You'll design, develop, and maintain execution systems and real-time analytics platforms, working closely with traders, quant researchers, and technology teams to ensure the firm's execution capabilities remain best-in-class. Your work will directly influence trading performance, transaction cost analysis, and execution strategy across asset classes.

What you'll bring: Strong KDB+/Q development skills are essential, with a deep understanding of tick data, time-series analysis, and low-latency data processing. Experience in an execution, market microstructure, or algorithmic trading context is highly valued, alongside solid broader programming ability in Python or C++.
