MORE ABOUT THIS JOB:

What We Do

The Equity Derivatives Automation Strats team is responsible for designing, implementing and maintaining the models and systems used for pricing and trading equity derivatives.

Starting with our equity options franchise, our broad mandate is to build the infrastructure and models which help the franchise effectively manage our positions and risk.

In addition, our team builds the tools that collect, curate and analyze trading and market data in order to improve the overall profitability of the equity derivatives franchise.

Who We Look For

We are looking for engineers who are motivated to build out the next generation of trading solutions for the firm and want to work in a fast-paced production environment to keep up with the markets.

This role is for you if you are equally excited about creating pricing models as you are about writing flexible and resilient code to implement your algos.
