- Familiarity with basic networking concepts and circuit troubleshooting
- Experience with shell scripting (Bash) or Python for basic task automation is a plus
- Ability to follow complex technical instructions with extreme attention to detail
- Comfort working outside of standard business hours (evenings/weekends) to support a global, 24-hour trading cycle
