C/C++ Developer

Software Engineer, Low-Latency Systems

• Employment Type: Full-time
• Experience Level: senior-level (7–10 years)

About the Role

We are hiring a Software Engineer, Low-Latency Systems to design and optimize the core infrastructure powering our algorithmic trading systems. In this role, you will work on latency-critical execution paths where nanoseconds, cache lines, memory layout, and network behavior matter.

This is a hands-on engineering position for someone who enjoys building high-performance systems and reasoning deeply about correctness, throughput, and tail latency. Prior trading domain experience is helpful but not required—we value engineering depth and systems thinking above all else.

What You’ll Do (Responsibilities)

• Build Core Infrastructure: Design, develop, and maintain low-latency components including order routing, market data handling, and execution pipelines.
• Optimize Performance: Profile and optimize critical code paths to minimize throughput and tail latency.
• Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with quant and trading teams to translate complex strategy requirements into highly efficient infrastructure primitives.
• Drive System Design: Contribute to architectural decisions around threading models, memory layout, and network stack configurations.
• Ensure Reliability: Improve observability and operational performance across trading infrastructure. Participate in on-call rotations, incident response, and post-mortems to keep systems running smoothly.

What We’re Looking For (Requirements)

• Experience: 7 to 10 years of professional experience in systems engineering, with a demonstrable focus on low-latency systems or high-performance computing (HPC).
• Language Proficiency: Strong, production-level proficiency in Rust and/or C++.
• Systems Depth: Comfort reasoning about memory management, lock-free data structures, compiler behavior, and CPU-level performance.
• Tooling: Experience using Linux performance tooling such as perf, flamegraphs, strace, or similar tools.
• Networking Fundamentals: Solid understanding of network stack behavior, including TCP, UDP, multicast, and kernel bypass.
• Problem Solving: Ability to debug complex production issues and optimize systems under real-world constraints.

Nice to Have (Bonus Points)

• Prior exposure to trading systems, market data feeds, or exchange connectivity.
• Familiarity with financial market protocols (e.g., FIX, ITCH, OUCH).
• Experience with low-latency networking technologies like DPDK, RDMA, or kernel bypass.
• Familiarity with co-location environments and latency-sensitive infrastructure.

Culture & Fit

We are looking for an engineer who takes ownership, thrives in ambiguous and fast-moving environments, and holds an incredibly high bar for correctness and performance. If you love drilling down into the lowest levels of software to squeeze out maximum efficiency, we want to hear from you.

As a C++ developer working in front office electronic trading, your role involves developing and maintaining software solutions for trading systems used in financial markets. Here are some key aspects of your responsibilities:

C++ Programming: Mastery of the C++ programming language is essential, as most trading systems are built using C++ due to its performance and efficiency.

Electronic Trading Systems: You'll work with electronic trading systems that execute trades automatically based on predefined algorithms or user instructions. Understanding order execution, order management, and market data processing is crucial.

Multithreading: Multithreading is vital in electronic trading systems to handle concurrent tasks efficiently. You'll need to design, implement, and debug multithreaded applications to ensure optimal performance and reliability.

Low-Latency Systems: Electronic trading often requires low-latency systems to execute trades swiftly. You'll optimize code and algorithms to minimize latency and ensure timely order execution.

Algorithmic Trading: Knowledge of algorithmic trading strategies and implementing them in software is advantageous. This includes understanding mathematical models, statistical analysis, and risk management.

Networking: Understanding network protocols and communication is necessary for connecting trading systems to exchanges, brokers, and other financial institutions. This involves working with TCP/IP, UDP, and messaging protocols like FIX (Financial Information Exchange).

Risk Management: You'll implement risk controls and safeguards in trading systems to prevent erroneous trades or mitigate risks associated with market volatility.

Testing and Debugging: Thorough testing and debugging are crucial to ensure the reliability and stability of trading systems. You'll write automated tests, perform manual testing, and debug issues to maintain system integrity.

Performance Optimization: Continuously optimizing the performance of trading systems is essential to handle increasing trading volumes and maintain competitiveness. This involves profiling code, identifying bottlenecks, and applying optimizations.

Regulatory Compliance: Adhering to regulatory requirements and standards in the financial industry is critical. You'll ensure that trading systems comply with regulations such as MiFID II, Dodd-Frank, and others applicable to electronic trading.

Collaboration: Working closely with traders, quants, risk managers, and other stakeholders to understand requirements and implement solutions that meet business needs.

Documentation: Maintaining clear and comprehensive documentation for code, algorithms, and system architecture is important for knowledge sharing and compliance purposes.

Overall, being a C++ developer in front office electronic trading requires a strong technical foundation, attention to detail, and the ability to work effectively in a fast-paced and demanding environment.
