London, United Kingdom Hudson River Trading Full time

Hudson River Trading (HRT) is looking for Crypto Electronic Trading Support Engineer to join our Trade Operations (TradeOps) team in our London office. This team is responsible for managing HRT’s live trading environment, one of the most robust and efficient electronic trading platforms in the world. This includes configuring, monitoring, and optimizing the firm’s trading as well as handling risk, regulatory, and development tasks. The TradeOps team focuses on automating common tasks and preparing for the unexpected. Your day could consist of debugging to get a process running in time for the market open, making a difficult on-the-spot decision that balances compliance, risk, and PnL during trading hours, or coordinating the technical rollout of a new trading strategy.

Being a member of TradeOps at HRT supporting crypto means working on a tight-knit, highly productive team. We're looking for someone who loves technology, is passionate about crypto, and wants to work on a broad range of projects using whatever tool(s) best solve the problem at hand. Excellent communication is a must, along with a can-do attitude.

Role

In a high-performance environment, immediate awareness of and reaction to systems and trading issues is essential. That’s where HRT’s Electronic Trading Support Engineers come in. You’ll be responsible for onboarding new crypto markets, managing new initiatives, and ensuring a smooth trading day. You will be the first line of defense when the inevitable happens, and the subject matter expert on recent changes to the production trading platform. The team’s scope covers everything from systems infrastructure to compliance, risk management, overnight clearing, and performance improvement.

please note: this role requires working US time zone hours (New York)

Responsibilities

  • Support live crypto trading (during Eastern Time Zone daylight hours)
  • Handling order flow from HRT’s trading desks
  • Responding to external market alerts and outages
  • Interfacing with exchanges & other external parties to support trading

Profile

  • Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative discipline (CS, engineering, physics, math, etc.)
  • Working knowledge of UNIX systems
  • Experience with a scripting language (Python, Perl, Bash)
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to effectively interface with developers and traders
  • You are incredibly organized, and have high attention to detail
  • You are excited to work independently in a very fast-paced, high pressure environment
  • Strong interest in crypto — you follow the digital assets space in your spare time

Qualifications

  • Understanding of various financial products, including equities, crypto products, and derivatives
  • Overall interest in the market structure and trading space
  • Series 7/57 certification or willingness to obtain certification is a plus
  • Please note: this role requires working US Eastern Time Zone hours from London
