We develop, maintain and monitor our fully automated trading system. We hire people with strong technical background who are ready to tackle some of the greatest challenges using the latest technologies.

One of our most important projects is the Backtester. Backtesting is a key component of effective trading-system development. It is accomplished by reconstructing, with historical data, trades that would have occurred in the past using rules defined by a given strategy. Statistics are then computed to measure the strategy performance. Traders can optimize and improve their strategies, find any technical or theoretical flaws, and gain confidence in their strategy before applying it to the real markets.

Your role :

As part of the team, you will be on the trading floor and you will be taking part in design, improving existing components, and coding. You will start on our backtesting framework which is used world-wide for validating quantitative strategies.
