Infrastructure Engineer Manager Jobs in Colonia, NJ

Kalshi has defined a new category: prediction markets. Kalshi allows people to trade on the outcome of any events and turn any question about the future into a financial asset. Kalshi fought for years and legalized prediction markets in the US for the first time in history. Kalshi is currently the fastest growing financial market in America, and has thousands of markets across politics, economics, financials, weather, tech, AI, culture and more.

We believe prediction markets have the potential to be the largest financial market because they turn anything into a financial position. 

• Our vision: well... build the largest financial market on the planet. 
• Our mission: bring more truth to the world through the power of markets. 

Building a new category is hard... like really hard. But it's beautiful and deeply fulfilling. Our culture is simple: we hire really talented people, work really hard, and enjoy the climb. We are looking for ambitious and exceptional people to join our (relatively small) team to help us build the next generation of financial markets.

We are building a next-generation financial ecosystem (think NYSE or CME from scratch). As part of Kalshi, you will work on various platforms, including core exchange, clearinghouse, API infrastructure, connectivity to brokers and market makers, and others. We are a small team, which means your responsibilities scale very rapidly, and your contributions are clear and visible, not marginal. There is still a lot of green field at Kalshi and a low of it (including entire systems) can be yours. As an infra engineer, you will help build and scale all things on the infrastructure layer and DevOps at Kalshi. 

Some of your responsibilities include; 

• Provide the infrastructure to automate and standardize how software is built, versioned and deployed to target environments
• Provide infrastructure and tooling to automate test development and execution up and down the testing pyramid, including unit, API, and integration testing
• Design large-scale systems, making the right tradeoffs for risk and long-term maintainability.
• Help develop and maintain the infrastructure for high-performance data feeds and trading APIs for clients.
• High guarantee and availability clearing systems, including margining, collateral management, and banking integrations
• Stress test large-scale critical systems to ensure their robustness and maintainability
• Ship fast and with high quality
• Make decisions: we give a lot of flexibility, which also means no spoon-feeding.

The company is launched and growing, which means your role will evolve and grow with the company. Joining Kalshi means you'll be exposed to all parts of the business and define our culture. 

• 3+ years of software engineering experience.
• Strong aspiration to learn and communication skills.
• Strong technical grasp and ability to tackle complex engineering problems that deliver results. 
• Strong familiarity with AWS, k8s, terraform, RDS, Kafka, load balancing, etc.
• History of creating and applying new processes and tooling to increase engineering efficiency.
• Lead with experience planning and driving large projects with long-term impact on a single system or team.
• Excellent judgment on task prioritizations
• Growth mindset, with a high slope and eagerness to lean
• Love of the craft: you genuinely care and put your all into your work
• Can ship at incredible speed (very simple)
• Have strong experience or knowledge in either of the following areas:
• Networking: demonstrated experience in debugging networking issues.
• Security: have certificates like CISSP, CISM

• Proven experience building deployment systems in k8s.
• Proven experience building dev/test environments in k8s.
• Proven experience building dynamic configuration systems.
