Zocks is an AI platform transforming how financial advisors work. Starting in the US financial services market, we're building technology that supports advisors across their entire workflow - from sales and meeting preparation to note-taking, follow-ups, scheduling, email, document intelligence, reporting, and integrations with the systems they use every day.

Our goal is to take repetitive, manual work out of the advisor-client relationship and turn conversations, documents, and data into actions automatically. As our platform expands across more workflows, customers, and use cases, we're solving increasingly complex challenges around AI, real-time systems, data, security, integrations, and scale.

Zocks is headquartered in San Francisco, while our entire R&D organization - Engineering, Product, Design, Data, and Infrastructure - is based in Budapest. This means our Budapest teams don't just execute on a product built elsewhere: they're directly responsible for shaping the product, technology, and how we build them as we grow.

Key challenges you will work on every day:

• Building and managing an infrastructure with a heavy emphasis on being multi region
• Optimizing network topology for the best possible connectivity, latency and throughput for end users
• Creating and maintaining our delivery pipeline from the developer machines to production
• Participate in a shared on-call rotation (shared equally in a team of 4-6) to support production systems. We focus on sustainable operations, low alert noise, and continuous reliability improvements.

Most of this applies to you:

• Deep understanding of AWS (EC2, Networking, RDS), ideally also some familiarity with Azure and GCP
• Expert understanding of Linux
• Solid scripting skills in one or more of the following languages: Python, Go, Java
• Solid knowledge of private and public networking (VPN, ISPs, Firewalls)
• Proficiency in managing multi cluster container environments, preferably with Kubernetes
• Experience in building monitoring with valuable insights for operations, development and product
• Experience in building software delivery pipelines from PR to Deployment
• Preference for a solid understanding of immutable infrastructures and IaC tooling (Terraform)
• Anything you build can run in any environment from dev machines to public cloud and private data centers

Requirements:

• 5+ years relevant experience (DevOps/Cloud Engineering)
• Strong English and Hungarian communication skills
• Experience working in complex technical organization across global offices/locations in an Agile environment
• Experience working with startups and AI technologies is an advantage
