I'm currently partnered with a top-tier global quantitative & systematic trading firm that is scaling its Crypto engineering and research group. This is a unique opportunity to join a high-impact quant technology team building the next generation of systematic crypto trading systems.

  • Work hand-in-hand with traders and quants to deploy, support, and automate 24/7 crypto strategies.
  • Contribute to both greenfield development and the evolution of an already sophisticated, high-throughput tech stack.

What They're Looking For

  • 3+ years of professional software engineering experience.
  • Expert-level C++ skills; strong Python a plus.
  • Experience in systematic trading or quantitative environments is advantageous.
  • Genuine passion for crypto, DeFi, and cutting-edge trading innovation.
  • Strong understanding of real-time, scalable, robust systems.
  • Proven ability to architect high-performance, end-to-end systems.
  • Experience with DevOps, CI/CD, AWS is beneficial.

Why This Opportunity Is Exceptional

  • Work in a front-office, revenue-driving engineering environment.
  • Build state-of-the-art systems across both centralized and decentralized markets.
  • Join a culture where innovation, autonomy, and engineering excellence are core values.
  • Direct impact on strategy performance and technology evolution.
  • Opportunities available across their London, Zurich and Paris office.
