About:
This is one of the world’s largest market-makers, trading more than $17 trillion securities. An incredibly tech-focused company, they hire some of the best developers from around the world (open to any coding language background). Well-known users of OCaml and a large open-source presence means engineers here can see their code being utilised as part of these huge trades, as well as having a life beyond the company in the developer community – one of the main draws for the many engineers that have joined from both tech and other financial firms.

7. Collaboration: Strong interpersonal skills to work effectively within small teams.
About You:
Candidates from any OO programming background who are eager to learn new languages and technologies are welcome. No prior experience in finance is necessary; they are more interested in your problem-solving skills and your ability to learn.
