Job description
About the Role
A London-based firm specializing in trading technology is looking for skilled C++ engineers to contribute to building what is considered one of the most sophisticated and fastest trading engines in the cryptocurrency market. This platform combines low latency with integrated machine learning, serving major institutional clients without relying on legacy systems or unnecessary intermediaries. The engineering team is small but highly focused on rapid development and innovation.
Key Responsibilities
- Developing and optimizing high-frequency trading execution across both centralized and decentralized finance ecosystems.
- Implementing transaction cost analysis (TCA) with microsecond precision.
- Designing smart order routing and net settlement processes.
- Contributing to upcoming projects including crypto options, an area with little prior exploration.
Team Expertise
You will collaborate closely with a highly experienced engineer who began programming at a very young age, developed algorithms handling 75% of global derivatives flow at a top bank yielding over $100 million profit in four years, and received personal commendation from the C++ language founder.
Compensation and Process
The position offers a competitive base salary of up to £200,000 with a three-stage interview process. Candidates who thrive on optimizing systems to minimize latency at the micro- and nanosecond level and are passionate about building high-performance solutions with zero compromises are encouraged to apply.
