Python (Programming Language) Information Technology Build Tools Data Pipelines

Job description

? Up to £200,000 + Bonus + Full Benefits

? The Opportunity

Join a leading global hedge fund where technology sits at the core of trading strategy and performance.

As a Python Engineer, you’ll work directly with Portfolio Managers, Quants, and Analysts to build high-performance tools and platforms that power real-time investment decisions and directly impact P&L. This is a hands-on, front-office role with immediate visibility and influence.

? What You’ll Do

  • Design, build, and maintain Python-based trading and research infrastructure
  • Develop bespoke analytics and visualisation tools in close partnership with investment teams
  • Optimise data pipelines, automate complex workflows, and enhance system efficiency

? Why This Role Stands Out

? Front-Office Exposure - Work side-by-side with PMs and Quants on live strategies

High Impact - Build systems that directly influence trading performance

? Top-Tier Compensation - Strong base, performance-driven bonuses, and clear progression

What You Bring

? Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field

? Strong Python experience in high-performance or data-intensive environments

? Understanding of financial markets (equities, fixed income, or derivatives is a plus)

? Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to communicate across technical and non-technical teams

If you’re a Python Engineer looking to take on a front-office role with direct impact, we’d love to hear from you.
