Job Description:
Linux Systems Engineer
Location: Paris
Our client is a world-class hedge fund, recognised for its elite technology organisation and scientific, data-driven culture. They are now seeking a Linux Systems Engineer to join a global team operating at the core of a large-scale, mission-critical Linux environment powering cutting-edge quantitative research and high-performance trading.
This is an opportunity to immerse yourself in one of the industry’s most advanced Linux estates-hands-on across high-availability platforms, large compute clusters, and automation tooling-while partnering with exceptional engineers to elevate observability, resilience, and platform automation. As a key member of the global infrastructure support organisation, you will help support, scale, and evolve the firm’s next-generation Linux trading and research platforms.
Key Responsibilities
*Administer, support, and optimise Linux-based trading and research platforms within a high-availability, ultra-low-latency production environment.
*Deploy new infrastructure and manage end-to-end server lifecycle processes, from bare-metal installation through to full OS provisioning.
*Collaborate with engineering teams to enhance automation, monitoring, and observability, driving efficiency, reliability, and long-term scalability.
*Troubleshoot complex production incidents, conduct deep-dive root-cause analysis, and implement enduring stability improvements.
*Produce and maintain high-quality documentation while contributing to process refinement and knowledge sharing across the global infrastructure group.
*Participate in an on-call rotation and provide occasional out-of-hours (primarily remote) support.
Key Requirements
*4+ years’ experience in infrastructure, systems engineering, or Linux platform support within high-availability, mission-critical environments.
*Strong hands-on Linux administration experience with Red Hat, CentOS, or Rocky Linux.
*Proven experience delivering full server lifecycle builds, including hardware installation, OS deployment, and configuration.
*Solid understanding of AMD and Intel server hardware, with the ability to troubleshoot at both system and component level.
*Practical experience with infrastructure automation tools (e.g., Ansible).
*Scripting proficiency in Python and Bash for automation, tooling, and operational workflows.
