- Partner with portfolio managers, traders, operations, and risk teams to translate requirements into robust technical solutions.
- Contribute to the architecture and design of low-latency, high-availability components, including multithreaded and distributed systems.
- Write clean, testable, well-documented code; develop unit, integration, and regression tests; and participate in code and design reviews.
- Monitor, troubleshoot, and resolve production issues affecting trading workflows, data integrity, and system performance, participating in an on-call rotation as needed.
- Work with DevOps and Platform teams to improve CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, and observability through logging, metrics, and alerting.
