$133.6k - $167kPEAK6 Investments
WHO WE ARE Headquartered in the historic Chicago Board of Trade, PEAK6 Capital Management is a proprietary options trading firm that has been defining the industry for more than 25 years. While many firms have come and gone, PEAK6 Capital Management has consistently delivered liquidity to the options market. We thrive due to our firm's special blend of financial acumen, ability to manage risk, and cutting-edge technology. Our success is driven by our team of technologists, engineers, and traders who leverage proprietary tech and a data-centric approach to maintain inventory and stay ahead of the markets, so customers can, too. We are committed to providing dependable liquidity, which is crucial for market stability, investor confidence, and efficient trading across asset classes. ABOUT THIS ROLE We are looking for a skilled Engineer to join our core team, initially training alongside our daytime engineers before transitioning to an evening schedule. This role is vital as we grow our services to 24-hour operation. Unlike traditional "on-call" roles, you will be a full-stack contributor to the same high-impact projects and core trading systems as our daytime teams, ensuring seamless continuity and system integrity between trading sessions. Accelerate your career by joining a dynamic, successful team breaking new ground in technology and trading. As a leader in the financial industry, we need incredibly talented minds to design and develop the next generation of sophisticated, proprietary trading tools and technology. In this role, you'll be a part of a skilled, collaborative team designing and developing sophisticated proprietary tools that will directly impact the profitability of our firm.
