Direct message the job poster from Stanford Black Limited

My client is a boutique hedge fund where elite engineers work on some of the world’s most sophisticated trading strategies.

Overview

Senior C++ engineer focusing on low latency market data infrastructure for a boutique hedge fund. Build one of the fastest market-data platforms in the finance industry, impacting microsecond decisions in trading engines.

What You’ll Tackle

  • Engineer multi-asset feed handlers (NYSE, NASDAQ, B-Pipe, etc.) that stay green.
  • Own the full lifecycle: design to benchmarking to deployment at microsecond granularity.
  • Collaborate with infra to squeeze every last clock cycle from bespoke kernels, FPGA NICs, and bleeding-edge CPUs.

Why This Team

  • £20 billion AUM, cutting-edge hardware, a blank cheque for code that reduces latency.
  • Your commits light up 20+ global desks within minutes, with no middle layers or bureaucracy.
  • Elite colleagues, generally ex-Big Tech, large funds, Olympiad medalists.

What You’ll Tackle (continued)

  • Engineer multi-asset feed handlers (NYSE, NASDAQ, B-Pipe, etc.) that stay green.
  • Own the full lifecycle: design to benchmarking to deployment at microsecond granularity.
  • Collaborate with infra to squeeze every last clock cycle from bespoke kernels, FPGA NICs, and bleeding-edge CPUs.

We Should Speak If You Have

  • Experience writing performance-critical C++ that moves real money (HFT, finance or gaming).
  • Mastery of concurrency, memory models, cache hierarchies, and SIMD.
  • A talent for turning packet captures into elegant, deterministic algorithms.
  • Good educational background.

If your profile is a good fit, I will reach out to you within 12 hours from application.
