The role The Network and Security Engineer builds and looks after the network the platform runs on, and keeps it secure at the same time.

What you will do • Help design and then build the network: segmentation and zoning, routing and switching, firewalls, load balancing, DNS, and time synchronisation, engineered for steady low-latency performance • Set up and secure connectivity to external counterparties such as custodians, settlement banks, and market systems • Own perimeter and internal network security in the first line: firewalls, segmentation, secure and privileged remote access, and certificate and encryption management • Keep network devices patched and hardened, support penetration testing, and close network findings • Lead the first response to network and security incidents, and escalate cleanly when needed • Keep the network documented to a standard that holds up under review
