Lead Front End Trading System UI Developer | Hedge Fund | London

1 week ago

London, United Kingdom Undisclosed Full time

We are working with a fixed income hedge fund in London looking to hire an experienced software engineer. The fund has had sustained success and have committed significant resource to build their acclaimed quant and tech team. The business blend discretionary and systematic approaches, including machine learning, so they are looking for a developer who has experience building fast UI for (ideally) trading engines / systems. This would suit an ambitious and motivated individual with exceptional programming skills keen to work in a fast paced, collegiate environment. This is a role with significant responsibility and wide scope but in simple terms, our client is looking for an 'UI Evangelist' who can take the lead in making their UI best in class. They are looking for someone with the ability and knowledge to select the best technologies for optimal performance.


The fund we are working with are at the cutting edge of combining a data driven approach with active portfolio management. As part of a wider growth plan, the fund is investing significant resource to building out their technology and quant teams. The tech team are involved in a wide number of projects and have built a cutting edge core trading system. They are working directly with the quant and portfolio management teams to build trading tools and applying machine learning technology and approaches throughout the investment process.


This role will be broad in nature and involve working on a range of different projects but will have a focus on developing the UI for the trading system. You will also work on larger projects that support the wider business. The Quant and Data teams are both working in Python, with the core system in C#, so they are looking for developers with the ability and appetite to work in these languages. User Interfaces will be a large part of this role. These UI’s will be mainly used for the trading engines, so there will be a big focus on the functionality of these as well as how they look. They are seeking fast UI’s here so a large amount of the work will be making sure these are built correctly and can cope with the workload required from the traders.


This fund is a collaborative environment and there will be involvement in several different projects simultaneously. All developers are expected to be involved in discussing and architecting new projects, working on a pipeline of development work, and supporting existing software in production. They are looking for a candidate who can take on immediate significant responsibilities and who can grow further in the role.


In terms of characteristics the fund hires are high performing self-starters with low ego and the ability to be pragmatic in their approach to work. There is significant exposure to working with a range of stakeholders across the business (working particularly closely with the CTO directly), so strong communication skills are essential. Candidates should have a genuine passion for software development and a general positive attitude.


As you will be working closely with the business, previous experience within hedge funds would be advantageous but is not required. The priority is to find an exceptional programmer, so those without financial experience will be considered (if they are able to acquire domain knowledge). That said, candidates with experience working within interest rate trading are particularly welcomed. You must be able to demonstrate an ability to understand statistical analysis and modelling.


This is an excellent opportunity to join a highly successful and very collaborative fund with a progressive and positive working culture that truly values technology as an integral part of their success.


Requirements:

  • Strong academics in Computer Science / equivalent
  • Significant software development experience working with large data sets
  • Experience in the field of systematic would be highly regarded but not essential
  • Experience with fixed income (interest rates) products would be an advantage (but not essential)
  • Excellent, current programming ability in relevant, modern technologies
  • At least 5 years experience (can be significantly more) working in a relevant role
  • Positive, can-do pragmatic attitude


Due to demand, we are advertising this role anonymously. If you would prefer to speak to someone before submitting a CV, please send a blank application to the role and someone will be in touch to discuss.


We can only respond to highly qualified candidates.
