London, United Kingdom Man Group Full time

The Team

Alternative Discretionary Technology is a small and agile team that works very closely with the front-office teams in the UK as well as the US for Man’s discretionary strategies that operate in non-traditional markets. We develop and support a number of platforms for underwriting and ongoing management of private market assets like buy-to-rent housing portfolios, real estate debt and credit risk.

As a developer in Alt Discretionary Tech, you will develop and deploy features for every system that we've built as you communicate requirements and issues with the front-office teams in a way that is markedly different to dealing with exchange-listed securities. Dealing with Real Assets means working with tangible things like properties that have real-world physical and human interactions to cater for in our financial models.

Quant technology in private and alternative markets is a rapidly growing space in which Man is demonstrably on the cutting edge so there are opportunities here to make significant contributions in shaping this alongside the investment teams.

Our Technology

The target technology stack is on Linux with the majority of the code written in Python, using the full scientific stack like pandas and scikit-learn.

We also have C# integrations with Excel, and several web-based tools using a variety of languages and frameworks like React, Streamlit, FastAPI, Django, modern Angular and PHP.

We are heavy users of Man’s own high performance proprietary database ArcticDB, alongside traditional RDBMS’.

Generative AI forms a growing part of our estate as it rapidly evolves and we find more use-cases in automation for our stakeholders. 

All our code is deployed using Kubernetes and modern cluster computing frameworks.

Working Here

Man Tech has a small company, no-attitude feel. It is flat structured, open, transparent and collaborative, and you will have plenty of opportunity to grow and have enormous impact on what we do. We are actively engaged with the broader technology community.

We host and sponsor London’s PyData and Machine Learning Meetups We open-source some of our technology. See We regularly talk at leading industry conferences, and tweet about relevant technology and how we’re using it. See

We’re fortunate enough to have a fantastic open-plan office overlooking the River Thames, and continually strive to make our environment a great place in which to work.

We organise regular social events, everything from photography through climbing, karting, wine tasting and monthly team lunches We have annual away days and off-sites for the whole team As well as PC’s and Macs, in our office you’ll also find numerous pieces of cool tech such as a make-space, tech lending library and music room with guitars and a piano.

We offer competitive compensation, a generous holiday allowance, various health and other flexible benefits. We are also committed to continuous learning and development via coaching, mentoring, regular conference attendance and sponsoring academic and professional qualifications.
