**About Us**:
The hiring company is an easy-to-use investments and payments app. Specialising in digital assets, we serve more than 10 million customers in 150 countries. We open around 3,000 accounts a day and provide consumers with a more versatile and cost-effective home for their daily financial lives.

For businesses, we provide regulated infrastructure to connect cryptocurrencies with fiat currencies. Today, we support over 200 digital assets, 28 national currencies and four precious metals. Our unique trading experience allows customers to trade directly between any supported asset or currency in one step - physical gold to Bitcoin, for example - saving both time and money.

**What We Do**:
Our reserve trades cryptocurrencies across centralized exchanges (CeFi) and decentralized exchanges (DeFi). Our team has a background in high-frequency, quantitative trading and we create trading strategies that leverage automation.

We develop and support the pricing of cryptocurrencies to both retail and institutional customers. We own the hedging and inventory management processes to maximise risk adjusted revenue for the business.

**How We Do It**:
We use a variety of technologies: C++ for areas that require high performance, NodeJS for specific integrations, Python for analysis, and Go for general solutions. In addition, we utilize (My|Postgre) SQL, Redis, bash, Linux, etc. Generally, we try to use whatever tool is best for the job, without letting the stack grow too complicated.

We require a quant trader to help maintain, evolve and develop our trading strategies.
- Have at least five years experience working as a quant trader for a market maker or HFT
- Experience with trading systems and large complex codebases
- Experience resolving live trade issues by identifying the problem and taking the appropriate steps such as amending system parameters

- Effective communication skills; a positive, team player
- Experience using Git in production environments
- Comfort taking ownership of projects such as new opportunities for the desk, leading new product rollouts, and participation in discussions with senior management
- Ability to be highly effective in remote-first environment

**Bonus if you have**:

- Working knowledge of C++
- MySQL or Postgres
- Makefiles and bash scripting

**What we have to offer you**:

- An amazing work environment in a company that continues to grow, driven by extraordinary and passionate people that keep innovating.
- An international team, in a cutting-edge field, working on fascinating projects.
- Growth and career opportunities, and the chance to be proactive and creative.
