Production / Systems Engineer (Top Quant Firms | £500k+ TC)

Location: London, 5 days in office

Salary: Total compensation up to £500,000+

Role

Total comp packages up to £500k+ for production and systems engineers at top London quant firms. The compensation is real. So is the engineering bar.

These are firms where every millisecond of latency, every reliability incident, and every architectural decision shows up in PnL within hours. The work is core systems, low-latency platforms, distributed infrastructure, and reliability engineering at a level few non-quant environments demand.

Work

• Build and operate low-latency production systems handling significant order flow
• Own reliability, observability, and performance of mission‑critical infrastructure
• Work on distributed systems, Kubernetes platforms, and high‑throughput pipelines
• Set engineering standards across systems where mistakes cost real money

What you bring

• Strong systems engineering, ideally with low‑latency or high‑throughput production experience
• Deep proficiency in Python, C++, Go, Rust, or Java
