WHAT’S DIFFERENT ABOUT A TECHNOLOGY CAREER AT IMC?

At IMC, technology is not a department; it’s at the heart of everything we do. Since the late 1980s, we’ve pioneered the use of technology to advance the development of market making and low-latency trading. Today, our technologists work alongside IMC traders in multidisciplinary teams to push the limits of possibility, and then look beyond. In our fast-paced environment, short feedback loops and rapid systems development put new features in users’ hands as quickly as possible.

GRADUATE HARDWARE ENGINEER:
Are you someone who is passionate about challenging the status quo? Do you enjoy the process of problem solving, a process where you recognize areas of improvement and iterate and innovate to improve? Does your curiosity and desire to learn drive you?

ROLE OVERVIEW:
If so, then join IMC as a Hardware Engineer! At IMC, Hardware Engineers don’t just write code and design technology. They are responsible for spotting new opportunities, developing new technologies and solving problems. As a result, they deliver results and make a difference. IMC knows that having the best technology is what drives our business. Hardware development here is innovative, pragmatic and fun, even as complexity grows.

As a Hardware Engineer you will learn what it means to be an Engineer in a real-world environment. The program is focused on enhancing your knowledge of algorithm complexity, professional design, and writing fluent code. Your responsibility does not stop at programming; it also encompasses knowledge building of our business model and building relationships across our trading and technology teams.

As a Hardware Engineer at IMC you will be supported by both a mentor and a lead who will oversee your projects and professional development. You will enjoy close collaboration with team members, as well as participate in our incredible social activities and events. You’ll begin your first few weeks at IMC in a cohort participating in our traineeship – a global program meant to enhance your skillset, learn our systems, and apply your new knowledge – before you hit the desk and start making an impact.
