Summary
Build high-performance trading UIs with React, AG Grid, and real-time financial data for quants and traders.
We're partnering with a leading quantitative trading firm that's continuing to invest heavily in its engineering teams. They're looking for a talented Software Engineer to help build the next generation of high-performance trading applications used by traders, quants, and researchers across global markets. This is an opportunity to work on complex, data-intensive applications where performance, usability, and reliability are critical. You'll be building sophisticated web-based platforms that process and visualise large volumes of real-time financial data.
Working as part of a highly collaborative engineering team, you'll design and develop modern frontend applications that power trading workflows. You'll work closely with traders, product specialists, and backend engineers to deliver intuitive, high-performance user interfaces.
You'll be involved in:
- Building complex, interactive data grids and financial dashboards
- Developing responsive, performant web applications handling real-time market data
- Creating reusable UI components and internal frontend libraries
- Collaborating with backend teams to integrate low-latency APIs
- Influencing architecture and frontend best practices
We're interested in engineers with strong experience building sophisticated web applications rather than simple websites.

- State management (Redux, Zustand or equivalent)
- Performance optimisation and rendering large datasets
