Job Description

The Role

Most backtests look brilliant until they meet a live order book. Your job is making sure this one survives the trip.

You'll join the systematic trading arm of a privately owned investment group as it takes a futures strategy out of research and UAT and into live markets, trading the owners' own capital. You'll own the critical path end to end: market data, execution, broker connectivity and the hard limits that sit between a bug and a margin call.
