The suite of pricing and risk management tools that traders and salespeople use every day have historically been “big iron” platforms with limited interaction.

-Work with data science team on equity trading signals project
-Will work closely with quant and tech teams across fixed income businesses

The team works mostly in C++ and Python, so experience in either of these is a plus, but not essential.
Excellent engineering/CS/math schools/education are preferred
Job functions range from hard core low-level C++ development to business specific problem solving, real-time pricing, electronic trading, deal modeling, etc.
