The team builds automated trading strategies, parallel computing architectures, electronic trading tools, and models supporting market research and analysis.

The role focuses on electronic market making in Fixed Income, Currencies, and Commodities (FICC).

Responsibilities

  • Analyze trading system performance and identify areas for improvement.
  • Generate, implement, test, and deploy enhancements that improve commercial performance.
  • Improve trading system safety and reliability.
  • Work with engineers and traders to improve price making and risk management across FICC markets.
  • Balance short-term business needs with strategic improvements and collaborate with other teams.
  • Build foundational technologies for electronic trading, automated strategies, and supporting research and analysis.

  • Strong software engineering background and demonstrated data analysis with commercially useful conclusions.
  • Experience building systems with strict low-latency and deterministic-performance requirements.
  • Experience tuning or optimizing distributed systems and familiarity with a Linux shell.
  • Ability to explain technical topics to non-specialists and work productively with sales, trading, and technology groups.

Preferred experience
