just as important as the algorithms running on our trading software. Without best-in-class infrastructure, there would be no foundation upon which to build our global market making core business. We're looking for a Data Center Engineer who is committed to continuous improvement and thrives bringing new ideas to the table. This is a chance to take ownership of the physical parts of our trading infrastructure across multiple data centers and thousands of servers, all the while striving for simplicity and operational excellence.

WHO WE ARE:

Optiver is a tech-driven trading firm and leading global market maker. As one of the oldest market making institutions, we are a trusted partner of 50+ exchanges across the globe. Our mission is to constantly improve the market by injecting liquidity, providing accurate pricing, increasing transparency and acting as a stabilising force no matter the market conditions. With a focus on continuous improvement, we participate in the safeguarding of healthy and efficient markets for everyone who participates.

Our Amsterdam office is where it all began. Over 35 years ago, Optiver's business started with a single trader on the floor of Amsterdam's European Stock Exchange. Since our 1986 founding, Optiver's Amsterdam office has grown into one of the most dynamic and exciting trading floors in Europe. Our culture reflects the Dutch capital city's progressive, innovative and inclusive nature. With its unique spirit, Amsterdam is the ideal hub for our teams to trade a wide range of products from listed derivatives to cash equities, ETFs, bonds and foreign exchange.

  • Facilitating the installation of servers and network equipment with smart hands across remote co-locations
  • Managing power and space including monitoring and capacity planning
  • Planning moves and new build-outs
  • Contributing to the build and maintenance of our office infrastructure environment, such as our trading floor
  • Managing our equipment inventory
  • Replacing hard drives/memory/transceivers and other hardware related tasks as required by our server and network teams

WHAT YOU'LL NEED:

  • Creative problem solving skills: you will be expected to come up with solutions to problems at hand, opposed to waiting for orders
  • Experience working in a modern, large-scale data center
  • Strong documentation and logistics mentality
  • Attention to detail, cleanliness and an appreciation for simplicity
  • Ability to identify basic parts of network equipment – SFPs, line cards, chassis
  • Ability to identify basic parts of servers – memory, network card, hard drives
  • Knowledge of structured cabling systems using cat 5, cat 6, multi-mode and single-mode fiber
  • Familiarity with both power and communications cabling standards
  • Experience configuring and using cable testers for both fiber and copper to troubleshoot cabling issues
  • An understanding of change control processes

WHAT YOU'LL GET:

  • The chance to start your career working alongside best-in-class professionals from over 40 different countries.

Alongside this, you will get great secondary benefits such as 25 paid vacation days, fully paid first-class commuting expenses, training opportunities, discounts on health insurance, breakfast and lunch facilities, sports and leisure activities, Friday afternoon drinks and even weekly in-house chair massages.
