Senior kdb+ Contractor – Capital Markets
London | Contract
I’m working on a new contract opportunity for a senior kdb+ engineer to work on complex, real-time data platforms within financial markets.
This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who enjoys getting into the detail — building and improving high-performance kdb+ systems, working with large volumes of market data and solving problems where latency, scalability and reliability are critical.
- Experience building and improving production kdb+ platforms
- Good understanding of real-time and time-series data
- Background within capital markets, trading or investment banking
- Experience working with large, high-frequency datasets
- Comfortable owning technical decisions and working directly with stakeholders
Experience with Python, cloud environments, electronic trading or modern AI development tools would also be useful.
This could be a great fit for an experienced kdb+ engineer looking for a technically challenging contract where you’ll have genuine ownership over the systems you’re working on.
