Company Overview:

We're Zocks, a venture capital-backed AI startup changing the world of financial services, and other industries that value security and privacy. Our founding team built their careers working on real-time communication products, building enterprise platforms, and crafting tools for some of the most security-conscious industries. With experience gained from industry leaders like Twilio, IBM, Microsoft, and Hearsay Systems, we're using AI to bridge human conversations with enterprise systems, starting with financial services.

Our focus, although simple, is powerful: reinventing business operations and transforming the areas that often get bogged down by slow, inefficient processes. Our innovative platform allows people to communicate naturally, while we capture the information they need, so they can avoid data entry, streamline their operations, and spend more time on what matters most: their clients.

Location: Budapest, XI. (On-site Monday to Thursday, Remote on Fridays)

As Zocks continues to scale, we're looking for a highly experienced Senior IT Infrastructure Engineer to take ownership of our internal IT infrastructure, security posture, and end-user computing environment.

This is not a traditional IT support role. We're looking for someone who enjoys designing, building, and continuously improving modern IT systems while remaining deeply hands-on. You'll define standards, automate wherever possible, and ensure our infrastructure is secure, scalable, and reliable as we grow.

While you'll spend much of your time improving our infrastructure and processes, you'll also serve as the senior technical owner for complex IT issues. We believe great infrastructure engineers don't just build reliable systems—they stay close enough to day-to-day operations to continuously improve them.
