The mandate.
This is one of our current and upcoming searches, not a single advertised vacancy. We're speaking with C++ developers for permanent roles at digital-asset trading firms, market makers and systematic trading teams in London.
The work covers trading systems and the data around them: low-latency applications, core platform improvements, and working closely with traders on speed, correctness and reliability.
We're looking for solid commercial C++, a good grasp of networking and client-server systems, and the ability to dig into performance problems. Strong maths helps; a PhD isn't needed. Interest in markets and trading matters more than prior finance experience.
Most firms expect several days a week in the office. Bonus structure, office pattern and any relocation or visa support differ by firm and are confirmed before an introduction. We share your details only with your permission for each company and role.
