  • Manage Data Analysis and Reporting : Analyze large datasets to enhance and validate trading strategies.
  • Tune Performance for Low-Latency Operations : Ensure the highest levels of system performance, particularly in the context of high-frequency trading.
  • Develop Risk Management and Compliance Tools : Create tools for risk assessment, management, and compliance monitoring to ensure adherence to relevant regulations and internal risk guidelines.

  • Network Programming Proficiency : Required for working with our distributed system infrastructure.
  • Preferred Skills

  • Professional Experience : Practical, hands-on experience in software development is valued. A formal degree is not a strict requirement, but some level of professional experience is necessary.
  • Additional Programming Languages : Knowledge of additional programming languages and frameworks, reflecting a versatile skill set.
  • Expertise in High-Performance Computing : Advanced understanding of optimizing systems for high performance and low latency.
  • Understanding of Financial Markets : A basic knowledge or interest in financial markets and trading systems.
