Résumé du poste

NDA Trading Firm is seeking a senior, hands-on C++ engineer to design and optimize the low-latency hot path for automated trading, collaborating with traders and quants. This is a headhunting search for a standout engineer, not a volume hire.

You will own production low-latency trading and market-data components in a fully remote setup across the UK, NL, or FR, with a 12-month contract convertible to permanent terms after mutual agreement.

Qualifications

• ~6+ years of professional C++ engineering in production low-latency systems.
• Modern C++: C++17 minimum, C++20 preferred.
• Direct market-data, feed-handler, or electronic-trading exposure.
• Hands-on with lock-free programming, multicast, low-level networking, and performance profiling.

Responsabilités

• Design, build, and optimize the low-latency hot path for automated/electronic trading in modern C++ (C++17/20).
• Build and maintain market-data infrastructure: feed handlers, ticker plant, order-book construction, and normalization.
• Implement exchange connectivity and FIX-based order flow, including smart-order-routing components.
• Drive down tick-to-trade latency using lock-free data structures, cache- and NUMA-aware design, and kernel-bypass networking (Solarflare/Onload, DPDK).
• Profile, measure, and eliminate latency and jitter across the full stack.
• Translate strategy and execution needs from traders and quants into performant, reliable production code.
• Own components end-to-end: reliability, observability, and incident response.
