  • Strong fundamentals in software engineering: testing, version control, CI/CD, clean architecture
  • Passion for building internal tools, research frameworks, or working on data-heavy systems
  • Bonus: Exposure to pandas, NumPy, asyncio, Cython, or PyArrow. Familiarity with C++ is a plus
  • Bonus++: Experience working with quants, data scientists, or in trading environments
