They provide liquidity to the financial markets, driving efficiencies for buyers and sellers. Employees are the greatest asset so they give them lots of responsibility and the support they need to make a difference. The flat structure fosters a culture of openness and collaboration, encouraging the sharing of ideas and knowledge. It makes no difference if you have been with them for three days or three years, the best idea wins. While they work hard, they also have a lot of fun; whether solving complex challenges or in team building, leisure and sporting activities. They also enable their employees to contribute towards a better society through their foundation. Technology is not a department; it’s at the heart of everything they do. Developed in-house, the innovative software makes millions of trading decisions daily, and they win by making better and faster decisions than the competition. The Strategy Development team works closely with the trading teams as well as other engineering teams on a variety of applications, tools, and automation projects. You will be a strong engineer with an interest in quantitative trading. While you may not be experienced in Python, you will have an interest and drive to learn. You will be placed in an environment consisting primarily of a large Python analysis ecosystem drawing data from various sources, such as external market data vendors as well as their own trading and pricing systems. You’ll build analysis & visualization tools at the heart of the business logic, in close collaboration with the traders who use them. Your work involves both interpreting ideas as well as coming up with your own, and efficiently implementing these into tools that are reliable, scalable, and performant. Together with traders, researchers, quants, and engineers, you deliver challenging projects while taking ownership for end-to-end product development – from requirements gathering to production. You’ll write reliable and scalable software while balancing time to production with quality and testability. Advanced automated testing and daily deployments will allow you to deliver incremental value with agility. Within a complex landscape of varying systems and technologies, you’ll be constantly challenged to consider trade-offs between throughput, simplicity, scalability, and maintainability. THE TECHNOLOGY STACK The tech stack includes an ever-evolving range of systems and technologies, and our engineers have the freedom to choose the best solution for the problem at hand. If a new technology has the potential to add value, they’ll actively invest in exploring, adopting, and developing it. Quantitative Developers within the Strategy Development team primarily develop applications in Python with occasional development in Java and Typescript. They use a variety of open-source frameworks for numerical analysis and distributing large workloads (Pandas, Numpy, XGBoost, Dask, and Kubernetes for example). These systems connect to various data access and persistence technologies such as S3, MongoDB, Redis, InfluxDB, Hadoop, and Kafka. WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT No two projects or any two days are the same. You can expect a dynamic, fast-paced environment that delivers a steady stream of challenges. One of the most exciting aspects of the job is their quick feedback loop. They hire from the top 10% of the global tech community and reward accordingly. Beyond this, they provide their software engineers with an extensive range of training and personal development opportunities, as well as the chance to work with the latest technologies. While a resume is preferable, they also welcome tentative inquiries from well-qualified persons. Utmost confidentiality and discretion are assured.
