Contract C++ Engineers – Trading Systems (3–6 months, rates negotiable)
I’m supporting a top-tier systematic trading firm on a joint-venture build-out with a multi-billion AUM hedge fund. This is a greenfield project, not refactoring legacy code, where you’ll contribute to the design and development of next-generation trading systems used globally.
What you’ll do:
- Build ultra-low-latency, high-performance C++ components for execution & trading infrastructure
- Work closely with quant researchers and engineers on scalable, reliable systems
- Deliver production-ready solutions in a high-stakes environment
What we’re looking for:
- Strong modern C++ (C++14/17/20) and STL knowledge
- Experience with multithreading, concurrency, and high-performance systems
- Background in trading / market data / exchange connectivity (preferred, not essential)
- Ability to hit the ground running in a fast-paced environment
Details:
- Initial 6 month contract (extension possible)
- Rates fully negotiable depending on experience
- Fully Remote US/ Occasional travel
- If you’re a hands-on C++ engineer who wants to work on cutting-edge trading infrastructure with a global impact, let’s talk.
