C++ Engineer - £160,000 + Benefits and Bonuses
We’re looking for a hands‑on VP-level C++ engineer to join a top‑tier exchange building out their next‑gen low‑latency trading and market data platform. This is a greenfield project to add options trading capabilities – a rare chance to shape core infrastructure at scale.
What you’ll be doing:
- Writing ultra‑low latency C++ code, tuning for performance and efficiency.
- Working alongside other VP-level C++ developers on mission‑critical systems.
- Driving a test‑first strategy (TDD, BDD, automation frameworks).
- Building out options and derivatives functionality on a high‑performance trading stack.
What we’re looking for:
- Deep C++ expertise – you live and breathe performance optimization.
- Senior / VP-level engineer in your current shop.
- Solid track record with automated testing in production environments.
- Low‑latency, high‑throughput systems experience.
- Financial markets knowledge (options/derivatives) is a plus, not a must.
