They will support your career progression in a well-resourced, fast-moving environment. Together you can make a significant impact and help define the future of trading acceleration using FPGA technology.

What you'll do:
  • Work within the FPGA development team to roll out new hardware to the trading community
  • Interact with development teams to coordinate technology introduction
  • Develop high performance FPGA systems in SystemVerilog and/or HLS
  • Contribute to the development of productivity tooling that supports hardware development efforts
  • Stay informed of industry hardware (including the latest System-on-Chip and System-in-Package)
  • Interpret high-level requirements to create exceptional solutions for the trading community
  • Build your skills in the finance industry and FPGA development flows

Skills you'll need:
  • Strong preference for candidates with experience in proprietary finance, high-frequency trading (HFT) and/or market-making
  • Hands-on FPGA development successes, taking ownership of significant systems and subsystems
  • Sound understanding of technology tradeoffs, and a pragmatic approach to problem solving
  • At least 3+ years of experience working as a FPGA development engineer in a team environment
  • At least 3+ years of RTL experience (SystemVerilog/Verilog/VHDL)
  • At least 2+ years of software development experience
  • Quantitative appreciation of low-level hardware/software interaction
  • Degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science (or related subject)
  • Passion for development, strong work ethic, and drive to continually learn and improve

Bonus points for:
  • Linux experience
  • Scripting language proficiency (preferably Python)
  • High-level Synthesis flows
  • Familiarity with some of: Jenkins CI, Github, ctypes, SWIG
  • Experience of automated testing
  • Embedded processors
  • Networking (Ethernet, TCP/IP, IB)
  • Financial protocol and algorithmic experience
  • High speed networking / serial protocols / transceivers / PCIe

Salary: Variable - they are market leaders in compensation & pay talent based on their technical ability and what they deserve. They do not base offers on your current earnings or average pay for years of experience.
