Python, C++, Systematic Quant Finance, DeFi

A leading global quantitative investment firm is seeking exceptional Python developers/ Quants to revolutionize their cryptocurrency trading infrastructure. This isn't your typical finance tech role - you'll be architecting ultra-responsive trading systems that process complex algorithmic strategies across global markets, running 24/7 within a tech-first buyside firm who view developers as central staff rather than a cost centre.

Key highlights:

  • Build end-to-end trading technology from the ground up
  • Work alongside world-class traders and quantitative researchers
  • Experiment with state-of-the-art technologies and architectural approaches

Required skills:

  • Excellent Python programming ability. You will be in the 2-12 year experience range working as a Quant/Developer for a leading financial services company
  • Prior and recent experience working for either a crypto trading company or in systematic/ high frequency/ algo trading
  • Clear experience working directly with quant researchers, traders and portfolio managers
  • Evident interest in DeFi trading (no prior crypto experience required)
  • Exposure to C++

WFH: Hybrid from Central London

Bonus: Guaranteed. The client can also buyout existing bonuses and/or provide sign-on
