eTrading Developer

Project description

Client is establishing a next-generation electronic trading and market-making platform across assets classes – Rates, Credit, and FX , with capabilities spanning in-house pricing, real-time distribution, and straight-through processing (STP).
We are seeking a Senior Electronic Trading Engineer to design and build low-latency, event-driven trading systems that integrate market data, pricing libraries, and execution venues, enabling real-time streaming, execution, and risk-aware trade processing.
This is a front-office technology role, working closely with traders, quants, and platform teams.

Responsibilities

Key Accountabilities

Platform Engineering & Architecture

Design and implement high-performance, low-latency trading applications

Build event-driven architecture supporting:

Market data ingestion

Pricing orchestration

Real-time price streaming

Develop systems capable of high throughput and deterministic latency performance

Pricing & Quant Integration

Integrate quantitative pricing libraries into real-time trading flows

Work with quant teams to:

Productionize pricing models

Optimize models for latency-sensitive environments

Implement pricing services / APIs consumable by distribution channels

Market Data & Distribution

Integrate with market data providers (e.g., Bloomberg, Refinitiv)

Build low-latency market data handlers for:

Tick processing

Normalization

Internal distribution

Enable real-time price streaming to external/internal clients

Execution & Venue Connectivity

Implement connectivity to:

Trading venues (ECNs, MTFs, dealers)

Internal/external liquidity sources

Develop:

Order routing logic

Execution workflows (RFQ, streaming, DMA)

Support low-latency order lifecycle management

STP & Trade Processing

Ensure integration with:

Trade capture systems (e.g., Murex)

Risk and downstream processing platforms

Build real-time STP pipelines ensuring:

Accuracy

Resilience

Auditability

Performance Optimization

Continuously optimize:

Latency

Throughput

Resource utilization

Apply advanced techniques:

Concurrency / multithreading

Memory optimization

Network tuning

Ensure systems meet strict latency SLAs typical of trading environments

Collaboration & Delivery

Work closely with:

Front Office (trading, sales)

Quantitative research teams

Infrastructure and production support

Participate in Full SDLC (design build test deploy support)

Contribute to architecture decisions and platform evolution
