Debian Systems Engineer at Hudson River Trading (NY, CHI, ATX, LDN)



Hi everyone!

My colleague Paul Back and I really enjoyed meeting and eating durian with you all at DebConf in Hsinchu!

Following up on the conversations started there, our company, Hudson River Trading, runs on Debian, is proud to sponsor DebConf, and has some Debian focused job postings open. We're looking for people to help us strengthen our Debian environment and to tackle the challenges of running and upgrading a high performance platform at scale. See information below for the full job description.

We're also hiring for several other positions (SREs, Systems Engineers, Network Engineers, etc.), so take a look at our careers page (link at bottom) if you're looking for an opportunity to work with Debian in your professional career.

Thanks, and looking forward to Brazil for DebConf19!
