Recruiter

We are a technology-driven proprietary trading firm specialising in trading options on futures. Operating in some of the most competitive electronic markets globally, we combine deep market expertise with high-performance software to identify and execute trading opportunities at speed. Our success is driven by close collaboration between traders and engineers, enabling rapid iteration and precise execution of sophisticated strategies.

The Role

We’re looking for an experienced C++ Software Engineer to join our trading technology team. You’ll play a key role in building and maintaining performance-critical systems responsible for real-time strategy execution. This is a hands-on engineering role where your work has a direct and measurable impact on trading performance.

What You’ll Do

  • Design, build, and maintain low-latency C++ systems for trading strategy execution
  • Work closely with traders, quants, and fellow engineers to take strategies from idea to production
  • Optimise performance across the stack — networking, operating system, compiler, and code
  • Contribute to system architecture, monitoring, and deployment pipelines
  • Debug and improve systems running under real-world, time-critical conditions

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong proficiency in modern C++ (C++17 or newer)
  • Solid grounding in computer science fundamentals (data structures, algorithms, concurrency)
  • Proven ability to debug, profile, and optimise high-performance systems
  • Comfortable working in Linux and with system-level programming
  • Ability to own projects end-to-end and work autonomously
  • Clear communicator who thrives in a fast-moving, high-stakes environment
