New York, United States Hudson River Trading Full time

At Hudson River Trading (HRT), we program computers to intelligently trade on the stock market, and make the world’s markets more financially efficient using smart algorithms. Algo Engineers (AEs) are programmers who develop the software that powers our trading and research. They are the type of engineers that thrive on constant interaction and discussion, and they don’t mind juggling a few projects at once – from long-term new system roll-outs to fire-fighting live issues. 

We’re looking for an Algo Engineer to join our high frequency trading team here in New York. In this role, you will join a team that's embedded in our HFT business and will be tasked with building and maintaining critical trading infrastructure and research tooling to optimize our high frequency effort across major global exchanges. 

Our environment is particularly well-suited to driven, self-motivated programmers. We apply a bottom-up approach that encourages everyone on the team to generate ideas and dictate the direction of projects together. We pride ourselves on writing clean code and building thoughtfully-designed systems.

Responsibilities


Partner with researchers and traders to build and expand our high frequency trading platform and research environment 
Lead the implementation and optimization of our research tools
Participate in projects to accelerate our trading strategy implementation and deployment, improve our backtesting infrastructure, and automate and improve our trade management
Manage codebase quality and build out and maintain critical data pipelines


Qualifications 


Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
Advanced C++ experience is required (daily use preferred)
Experience collaborating closely with quantitative researchers & traders required
Experience working on a HFT system required
Phenomenal design, debugging, and problem solving skills
Knowledge of UNIX operating systems (we use Linux), system/processor performance, and network communication preferred
Familiarity with Python preferred


 

Annual base salary range of $175,000 to $250,000. Pay (base and bonus) may vary depending on job-related skills and experience. A sign-on and discretionary performance bonus may be provided as part of the total compensation package, in addition to company-paid medical and/or other benefits.
