Tower Pros is the dedicated field operations support team for some of the most successful HFTs in the world. It is our responsibility to build and maintain first-in-class wireless networks that compete in the fast-paced, ever-evolving landscape of financial markets. This is a team for individuals that are truly interested in having their skillsets consistently challenged and actively want to learn new skills as the needs of the business grow. We are focused on a team environment, and the most successful applicants will work as part of a team to constantly deliver and improve on the work produced.

This role sits at the intersection of software, RF engineering, and network operations. Underneath all of it is one standard: our paths should be the fastest in the market and stay that way. moving target, so this job is as much about finding the next microsecond as defending the ones we already have.

What You'll Do:

• Build and run the monitoring and mapping platforms that give the team a live view of the network, including the telemetry pipelines that collect and baseline link performance (RSSI, SNR, BER), the alerting that fires off them, and the interfaces engineers actually work in.

• Write device control and protocol integrations for amplifiers, radios, controllers, and power systems over serial/TCP, SNMP, and vendor APIs.

• Develop AI and LLM-assisted diagnostic and chat-ops tooling that shortens incident triage and on-call response.

• Manage radio and link configuration as code in git, so that changes to the network are reviewed, versioned, and repeatable.

• Build the measurement and analysis tooling that benchmarks our paths against what the market is achieving, identifies where we lead and where we have slipped, and turns the gap into a recommendation worth building.

• Work public regulatory, spectrum, and structure datasets (FCC ULS, ASR, prior coordination filings, and international equivalents) as research inputs, and translate what they show into route and site strategy.
