C/C++ low level network/hardware software engineers – Algorithmic trading fund – San Fran, Seattle and New York recruitment
I am currently working with a leading Hedge Fund with offices in New York, San Francisco and London who are looking to build out a new global high frequency trading business.
The company have over 400 employees and over 50% are software engineers. The environment is very similar to Google, Facebook and Amazon etc… It is not like your typical financial company.
The fund is currently working on building out an ultra-high frequency trading group where the speed matters. They are looking for exceptionally talented C or C++ low level programmers who have experience of working with Linux kernel devices and working on the network protocols and hardware.
My client would be more interested to speak with candidates that are currently working outside the financial services industry e.g. network, telecommunications etc...
However I am specifically interested to speak to people who have worked previously at a network or hardware company for example Cisco, Sun, Intel or IBM.
The job will involve working with like minded individuals who have a strong passion for technology and have studies either computing (comp sci) or electrical engineering from a top tier university.
The company have one of the best staff retention rates worldwide and the benefits associated with the firm are huge.
This is an extremely rare opportunity for the successful candidate to work for one of the most successful trading companies worldwide and be part of a unique team.
Please either call +447786395075 outside office hours or email b.herman@westbourne-partners.com to discuss in strictest confidence.
