London, Greater London, United Kingdom DRW Holdings, LLC. Full time

DRW is a diversified trading firm with over 3 decades of experience bringing sophisticated technology and exceptional people together to operate in markets around the world.

Headquartered in Chicago with offices throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, we trade a variety of asset classes including Fixed Income, ETFs, Equities, FX, Commodities and Energy across all major global markets. We have also leveraged our expertise and technology to expand into three non-traditional strategies: real estate, venture capital and cryptoassets.

Your work will be used throughout the organization on a daily basis by traders, risk managers, and back office analysts.

To qualify for this role, you:

  • Have at least 5 years of professional experience with modern C++

  • Have extensive hands-on experience with Python, C#
  • Have hands-on experience integrating analytics libraries with large scale software systems and services
  • Have experience with optimizing software for performance
  • Have practical experience designing API for embedded libraries
  • Have experience developing and providing front-line support for high-performance financial analytics code
  • Have created and supported user-facing interactive, UI-based tools for pricing, PnL and Risk calculations and market analysis
  • Have strong communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work within a multi-disciplinary team that includes traders, software engineers, and quants
  • Have strong sense of ownership of work and the ability to work independently and under pressure
  • Have experience with SQL / NoSQL / Redis / RabbitMQ / OLAP

Bonus points if you have:

  • Experience with interfacing C++ code with higher-level languages (e.g. Python, Java, C#) using SWIG or similar tools
  • Experience with Adjoint Algorithmic Differentiation
  • Experience with other programming languages such as C# (highly desirable), Java and VBA
  • Experience with statistical analysis and working with large datasets provided in relational or key-value databases
