I'm currently hiring for a leading trading firm that is building out next-generation front office trading applications. This is a rare opportunity to join a high-performance engineering team at the early stages of a major build, working closely with traders and quants to deliver low-latency, high-throughput solutions that sit at the core of the firm's trading operations.

As a Mid-Level Front Office Developer, you will design and build new trading services, drive architectural decisions, and take ownership of key components across the trading lifecycle, including pricing engines, risk calculations, and real-time trade capture all within a performance-critical front office environment.
