C++ Dev (SWE/QD)

Role Overview:

We are partnering with one of the world's leading trading firms, recognized for its tech-first culture, to find multiple C Developers to join their core engineering team. The firm is undergoing a significant build-out across several key areas, including machine learning model infrastructure, ultra-low-latency high-performance computing engines, and distributed systems capable of handling massive data volumes. This is a unique opportunity to work on cutting-edge systems that power algorithmic trading.

As a tech-first company, the firm is engineering-driven, prioritizing technology innovation above all. Engineers play a central role in shaping the firm's success, collaborating with researchers and traders to build the next generation of trading infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and optimize ultra-low-latency, multi-threaded applications for algorithmic trading systems.
• Build high-performance computing engines designed to execute complex trading strategies with minimal delay.
• Design and implement distributed systems capable of handling large-scale, real-time data processing for trading.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to build machine learning model infrastructure for predictive analytics and trading strategies.
• Contribute to the full software development lifecycle, from concept to deployment and ongoing optimization.
• Innovate on system design to ensure scalability, reliability, and speed, while minimizing latency.
• Research and integrate new techniques to improve performance, including data storage, retrieval, and analysis systems.
• Focus on continuous improvement of system efficiency, optimizing both software and hardware interactions.

Skills and Experience:

• Strong expertise in C , particularly in Linux and low-latency environments.
• Experience with multi-threaded programming and building distributed systems.
• Deep understanding of performance optimization and system-level programming.
• Proven track record in developing high-performance computing engines for large-scale systems.
• Background in machine learning, data processing, or similar fields is a plus.
• Familiarity with Python for research and infrastructure development.
• Degree from a top 15 engineering school such as MIT, Stanford, UC Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon, or similar.
• Preference for candidates with experience from top tech firms (Google, Meta, Snapchat) or leading trading firms/hedge funds.

This is a unique opportunity for C developers who want to build and optimize next-generation systems in a tech-first environment. If you're excited about low-latency systems, high-performance computing, and working in a collaborative, innovation-driven atmosphere, we encourage you to apply!
