The Trading Infrastructure team is building a high-performance, front-to-back Trading Platform that supports multi-asset trading.
The platform is designed to handle financial instruments with low-latency execution, robust risk controls, and seamless integration across trading, risk, operations, and finance workflows.
The system features a modular architecture encompassing core components such as market data feeds, order gateways, execution algorithms, risk engines, UI dashboards, middle office reconciliation, and account infrastructure.
The team emphasizes event-driven, deterministic system design, real-time observability, and strong security.
The tech stack includes Java (low-latency), Python, Web UI (React/Ag-Grid), Aeron, ClickHouse, Kubernetes, and modern CI/CD tooling, with a strong focus on automation, scalability, and performance.
AI-assisted development tools are leveraged to boost productivity and quality across the team.
Responsibilities include designing and developing core backend systems, implementing ultra-low-latency components, applying event-driven design principles, collaborating with product and trading teams, participating in performance profiling, developing automated test suites, engaging in code reviews, and using AI-driven coding tools.
Requirements:
Candidates must have 5+ years of Java backend development experience, preferably in a trading or real-time system environment.
A deep understanding of Java core internals, multithreading, memory models, and garbage collection is required.
Proven experience in GC-free or low-GC programming, including the use of sun.misc.Unsafe, direct buffers, and memory-mapped files is necessary.
Familiarity with Aeron, SBE, or other low-latency messaging libraries is essential.
A strong grasp of event-driven architecture and experience designing fully deterministic systems is required.
Solid knowledge of time-series and analytical databases like ClickHouse is needed; exposure to kdb+ or InfluxDB is a plus.
Experience with distributed systems, message queues, and performance tuning at the network and application layer is necessary.
Candidates should be comfortable using AI-powered development tools to enhance code quality and development speed.
A strong testing discipline including TDD, benchmarking, and resilience testing is required.
Proficiency in English (spoken and written) is necessary; knowledge of Chinese or other languages is a plus but not required.
Candidates should be comfortable working in a global team and possess strong communication skills to interface across all levels.
