Job description

At Quadrature, we're building the ultimate automated trading system: one that ingests data, forms views, executes in the market, and learns from the result to get better and faster. Every component - research infrastructure, low-latency stream processing, distributed data systems, trade execution, observability - is part of that system. The goal is for human effort to compound, rather than be spent solving the same problems again and again.

Our Quantitative developers work across all aspects of this system and we’re always on the look out for exceptional quant developers and software engineers who want to help build it. Where you might join depends on your strengths and interests.

What we're looking for

• Strong programming skills - we primarily work with Python, C++ and Rust, but we care more about how you think than the languages you've used.
• Sharp design instincts and experience building or operating distributed systems.
• Genuine curiosity about how systems work: how they fail, how they're operated, and how they evolve.
• Care for the people and code around you, and the drive to keep making both better.

If you want to do the best work of your career, we'd love to hear from you.
