The Opportunity

Join one of the world’s leading hedge funds as a KDB+/Q Developer, building next-generation research and analytics platforms that power real-time trading across global markets.

• Meritocratic Culture – Ideas are valued, ownership is real
• Speed & Impact – Low bureaucracy, high autonomy, tangible results

What You Bring

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related STEM field
• Strong experience with KDB+/q (ideally in trading or real-time data environments)
• Understanding of market data systems, electronic trading, or low-latency architectures
