Headquartered in Chicago with offices throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, we trade a variety of asset classes including Fixed Income, ETFs, Equities, FX, Commodities and Energy across all major global markets. We have also leveraged our expertise and technology to expand into three non-traditional strategies: real estate, venture capital and cryptoassets.

We operate with respect, curiosity and open minds. The people who thrive here share our belief that it’s not just what we do that matters–it's how we do it. DRW is a place of high expectations, integrity, innovation and a willingness to challenge consensus.

We are seeking a Cloud Engineer to design, build, and operate DRW's cloud and hybrid infrastructure across a diverse multi-cloud environment, taking ownership and accountability for the reliability, security, and performance of what you deliver. This role helps ensure our cloud infrastructure is secure, highly available, and optimized to support our continued success and growth.

You will partner closely with engineering, security, networking, operations, and business teams to enable appropriate use of public cloud, private infrastructure, and hybrid architectures.

What You'll Do:

• Platform Management: Manage and evolve cloud platforms, including but not limited to AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Alibaba Cloud (AliCloud), and Snowflake, along with the associated hybrid and on-premises dependencies required to operate them reliably.

• Cloud Foundations: Design and maintain cloud foundations, including account/subscription/project organization, identity integration (federation, workload identity), policy guardrails, logging, tagging, and shared services.

• Operational Excellence: Serve as the escalation point for complex production and cloud/hybrid-infrastructure issues, owning root cause analysis and holding yourself accountable for durable fixes, engaging cloud provider and partner support teams as needed.

• Automation & Standards: Build and maintain automation, standards, reference architectures, and documentation that strengthen deployment consistency and enable teams to consume cloud services safely and consistently.

• Integration & Collaboration: Engineer and support resilient cloud connectivity, including transit architectures and connectivity between cloud providers and on-premises environments.
