Job Description

World-leading prop fund is looking for C++ developers to join their rapidly expanding team in London and Amsterdam. This data and technology-driven firm specialise in developing automated trading systems that execute across global financial markets.

The successful candidate will be joining a small, highly productive and fast-paced team - working on critical software in a real-time environment. You will be responsible for working across the entire trading infrastructure - developing ultra-low-latency exchange protocol encoders; fine-tuning fully automated trading strategies; collaborating with researchers, systems and ops teams will all be part of your daily routine.

Benefits:
  • Market-leading compensation packages
  • Generous relocation support if needed
  • Fast-paced environment with new and exciting challenges
  • Short feedback loops from idea to production in as little as ~1 day
  • Smaller teams with more opportunities for high impact in roles

Requirements:
  • BSc in Computer Science or related field
  • Minimum 3 yrs' professional experience writing production quality code, preferably in C++
  • Solid experience working on multithreaded applications, networks and operating systems
  • Strong understanding of algorithms and data structures

Desirable:
  • Experience with Python development is a strong plus
  • Comfortable operating at various levels of abstraction, from individual machines to large scale distributed systems
  • Finance experience is not necessary


Whilst we carefully review all applications, to all jobs, due to the high volume of applications we receive it is not possible to respond to those who have not been successful.
