KDB+/q Engineer | Tick Data Platform Migration
£850–£950/day
Tier-1 Systematic Hedge Fund. Start within 4-6 weeks.
This one is rare. A tier-1 systematic hedge fund needs a Senior KDB+/q Engineer to lead a full
migration of their tick data platform from KDB+ 3.x to Kx 4.1 across equities, FX and rates.
You’ll own the migration architecture, manage the transition without disrupting live research
and trading workflows and hand off with full documentation to the permanent
team.
What they need:
→ 5+ years production KDB+/q at a hedge fund, prop desk, or tier-1 IB
→ Deep q language proficiency -tick plant architecture, IPC, complex queries, memory management
→ Proven KDB+ version migrations in live environments
→ Python–KDB integration (PyKX or qPython) beneficial 6 months, strong likelihood of extension.
