The infrastructure runs across both on-premises systems and cloud.

You've worked at a systematic fund, a quant trading firm, or you've transitioned from a top tech company and proven yourself in a trading environment.People from firms like the ones you'd expect are what they're looking for. They are looking for people from top tech or quant companies, NOT Banks. * You are a strong Python Engineerwith good C++. * You have quantitative judgment. you need to understand how data, models, and trading systems interact. You can work productively with quants and understand what they need from the engineering side. * You are senior enough to take ownership. CTO wants people he can hand large initiatives to and trust the output. 6 to 15+ years of relevant experience, with meaningful time in high-standards environments. * Your communication skills are excellent- both written and verbal. The bar for this is genuinely high. If you can't articulate your thinking clearly, this isn't the right place for you regardless of your technical strength. * You've achieved things. Years of experience is not the only metric - for example 5 years out of Oxford and already operating at a level most people reach at 12, this is the level we are seeking. ## Description * Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Maths, Statistics, or Operation Research * £120k - £160k+ base (£250,000 - £600,000 overall) * London (office based), Senior Quantitative Developer - LONDON UKRemote Status - No RemoteClient Willing to Sponsor - YesMUST HAVE -Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or Operation ResearchAND from a top 20 internationally ranked universityRelocation Paid - YesRecruit From UK onlyOverall Earnings Potential: £250,000 - £600,000Job DescriptionQuantitative Developer - Systematic Trading (London)A leading systematic investment firm, managing over $6 billion in assets, is spinning out from the quantitative division of a globally recognized hedge fund to become an independent investment firm.
