• Monitor live trading systems and market connectivity across multiple venues
• Investigate real-time trading incidents, anomalies, and performance issues under time pressure
• Triage production problems and work with developers and quants to identify root causes
• Perform post-incident analysis and contribute to preventative improvements
• Build and maintain internal tools, dashboards, and scripts to improve monitoring and operational efficiency
• Assist with exchange-related issues such as order rejections, latency spikes, and data inconsistencies
