Senior Software Engineer, C++
You'll lead the development and global rollout of the Core market data platform used across multiple focus areas including market data, research engineering, pricing, and strategies. You will design and implement high-performance components for market data ingestion, normalization, and distribution, as well as their use in order execution and strategy infrastructure. You'll develop tools and frameworks that enable quants and technical traders to build, tune, and deploy data-driven systematic pricing and trading strategies. You'll own the full lifecycle of your components in a fast-paced, iterative environment, deploying, monitoring, profiling, and optimizing your code in production. You'll work closely with focus group engineers, quants, and technical traders to refine requirements, collect feedback, and iterate on the platform's design and implementation.
