  • Familiarity with margin, funding, and portfolio accounting across venues is a plus.
  • Experience running trading infrastructure in the cloud is a plus.

  • Turn research specifications into production signals, including basis and FX pairs, nowcast fits, index futures pricing, and momentum.
  • Build and optimize low-latency components in C++ and Rust, from market data publishers and book feeds to the market-making engine.
  • Own exchange connectivity across crypto and traditional venues, including order books, rate-limit pacing, funding and borrow data, and order reconciliation.
