We are seeking a highly skilled C++ Quantitative Developer to join our team within the high-frequency and low-latency trading space, focusing on Cash Equities and Futures across the APAC markets. This role is based in Hong Kong Island and offers an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic, data-driven technology environment where innovation and collaboration are key. You will work directly with traders and quantitative researchers to develop, enhance, and maintain advanced algorithmic trading strategies and the supporting infrastructure that underpins them.

The successful candidate will play a pivotal role in enriching and implementing alpha and trading algorithms while ensuring they adhere to the specific market rules of key Asian exchanges. You will contribute to the design and development of robust, low-latency software systems in a high-performance computing environment. Your work will also support and improve research tools, enabling the efficient backtesting and validation of trading models.

To thrive in this role, you must possess a strong academic background in Computer Science or a related discipline. You should have 3 to 12 years of professional experience within a quantitative trading environment and deep expertise in modern C++ (specifically C++20 or C++23) on Linux platforms. A strong understanding of algorithms, systems programming, and performance optimisation is essential. Additionally, experience with HPC systems in cloud environments and a good command of Python programming are highly desirable.

You should bring a passion for solving complex technical challenges, with a focus on creating resilient, scalable and maintainable solutions. Strong communication skills are crucial, as you will be collaborating closely with both technical and non-technical stakeholders in a fast-paced, international setting.

This is a unique opportunity to engage with cutting-edge technologies in a research-driven environment, working alongside a talented team dedicated to advancing systematic trading strategies. If you are a proactive and detail-oriented developer who thrives on solving intricate problems in low latency systems, we encourage you to apply and take your career to the next level.
