Senior Software Engineer (Top Market Maker)

Full-time

Radley James

We’re working with a leading proprietary trading firm that is expanding its presence in the equities space, building on its successful diversification into futures. Traditionally recognized as a powerhouse in options market making, they are now assembling a top-tier C++ engineering team in New York to gain a competitive edge against established equities players.

They are seeking C++ developers of all experience levels to join this ambitious build-out. You’ll work on cutting-edge, latency-sensitive trading systems, building and optimizing the infrastructure that will drive their equities trading strategies. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a major strategic move, contributing to a greenfield project with the backing of an industry leader.

What They’re Looking For:

  • Strong proficiency in C++ (modern C++ preferred) and low-level systems programming.
  • Experience building high-performance, low-latency, or real-time systems.
  • Familiarity with trading systems, market data, or financial protocols is a plus, but not required.
  • Passion for solving complex technical problems in a fast-paced environment.

This is a rare chance to be part of a high-impact initiative, where you’ll collaborate with world-class engineers and traders to shape the future of their equities business.

If you’re interested in pushing the boundaries of performance and making your mark in equities trading, get in touch.
