Our developers partner directly with traders, quantitative researchers, and infrastructure teams to solve complex technical and strategic problems that drive business impact. 

We're looking for a C++ Strategy Developer to join our Trading Technology team.

  • A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field. 
  • 5+ years of professional experience developing performance-critical applications in modern C++ (C++11/14/17/20). 
  • Strong command of multi-threading, memory management, IPC, STL, Boost, and network/socket programming. 
  • Deep understanding of performance tuning, profiling, and optimization methodologies. 
  • Demonstrated success building systems for automated trading, market-making, or algorithmic execution strategies. 
  • Experience developing logic that manages orders and quotes in fast-moving electronic markets. 
  • Familiarity with option pricing models and risk concepts (Greeks) is a strong plus. 
  • A passion for solving hard problems, iterating quickly, and writing clean, maintainable code. 

What’s in it for you

  • Our flat hierarchy enables you to drive meaningful impact, by leveraging your expertise and taking ownership.
  • Greenfield impact: newly created role as we scale across APAC.
  • Private healthcare and wellness initiatives.
