A critical thinker with a strong technical foundation and an interest in expanding your programming skills

Trading Desk Operations Engineers wear many hats, helping to manage the operational side of the trading desk’s activities and interfacing with various groups within the firm to ensure our work is accurate and efficient. You’ll work alongside traders and developers to take on projects like:

Managing and optimizing infrastructure and operational processes
