C++ Developer recruitment

low latency, real time systems, market maker, prop trading, C++ developer to work on an extremely interesting project responsible for evolving all aspects of the real time C++ trading system for a dynamic proprietary trading house in the City.

The core technology is written in C++ and apart from some open-source components they essential do not rely on any third party software or APIs. Experience developing with third party platforms or middle-ware is therefore of less interest than someone who has worked with proprietary code-bases.

Additional experience with other languages is not detrimental, but the candidate should have an expert level of the C++ language (expert means that they know the language syntax back-to-front; have an in depth understanding of the semantics of different syntactic constructs; have a reasonable knowledge of what's happening 'under the hood'; have a good understanding of core computer science concepts; have used 'tricks of the language on occasion; and would rate themselves as 'expert' whilst recognising that however much they learn about the language, there is always more they don't know.

Example characteristics of a candidate who would be a of interest to us:

- Wickedly smart, although with no hint of arrogance
- Probably has an engineering, maths, physics or computer science degree, although this is not a requirement
- Expert knowledge of C++
- Strong understanding of working on 'real-time', 'low-latency' systems
- Enjoys the creative process involved in development, but also motivated to deliver well-written and tested code into production
- Enjoys taking ownership of their own set of C++ projects, but can also effectively communicate with their peers and other teams within the organisation to discuss ideas and contribute to larger development efforts

-VERY INTERESTED IN SPEAKING TO PEOPLE FROM A GAMING BACKGROUND.
