We constantly look for opportunities to advance and improve our pricing, trade execution, and risk management. This rigorous approach helps us realize our mission each and every day: improve the markets.

Hardware Engineers here, build hardware-based trading systems ranging from low latency algorithms to high bandwidth computation. They are responsible for owning all aspects of the development process from ideation to implementation creating bespoke solutions to our complex trading problems. Their systems have little room for failure which add to the stability of the market, not detract from it. Working in close collaboration with software engineers and traders, hardware engineers deeply understand our trading problems and create dynamic, well-architected systems that make an impact in a matter of days and weeks rather than months and years.

Technology:

We pride ourselves on being real engineers, not just coders. Our engineers work closely with traders to identify the business problems we face and determine how they should be solved. We apply a disciplined and scientific approach. We engineer simple, well-architected solutions that meet the dynamic needs of our traders. Our passion is to solve problems which really matter to the business, and we take pride in the quality of our solutions.

What you’ll do:

• Manage relationships with 3rd party vendors.
• Work in a multidisciplinary team of traders, software developers, and infrastructure engineers.
• Research new low-latency techniques and platforms and identify opportunities for integration with our trading system.
• Accelerate network infrastructure and trading system components with high speed hardware designs.
• Leverage the best hardware available or build in-house versions to ensure our FPGAs can interface with cutting edge server hardware.

What you'll need:
