Systems Engineer II

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes description about firm, then responsibilities, qualifications, preferred qualifications, salary, benefits. We need to use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include a section only when posting has real specific content. So we need to map content. We have: - About the role: The initial paragraph describing Tower, mission, etc. Could be considered "About the role". We'll include that as prose

. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Requirements/Qualifications: The posting has "Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications (not Required)". We can combine into Qualifications section (required) and maybe Skills? But we have separate headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide which to use. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we need to decide which headings map to content. We have responsibilities list. We have qualifications (required). We have preferred qualifications (not required) - could be considered "Skills" or "Preferred Qualifications". The heading "Skills" could capture skills like Python, Bash, etc. But we also have "Requirements" maybe for mandatory qualifications. However we have both required and preferred. Could put required under "Qualifications" and preferred under "Skills". Or we could combine all under "Qualifications". The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we just have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. That's four sections. But we need to use allowed headings; we can omit others. That's fine. Thus sections:

About the role

... (firm description)

Responsibilities

• ... each responsibility

Qualifications

• ... required qualifications

Maybe also include Preferred qualifications as part of Qualifications? Could add another

Preferred Qualifications

but not in allowed list. Allowed list includes Skills. Could treat preferred qualifications as Skills. So we could have

Skills

for preferred qualifications. Pay: we have salary range. So

Pay

$130,000-$165,000 base plus discretionary bonus.

Benefits: we have benefits list. So

Benefits

...

Schedule: not mentioned, so omit. Thus we have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Pay, Benefits. Check that we don't repeat job title as heading. Not needed. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Need to include all details from responsibilities, qualifications, preferred qualifications, salary, benefits. Let's extract responsibilities list: From text: "Responsibilities Supporting, maintaining, and enhancing the firm's trading Linux infrastructureSupporting, maintaining, and enhancing the firm's HPC infrastructure for researchProviding support specifically for the Linux and HPC environments including:Emergency responseExecution of planned changes, updates, and deployment projects within the Linux server infrastructureManage HPC systems to support trading operations and Condor Job schedulerAdvanced profiling and troubleshooting of performance issues specifically within the Linux servers environmentContributing to the development and refinement of tools and systems to automate provisioning, configuration, and monitoring of thousands of Linux serversManagement of essential core services such as DHCP, LDAP, DNS, and NFS for on-prem and hosted data centers as well as public cloudsParticipating in an on-call rotation and occasional weekend shiftsEngaging in daily direct communication with trading teams and core engineeringStay up-to-date with the latest technologies and best practices in HPC, storage, and GPU computing." We need to split into sensible list items. The original seems to have missing punctuation. We'll create items: - Supporting, maintaining, and enhancing the firm's trading Linux infrastructure - Supporting, maintaining, and enhancing the firm's HPC infrastructure for research - Providing support specifically for the Linux and HPC environments including: - Emergency response - Execution of planned changes, updates, and deployment projects within the Linux server infrastructure - Manage HPC systems to support trading operations and Condor Job scheduler - Advanced profiling and troubleshooting of performance issues specifically within the Linux servers environment - Contributing to the development and refinement of tools and systems to automate provisioning, configuration, and monitoring of thousands of Linux servers - Management of essential core services such as DHCP, LDAP, DNS, and NFS for on-prem and hosted data centers as well as public clouds - Participating in an on-call rotation and occasional weekend shifts - Engaging in daily direct communication with trading teams and core engineering - Stay up-to-date with the latest technologies and best practices in HPC, storage, and GPU computing. We could flatten but keep as list items; nested lists okay? Probably fine to have

• ...
  • ... etc. But simpler: each bullet as separate item, maybe combine subpoints into separate items. We'll produce a flat list with each distinct responsibility. Now Qualifications (required): From text: "Qualifications Experience in maintenance, operation, and administration of a sufficiently advanced Linux environmentDaily use of and contribution to developing automation and monitoring toolsComprehensive understanding of Linux OS concepts and internalsWorking knowledge of Intel-based hardware and server componentsGood knowledge of Python, expert knowledge of Bash for scripting and automation tasks in a Linux environmentUnderstanding of Linux server-side networking and typical network protocolsParticipation in open source or personal projects is a plusUnderstanding of Linux configuration management, source control, CI/CD, and automated deploymentStrong communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a team." We need to split into items: - Experience in maintenance, operation, and administration of a sufficiently advanced Linux environment - Daily use of and contribution to developing automation and monitoring tools - Comprehensive understanding of Linux OS concepts and internals - Working knowledge of Intel-based hardware and server components - Good knowledge of Python, expert knowledge of Bash for scripting and automation tasks in a Linux environment - Understanding of Linux server-side networking and typical network protocols - Participation in open source or personal projects is a plus - Understanding of Linux configuration management, source control, CI/CD, and automated deployment - Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a team Now Skills (preferred qualifications): From text: "Preferred Qualifications (not Required) Experience with containerization and orchestration tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).Familiarity with cloud computing platforms and hybrid cloud environments.Knowledge of parallel file systems (e.g., GPFS), batch systems (e.g., Slurm, Grid Engine, Condor), and high-performance network interconnects.Experience with VAST and Weka storage solutions is highly desirable.Solid understanding of trading infrastructure and low-latency systems.Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.Skills in managing hybrid cloud/on-premises environments.Experience proposing and implementing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices from the ground up." We'll split: - Experience with containerization and orchestration tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) - Familiarity with cloud computing platforms and hybrid cloud environments - Knowledge of parallel file systems (e.g., GPFS), batch systems (e.g., Slurm, Grid Engine, Condor), and high-performance network interconnects - Experience with VAST and Weka storage solutions is highly desirable - Solid understanding of trading infrastructure and low-latency systems - Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment - Skills in managing hybrid cloud/on-premises environments - Experience proposing and implementing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices from the ground up Now Pay: "Anticipated New York annual base salary range $130,000-$165,000 plus eligible for discretionary bonus." We'll output as

    $130,000-$165,000 base salary plus discretionary bonus.

    Now Benefits: From text: "Benefits Tower’s headquarters are in the historic Equitable Building, right in the heart of NYC’s Financial District and our impact is global, with over a dozen offices around the world. At Tower, we believe work should be both challenging and enjoyable. That is why we foster a culture where smart, driven people thrive – without the egos. Our open concept workplace, casual dress code, and well-stocked kitchens reflect the value we place on a friendly, collaborative environment where everyone is respected, and great ideas win. Our benefits include: Generous paid time off policiesSavings plans and other financial wellness tools available in each regionHybrid working opportunitiesFree breakfast, lunch, and snacks daily In-office wellness experiences and reimbursement for select wellness expenses (e.g., gym, personal training and more) Company-sponsored sports teams and fitness events (JPM Corporate Challenge, Cycle for Survival, Wall Street Rides FAR and more)Volunteer opportunities and charitable giving Social events, happy hours, treats, and celebrations throughout the yearWorkshops and continuous learning opportunities At Tower, you’ll find a collaborative and welcoming culture, a diverse team and a workplace that values both performance and enjoyment. No unnecessary hierarchy. No ego. Just great people doing great work – together." We need to extract benefits list items: - Generous paid time off policies - Savings plans and other financial wellness tools available in each region - Hybrid working opportunities - Free breakfast, lunch, and snacks daily - In-office wellness experiences and reimbursement for select wellness expenses (e.g., gym, personal training and more) - Company-sponsored sports teams and fitness events (JPM Corporate Challenge, Cycle for Survival, Wall Street Rides FAR and more) - Volunteer opportunities and charitable giving - Social events, happy hours, treats, and celebrations throughout the year - Workshops and continuous learning opportunities Also there is description about HQ etc. That's not a benefit but could be part of About the role? Actually About the role already includes firm description. We could keep that description in About the role. The benefits section should just list benefits. We'll keep the HQ description maybe in About the role as part of firm overview. But we already have About the role paragraph; we could incorporate the HQ description there. However we must not invent or summarize away detail. We need to preserve all substantive information. The HQ description is substantive; we should include it somewhere. It could be part of About the role (makes sense). So we will merge the firm description paragraph (first paragraph) with the HQ description and other cultural description. Let's capture the initial paragraph: "Tower Research Capital is a leading quantitative trading firm founded in 1998. Tower has built its business on a high-performance platform and independent trading teams. We have a 25+ year track record of innovation and a reputation for discovering unique market opportunities. Tower is home to some of the world’s best systematic trading and engineering talent.
