  • Proven low-latency development and performance optimization in HFT.
  • Strong proficiency in C++.
  • Excellent understanding of CPU caches and cache efficiency.
  • Experience with multithreaded and multi-process synchronization.
  • Good understanding of networking protocols.
  • Skilled in performance profiling and optimization tools.
  • Advanced knowledge of Linux operating systems, including kernel-level device mechanisms.

About You:

  • Practical decision-making skills.
  • Excellent communication skills.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Passion for trading.
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team.

Benefits

Annual base salary range of $150,000 to $300,000. Pay (base and bonus) may vary depending on job-related skills and experience.

Our motivation:

We are a company committed to staying at the forefront of technology. Our team is passionate about continual learning and improvement. With no external investors or customers, we are the primary users of the products we create, giving you the opportunity to make a real impact on our company's growth.
