Description

My client is a boutique hedge fund where elite engineers work on some of the world’s most sophisticated trading strategies. Function: • Building one of the fastest market-data platform in the finance industry. • The trading engines get through billions of ticks per day; your code will decide whether trades land in microseconds or miss the window. Why This Team? • £20 billion AUM, cutting-edge hardware, a blank cheque for code that reduces latency. • Your commits light up 20+ global desks within minutes, with no middle layers or bureaucracy. • Elite colleagues, generally ex-Big Tech, large funds, Olympiad medalists. • Outstanding compensation. What You’ll Tackle: • Build ultra-low-latency distributed code in modern C++ (20/23), leveraging lock-free designs. • Engineer multi-asset feed handlers (NYSE, NASDAQ, B-Pipe, etc.) that stay green. • Own the full lifecycle: design to benchmarking to deployment at microsecond granularity. • Collaborate with infra to squeeze every last clock cycle from bespoke kernels, FPGA NICs, and bleeding-edge CPUs. We Should Speak If You Have: • Experience writing performance-critical C++ that moves real money (HFT, finance or gaming). • Mastery of concurrency, memory models, cache hierarchies, and SIMD. • A talent for turning packet captures into elegant, deterministic algorithms. • Good educational background. If your profile is a good fit, I will reach out to you within 12 hours from application.
