Linux Engineer Quant Trading
Up to £200,000 + benefits and bonus
Quant Capital is urgently looking for a Linux Engineer to join our high profile client, a well-known and highly regarded quantitative trading firm, liquidity provider, and market maker that operates globally.
This is an environment of Google or a well-funded FinTech startup where tech is number one with a huge budget allocated towards this. The firm is known for its attitudes and rigour, and you will be surrounded by smart people deeply interested in teaching what they know and learning from you.
The members of this team are some of the most talented Linux Engineers, Admins, and Programmers in the country and are tasked with improving and building a best-in-class platform that powers complex proprietary trading systems. The technology is a mixture of in-house and open-source, allowing deep customisation and innovation at every level.
Automation is key for my client; they automate as much as they can to reduce human error, and the team holds the view that automating is enjoyable.
You will need:
* Strong background in STEM education, ideally Computer Science
* Deep and fundamental knowledge of operating systems, predominantly Linux
* Fluent on the command line and shell scripting
* Very comfortable with modern Linux and programming concepts like C, sockets, virtual memory, etc.
* Ability to pick apart and analyse technical problems in a clear and concise manner
* Understanding of networking protocols
* Excellent understanding of debugging tools such as gdb, perf, DTrace, and SystemsTap
* Strong troubleshooting skills
* Strength with any programming language (Go, Python, Rust, Julia, Java, C++, Scala, Haskell, or other functional languages would be a plus)
This is a fantastic opportunity to work in one of the highest skilled Linux teams around with a deep culture of sharing knowledge and experimentation with technology.
My client is based in London.
