Job Description:

As a Senior Engineer on the Market Data team, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring reliable and fast delivery of the market data that is foundational to our trading systems. You will build high-performance libraries and services that process vast amounts of real-time data from financial venues across the world—data that all of our trading systems depend on to make critical decisions in the timeframe of microseconds to nanoseconds.

  • Ensure operational safety and uphold the highest standards of software engineering by thoroughly testing code, following a coherent and maintainable design and architecture, and adhering to best practices—prioritizing carefully planned, well-structured solutions over ad hoc implementations

  • Deep knowledge of low level systems programming, optimization, and hardware/software co-design
