Senior Java Engineer – Hedge Fund

Contract Outside IR35 £1200 PD

Jan Start

Hybrid

Quant Capital is urgently looking for a Senior Java Engineer to join our high profile client.

Our client is a well known Systematic Trading Hedge Fund. They like technology especially the opensource variety as well as scalability and robust performance (much like their track record). They currently run around £2 billion in liquid capital.

The business has expanded continuously and is building a new risk engine for their systematic fund clients. This role will be working with a large distributed system (Built in Java) automating a large volume of realtime data into a portfolio management system. I am looking for a proficient developer with good data knowledge and an understanding of latency.

I am looking for an engineer with strong core Java knowledge who is happy to learn risk. You should be happy to expand a data platform from scratch with some serious help on the financial side.

The Java Engineer Must have:

  • 2:1 Computer Science degree from a Red Brick UK or EU University
  • 10+ years plus commercial development experience
  • Strong and demonstrable low-level Java experience
  • Sockets
  • ByteBuffers
  • Strong Database skills
  • Messaging
  • Code generation
  • Currently using Java 8 +
  • An Understanding of computing fundamentals, object orientated programming, threading, concurrency and distributed systems

The environment is that of Facebook or Google, relaxed open with time to think and make the right decisions. The atmosphere is calm and relaxed with an open dress code. This is a role for technologists, those who are motivated by the sharp end of technology and the possibility of making serious money doing something you are passionate about.

My client is based in Central London but does not require office work unless a core meeting is called.
