Job description

Technical Project Coordinator (Trading Platform)

iRage is one of India's leading high-frequency trading firms. We build and own everything in-house, from ultra-low-latency execution to full trading infrastructure. Our systems deliver some of the lowest latencies in the market, with order-send speeds under 100 nanoseconds. Our stack is fully in-house: custom FPGA pipelines, kernel-bypass networking, in-house exchange gateways, and a C++ codebase we own end-to-end from market data ingestion to order entry and risk.

We are looking for a Technical Project Coordinator who is at the intersection of software engineering, trading operations, & program management. You will help define requirements, coordinate architecture decisions, coordinate projects with technical personnel & build the processes that keep a world-class HFT engineering team running.

• Manage release schedules for platform updates, exchange connectivity changes (NSE, BSE, MCX) & co-location upgrades.
• Anticipate blockers. Resolve them before they become delays.

Stakeholder & Cross-Team Coordination
