We're looking for an engineer who thinks in systems, leads with vision, and sees AI as a force multiplier for everything we build and ship. As part of our Build and Release Management team, you'll own the future of how Cboe tests and delivers software — defining where our engineering practice is headed, architecting a next‑generation CI/CD pipeline, and embedding AI across the Dev Ops lifecycle.

At the heart of this role is Cboe Titanium (Cboe Ti), our high‑performance, globally consistent and locally optimized exchange platform designed to support Cboe's trading operations across options, futures, and equities markets worldwide. You'll be a key driver in shaping how Cboe Ti is built, tested, and released and ensure the platform continues to meet the exacting demands of global markets with speed, precision, and reliability.
