Discussion

An exceptional opportunity to join a world-leading HFT and market-making firm as a C++ Engineer.

The firm has designated its Trading Teams as a priority growth area for the coming year and is hiring several C++ engineers from a range of backgrounds — trading systems, HPC, games, kernel/systems, or anywhere C++ performance is a genuine priority.

Key points:

  1. Compensation: Exceptional. They don't publish ranges, but can almost always improve on your current package — and comp is 100% cash, with no deferred or equity component.
  2. Location: London
  3. Visas: Sponsorship provided, relocation support available

You don't need a finance background. What matters is deep C++ expertise and a genuine interest in performance — profiling, optimising, and understanding how your code behaves on the hardware it runs on.
