Job description

As a Senior Technical Program Manager - Infrastructure, you'll help scale and evolve the systems that form the backbone of Optiver's competitive advantage.
Optiver's infrastructure is optimized for speed, reliability, and scale. You'll partner with world-class engineers to deliver large-scale infrastructure programs - spanning data centers, hardware, and global network connectivity - ensuring we continue to operate at the cutting edge of performance.
This role demands both technical depth and execution excellence, as you'll lead programs that enable growth while maintaining the uncompromising standards of quality and reliability that underpin every trade.
What you'll do
In Optiver's fast-paced environment, you will work alongside engineers and leaders to deliver multiple projects that support the firm's strategic growth and take Optiver to the next level.
As a Senior Technical Program Manager, your key responsibilities include:
  • Lead and coordinate delivery of large-scale infrastructure programs spanning data centers, hardware platforms, network connectivity, and foundational services.
  • Partner with engineering and operations leadership to define scope, manage dependencies, and drive execution across teams.
  • Build program frameworks to track progress, manage risk, and improve delivery predictability.
  • Drive continuous improvement in infrastructure planning, capacity management, and process maturity.
  • Ensure alignment between infrastructure, development, and trading stakeholders to support Optiver's global growth.

Who you are
  • Highly self-motivated and thrive in environments with minimal oversight. You take full ownership, show initiative, manage your own priorities effectively and keep momentum even when direction isn't fully defined
  • Hold a degree in computer science, electrical engineering, or a related STEM field.
  • Have 5+ years of experience in engineering (IT infrastructure, hardware, or networks) and/or technical program management in a high-performance environment
  • Strong technical understanding of data centers, compute, storage, and network systems.
  • AI-first mindset with experience leveraging generative or agentic AI to automate workflows, improve program visibility, and enhance productivity
  • Proven success leading large-scale, complex infrastructure or hardware delivery programs.
  • Excellent communicator and structured problem-solver with a bias for action.
  • Motivated by building and scaling the systems that power high-performance trading.

What you'll get:
You'll join a culture of collaboration and excellence, surrounded by curious thinkers and creative problem-solvers. Motivated by a passion for continuous improvement, you'll thrive in a supportive, high-performing environment alongside talented colleagues, collectively tackling some of the toughest challenges in the financial markets.
In addition, you'll receive:
  • The opportunity to work alongside best-in-class professionals from over 40 different countries
  • 401(k) match up to 50% and fully paid health insurance
  • 25 paid vacation days alongside market holidays
  • Extensive office perks, including breakfast, lunch and snacks, regular social events, clubs, sporting leagues and more

Who we are:
At Optiver, our mission is to improve the market by injecting liquidity, providing accurate pricing, increasing transparency and stabilising the market no matter the conditions. With a focus on continuous improvement, we prioritise safeguarding the health and efficiency of the markets for all participants. As one of the largest market making institutions, we are a respected partner on 100+ exchanges across the globe.
Our differences are our edge. Optiver does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, physical or mental disability, or other legally protected characteristics.
Below is the expected base salary for this position. This is a good-faith estimate of the base pay scale for this position and offers will ultimately be determined based on experience, education, skill set, and performance in the interview process. This position will also be eligible for a discretionary bonus (if determined by Optiver) and Optiver's benefits package with the benefits listed above.
Base Salary Range
$140,000-$200,000 USD
