Job Description:
My client is a global, technologist-driven quant firm where cutting-edge research and ultra-low-latency engineering unite to move real capital in real time. Every line of code committed reaches live markets quickly and measurably influences PnL.
What Is the Opportunity?
  • You will sit on the trading desk, collaborating daily with quantitative researchers and portfolio managers. Your work ships to production in real time.
  • Building ultra-low-latency stack (single-digit microseconds), custom network hardware, and unrestricted high-performance compute: whatever is required to push performance.
  • From concept and design through implementation, deployment and continuous optimisation, you will own the full life-cycle of your solutions.
  • Tackle challenges across execution engines, terabyte-scale research platforms and advanced analytics.
  • Extremely strong compensation, performance-driven bonuses, and relocation/visa support where needed.


Your Core Strengths:
  • Expert command of modern C++ (C++20/23) and a rigorous understanding of systems internals - CPU architecture, memory hierarchy, operating systems and networking.
  • Demonstrated ability to design, implement and maintain production-grade, performance-critical systems with minimal oversight.
  • Clear, concise communication and a collaborative mindset in a fast-moving environment.


Helpful Extras:
  • Python for data analysis and tooling.
  • Experience within quantitative trading, market-making or other latency-sensitive domains.


If your profile is a good fit, I will reach out to you within 12 hours from application.
