London / Global
I'm working with a global electronic market maker hiring a low-latency Java developer in London, joining the team that builds and owns their client-facing trading infrastructure.
What the role covers:
Designing and maintaining proprietary low-latency trading systems, front-to-back
Order management, exchange connectivity, smart order routing, internalisation and clearing
Building tools on top of a high-performance platform used by hundreds of clients
Scalability and performance work across the stack
A mix of projects - Front End-facing through to Back End infrastructure, in different languages
What they're looking for:
Strong experience in Java, Go or C++ building distributed, scalable systems
Roughly 2 - 7 years shipping and maintaining highly optimised code
Python, high-concurrency systems, low-latency or high-transaction environments, relational databases - all useful, none essential
CS, Computer Engineering or equivalent background
Communication skills that hold up in technical debate
Worth knowing: flat hierarchy, meritocratic, fast-paced. No finance knowledge expected - they teach it. 26 days annual leave, private health/dental/optical, income protection, pension, gym subsidy, catered lunch daily.
This suits an engineer who wants ownership early, likes performance-critical problems, and would rather learn the market from the inside than sit in a large corporate engineering function.
If that sounds like your kind of environment, feel free to apply with your latest CV.
