About the role
The D.E.Shaw group is seeking a senior systems engineer with extensive Linux experience to join its Platform Engineering team in New York. This hands-on role involves maintaining infrastructure, security policy, and core services across datacenters, cloud, and offices worldwide. You will collaborate with a global engineering team to design, implement, and improve scalable Linux-based systems, optimize deployment pipelines, and contribute to cross-functional initiatives across the firm.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
