RESPONSIBILITIES
- You will be a principal point of call for the deployment of new infrastructure in Asia (servers, switches, cross connects and so forth).
- You will supervise and execute large projects (e.g., moving large amounts of equipment between sites) and maintain our datacentres (e.g., replacing failed components).
- You will be responsible for installing and maintaining a well-ordered datacentre infrastructure (e.g., designing, installing, and maintaining labelled, structured cabling, or power, space and cooling capacity monitoring and expansion).
- You will play a key role on inventory management and logistics, including the challenges of international shipping and supply chains.
- You will perform server integration work (e.g., fitting additional components into servers).
- You will coordinate with third parties regarding server support.
- An ideal candidate would also be interested in participating in platform design. This would involve selecting, specifying, or customising servers for XTX considering requirements such as power, cooling, and the pros and cons of different CPU SKUs.
ESSENTIAL ATTRIBUTES
- You will have extensive experience working in datacentres with a good understanding of high-speed networking (for example different kinds of fibre and transceivers).
- You will be comfortable working inside servers (for example installing PCIe cards).
- You will ideally understand optical networks.
- You will be familiar with the mechanics and intricacies of international shipping.
- Due to the nature of our trading, some work would necessarily have to happen during weekends, as such flexibility to work on Saturdays (with time-off in lieu) or a willingness to work a shifted week (for example Tuesday through Saturday) would be necessary.
