and bugs related to the trading workplace.➢ Stay abreast of emerging technologies in high-performance computing and financial systems.
Required Skills & Qualifications: -
➢ 4+ years of C++ programming experience, with a focus on low-latency and high-throughput systems.➢ Proven experience with microservices architecture in a distributed environment.➢ Experience optimizing systems for low latency ( 12,000 requests per second), particularly in real-time, high-frequency trading applications.➢ Strong understanding of multi-threading, concurrency, and network programming.➢ Familiarity with Linux-based environments (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS).➢ Knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and performance optimization techniques.➢ Ability to analyze and solve complex technical issues quickly and efficiently in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment.➢ Solid communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to collaborate across departments.
Preferred Skills (Good to Have):-
➢ Experience with Go (Golang) in building distributed, micro services-based systems.➢ Familiarity with cloud computing platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), and containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).➢ Exposure to high-performance financial systems, trading platforms, or other financial technology.➢ Understanding of financial instruments, market data feeds, and order routing protocols.➢ Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices.
