The technology operates at serious scale, with response times in the 10-100 microsecond range.

We're looking for experience in:

Low-latency algorithmic trading systems
Market data and back-testing/simulation tools
Linux internals, system calls and kernel tuning
TCP/IP and kernel-bypass technologies
Event-driven or event-sourcing microservices
Performance analysis and targeted optimisation

Experience with KDB, Rust or C++ would be highly advantageous.
