C#/.Net Developer | Trading Systems Developer 
 
Are markets predictable? Maybe. Are humans predictable? Most certainly not. Can mere mortals capitalise on the movements of hive mentality? Most certainly yes. These people do it daily.

Market movers. Market makers. They play the game which is usually based on highly sophisticated acquisition of knowledge, patience and well-timed courage. The courage to make a move. To act. All in a day’s work.

Well… not your day’s work. Let’s talk about your day to day. 

Your role is developing and building the systems that support the wizards. These systems help them to acquire the knowledge that make these trading decisions. These bleeding edge technical solutions support quant traders and analysts. Trading systems for financial products like futures & options. The development of business-critical Trading Systems. Essentially you are the foundation for the courage that makes markets.   

It’ll involve taking ownership of projects through the entire SDLC, from gathering to release. You’ll collaborate with the whole team to achieve the most fluid outcomes and you will always be looking at ways to optimise, automate and improve the systems that you create.

You’ll need an interest in how this universe works. A knowledge of financial markets and an understanding of the psychology of what makes humans tick.

The knowledge of mathematical concepts that support the ideas of futures & options.  An interest in games (like Chess or Poker) and game theory. It goes without saying that you will be an incredibly solid software engineer specialising in the C# & .Net stack.
  
You’ll need:

• A degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics (or something similar)
• Love building complex software that solves problems and works with large data sets
• Experience building out financial Trading Systems is a huge plus, (quant, risk, risk) but knowledge and interest in this is a must
• You are a seasoned software engineer with C# & .Net working on large-scale enterprise products, particularly finance-related
• Any experience working on Trading Systems in the past for products such as futures, options, derivaties, algo, risk would be highly regarded. 

In return:

• You’ll get to work in an environment like no other
• You’ll get paid incredibly well with base and bonus (we don’t talk about money, but trust us, we don’t need too)
• You won’t have to worry about food, health insurance, the gym
• You’ll get to work in one of the best offices in Sydney, overlooking the harbour and working with some extremely talented people every day
