Job Description

C++ Software Engineer | High-Performance Trading Systems | Remote HFT Job

About the Role

We’re looking for a talented C++ Software Engineer to build and optimize the high-performance systems at the core of our trading infrastructure. You’ll take ownership of real-time components that process market data, manage order execution, and support strategy deployment — all with strict requirements for low latency and rock-solid reliability.

This is a hands-on, end-to-end engineering role in a live trading environment. The ideal candidate brings deep modern C++ expertise and a strong grasp of system-level performance.

Requirements

Minimum Qualifications

  • 3+ years of professional software engineering experience, focused on performance-critical systems

  • Expert-level knowledge of modern C++ (C++17 or later), including templates, memory management, and concurrency

  • Solid understanding of systems programming concepts: CPU architecture, networking, threading, I/O, etc.

  • Hands-on experience with Linux systems development, including debugging and performance tuning tools

  • Proven ability to write clean, efficient, and maintainable production code

  • Strong analytical skills with high attention to detail

  • Comfortable working independently in a fast-paced, fully remote team environment

Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior experience in high-frequency trading (HFT), low-latency systems, or real-time financial infrastructure

  • Experience building market data handlers, matching engines, or order gateways

  • Familiarity with exchange protocols (FIX, WebSocket, REST) and crypto-native APIs

  • Background in mathematics, physics, computer science, or a related technical field

  • Experience with performance benchmarking and hardware-level micro-optimization (e.g., cache-aware design, CPU pinning, instruction pipelining)
