Job description

IMC’s Mumbai-based C++ Execution development teams work on software that sits directly in the latency-critical loop of our technology stack and touches every part of our organization.

Your Core Responsibilities

As a software engineer, you’ll work in multidisciplinary teams alongside other engineers as well as traders, researchers, and quants to deliver challenging projects, while taking ownership of end-to-end product development—from requirements gathering to production. You’ll write reliable, high-performance software while balancing time to production with quality and testability. Advanced automated testing and daily deployments will allow you to achieve agile and incremental benefits.

Within a complex landscape of varying systems and technologies, you’ll be constantly challenged to consider trade-offs between latency, throughput, simplicity, scalability, and maintainability.

These are just some of the technologies our C++ software engineers are currently working with: C++ 20, Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, Apache Kafka, Apache Spark, Impala, Hadoop, Python, and FPGAs.

• Strong academic background in Computer Science (B. Tech/B.E), with 4–8 years of work experience in C++
• Natural problem-solvers who enjoy tackling fresh challenges each day
• Team players: to succeed, software engineers must be able to build strong relationships with those around them
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; fluency in English
