This is an exciting time to be joining this world-leading company as they transform themselves from a traditional Oil & Gas company into a leading name within the Renewables sector.

These innovative solutions provide opportunities for exceptionally highly talented individuals to contribute to the success of this transition where you will be working with some of the best people in the industry working on new and ground-breaking initiatives utilising the very latest technology.
You will be leading a team of highly skilled C++ developers working closely with the Electronic Market Making (EMM)/Trading Business to build the next generation electronic trading system.
Skills Required:
Minimum 5-10 years of experience contributing to Algorithmic/Electronic/Real Time Trading Systems.
Deep expertise in C/C++ Programming, Systems Design, Architecture, Distributed Systems, DSA, Performance and Latency Optimisation.
Track record of significant contribution to high-performance and sophisticated Algorithmic/Electronic/Real Time Trading Systems at either Hedge Funds, Proprietary Traders, Specialist liquidity providers, or large financial institutions.

Excellent domain knowledge and experience working on Linux platforms.
This role is working in one of the company's premier software development projects enhancing trading capabilities.

The platform has been developed mainly using C++.
This role requires solid and practical experience in developing robust components for multi-process event-driven systems. The primary coding language is C++ while some knowledge and exposure to Python is desirable.
Although the overall programme is a large team (circa 60 people), the members working in this specific part of the programme are part of a self-contained team (3-6 people), so this role is ideal for someone looking to lead a technical team and be recognized for their individual contributions. It will involve working closely and collaboratively with a high performing team, including the Trading Desk/Business in London.
