Software Engineer (London Area)

I am currently partnered with a leading algorithmic trading firm based in London that actively trades on over eighty venues with daily volume of almost $300bn.

Providing liquidity in Equity, FX, Fixed Income, Commodity & Options, they are looking for a C++ Software Engineer to join their exchange trading development team.

This is a hybrid role based in London.

**Market leading salary + bonus**

Requirements :

• Strong knowledge of modern C++ (C++11 onwards).
• Understanding of caching, paging and system calls. (Knowledge of the execution pipeline in a modern CPU is even better)
• Knowledge of pipelines and networking
• Common algorithms and data structures and their performance trade-off.
• Work independently designing complex systems that need to run uninterrupted for long periods of time.
• Practical experience designing and implementing software systems is a plus.
• Familiarity with the Linux command line and common tools is a plus but by not a necessity.
• Prior finance knowledge is not required.

If this looks like something you would be interested in then please respond to this message ASAP or email me at jamesnicholls@albertbow.com and we can arrange a call to discuss further.

I look forward to hearing from you.
