Summary

Databento is hiring a Systems Engineer to join their Software Development team. Databento is the next generation market data provider — with the radical idea that you should only pay for the data that you use. Key skills: Python, AWS, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes.

About the role

The financial industry is growing at a record pace, but our data providers are still stuck in the past — with cumbersome onboarding processes, complicated APIs, slow infrastructure, and expensive licensing costs.

Databento is the next generation market data provider — with the radical idea that you should only pay for the data that you use. We power the world's largest finance and fintech institutions and lower the barrier of entry for small startups, gaining over 4,000 users during our first year of launch. Our team brings former experience at the world's leading quantitative firms, including Two Sigma, Flow Traders, Tower Research, PDT Partners, SIG, and more.

We offer health, dental, disability, and life insurance benefits, as well as 401(k) matching for full-time employees. We accommodate 100% remote work, with teammates living around the globe and paid in their local currency.

Responsibilities

  • Systems and network configuration.
  • Bare-metal and containerized application deployment.
  • Maintaining large storage clusters.
  • Instrumenting performance measurement and alerts.
  • Improving systems automation and tooling.
  • On-call support.
  • Coordinating bulk data delivery to customers and vendor partners.
  • Occasional physical infrastructure deliveries and systems provisioning.

Required qualifications

  • Strong Linux knowledge.
  • Experience with systems configuration and provisioning (PXE, Puppet, and Ansible preferred; Terraform).
  • Understanding of storage concepts (RAID, LVM, popular filesystems, distributed storage).
  • Basic networking (OSI model, IP protocols, switching/routing).
  • Ability to code in Python and write shell scripts.
  • DevOps/GitOps mindset.
  • Prior internship experience or 2+ years in full-time systems engineering or infrastructure roles.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field.
  • Candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S.; H-1B visa sponsorship is not available.

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience with distributed storage systems (e.g., Ceph).
  • Customer support experience and strong problem-solving abilities.
  • Prior experience at a trading or fintech firm, or a strong interest in learning fintech.
  • Database administration (MySQL, ClickHouse, Redis).
  • Cloud engineering basics (AWS, GCP — compute, storage).
  • Virtualization and compute workloads (Proxmox, Docker, Kubernetes, HTCondor).
  • Systems and network tuning.
  • Monitoring and alerting (Prometheus, Grafana, Alertmanager, Loki).
  • Ability to travel to data centers in New Jersey or Boston on short notice (within one week).

Notice about phishing scams

Be cautious of phishing scams impersonating Databento that offer fake job interviews and request purchases. Official emails come only from @databento.com or us.greenhouse-mail.io (our ATS). Any other domains (e.g., databento-careers.com, databento.online) are fraudulent.
