About the role
Partner with quantitative researchers to develop and evaluate high-frequency futures strategies, investigate market microstructure, and translate findings into research. Build the research-to-production pipeline, convert mathematical models into optimized production-grade C++, and support research across CPU, GPU, and TPU hardware. Candidates need expert-level C++, a record of building high-performance software, strong mathematical, statistical, and quantitative foundations, and deep systems programming and performance engineering expertise. Experience at a trading firm, exchange, or similar environment is sought; exceptional systems engineers from outside finance may qualify with credible evidence of market interest.
