Description

Core Developer (Python) Our client, an Algorithmic Trading firm, is looking for an experienced developer to join their Core Development team. Joining them means working on a small, highly efficient team with a broad mandate that covers many areas of the business. The role will be ideal for someone who is pragmatic, passionate about what they do and capable of writing clean and concise code. Neither crypto nor finance experience is required; we care more about your technical skills and mindset. We also look for strong interpersonal skills as you will work closely with traders, C++ developers, middle office, quantitative researchers and the DeFi Team on various projects. Most of their services are written in Python, but they also have high-performance infrastructure written in C++. For both Python and C++ they are usually on the most recent versions. Besides that they use Linux for all machines, PostgreSQL for databases and a few bespoke in-house solutions for problems common in high-frequency trading. Hard skills requirements: At least 2 years of Python experience. C++ experience is an advantage. Experience with SQL databases. Comfortable with Linux. Interest in either crypto or finance. Any experience relevant to the work we do would be an advantage. Location: London, United Kingdom
