This is a quant engineering role at its core, sitting between research and production and owning the path from a researcher's spec to a live signal trading real capital. You'll work directly with the founders and our quant researchers, and although the role is open to engineers with 2 to 5 years of experience, we expect you to step up quickly, setting objectives, writing specs, breaking work into tickets and guiding the rest of the engineering team with your judgment.

Turn research specs into production signals, including basis and FX pairs, nowcast fits, index futures pricing and momentum

Build and optimize low latency components in C++ and Rust, from market data publishers and book feeds on Aeron to the market making engine itself

Own exchange connectivity across CEXs and tradfi venues (Alpaca, IBKR) covering order books, rate limit pacing, funding and borrow data, and order reconciliation

Debug and harden production systems, including memory profiling, reconnect and heartbeat logic, and crash investigation

Co lead our GCP and Kubernetes infrastructure with an existing senior engineer

Lead the engineering team day to day through specs, code review across our repos and onboarding of junior engineers
