Java/C++ Developer

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.
