C++ Software Developer, Risk Technology

In questa role you will design and optimise C++ software for a global trading risk platform. You’ll contribute to high-performance, deterministic risk calculations across asset classes in a Linux, service-oriented environment. You work with real-time market data, pricing models, and distributed components to deliver reliable risk analytics under strict latency targets. It’s a chance to shape core risk infrastructure that supports front-office and portfolio management teams with scalable technology.

• Develop and evolve C++ components for a high-throughput risk platform
• Ensure deterministic and accurate risk calculations as data volumes grow
• Integrate pricing models and manage market data ingestion
• Support portfolio aggregation and the propagation of risk metrics across distributed systems
• Maintain low-latency processing and robustness in a Linux-based, service-oriented architecture
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate trading concepts into maintainable software

• Strong C++ development experience in Linux
• Experience in financial services, trading or risk platforms
• Understanding of risk calculations across asset classes (equities, derivatives, FX, fixed income)
• Deep knowledge of algorithms, memory management, multithreading, and performance optimisation
• Experience with large-scale distributed systems and high-volume data
• Familiarity with messaging systems such as Kafka, AMPS, or QPID
• Python or Bash tooling experience; Q or KDB exposure is valuable

• Strong problem-solving abilities
• Collaborative and cross-functional communication
• Proactive and results-oriented
• C++ in Linux
• Distributed systems
• Market data ingestion
