My portfolio of clients consist of Trading desks within the Investment Banking & Hedge Fund frameworks keen to tap into the technical and intellectual talent of individuals geared to this sector. This client is no exception and are currently looking for a strong developer who has worked within data-intensive environments using core C++ (Unix) programming tools.
You will join a small Trading desk responsible for assisting traders in creating more efficient trading tools for high frequency trading strategies and thus should be highly competent and familiar with the challenges associated with creating data-driven application suites in real-time systems.
Strong candidates should be adaptive to multi-threaded application development as well as working on systems dealing with complex numerical data. Industry exposure is less of a concern compared to your track record as a high level developer/programmer on C++ Unix platforms.
Sound like a challenging role? CVs to discuss this or similar opportunities in the sector.
