Chicago, United States Hudson River Trading Full time

The Systems Development team builds and maintains the platform of infrastructure and software shared by all Systems teams to provision, monitor, and manage our servers and networks. As a systems software engineer, your main focus will be tool development in Python. You’ll improve and integrate existing tools and libraries across the platform, while designing and building new ones to make our trading, research, installation, and monitoring systems easier to manage and more reliable. Strong Python skills and development experience are required, along with general UNIX experience.

Profile

  • BS and/or MS in Computer Science or a related field
  • 3+ years of relevant experience, including programming in Python
  • You use automation to solve problems and improve processes efficiently — - why do the same task twice manually?

  • You’re a seasoned multitasker, with the ability to juggle multiple projects while maintaining a high level of attention to detail
  • You’re familiar with working with open-source software, and interested in learning about networking fundamentals  

 Qualifications
