Working at Wintermute

We are seeking a C++ Quant Developer who possesses a strong passion for technology. The ideal candidate should have an interest in the intricacies of computer hardware and proficiency in designing and implementing large-scale systems, as well as robust data infrastructure. If you enjoy delving into the inner workings of technology and have a solid understanding of data structures, along with experience in developing client-server network applications and optimizing code for high performance, we would love to hear from you. We value both personal and commercial experience, and having a graduate-level mathematics background is a must, with a PhD not being uncommon among our Quant Developers. Furthermore, an interest in algorithmic and quantitative trading is seen as an asset.

Working at Wintermute provides an opportunity for growth and the ability to make a direct impact on our trading activities.

You will have access to guidance and advice from experienced developers and traders, including our founders. From day one, you will enjoy a considerable level of independence and responsibility, facilitating rapid growth and learning opportunities. We have a flat hierarchy and no complicated approval processes—our developers report directly to the CTO, who is actively involved. You will be challenged to work alongside exceptionally talented colleagues, learning how to write fail-safe code, improve performance and scalability of our trading system, and make a genuine impact. While productivity is paramount, we do expect you to be in the office for at least several days a week in order to collaborate with the team. Our office includes a gym and provides unlimited food and drinks, ensuring a comfortable and pleasant work environment.

Responsibilities

As a C++ Quant Developer at Wintermute, your role will be diverse, with opportunities to shape it according to your strengths and our company's requirements. Your primary focus will be on building data infrastructure to elevate our analytics capabilities and support the scaling of quantitative trading. You may also be involved in upgrading major components of our trading system, designing new applications from scratch, and implementing pricing models.

  • Strong understanding of networking and hands-on experience implementing client-server connections (subject to testing)
  • Experience exploring the inner workings of C++ standard libraries (subject to testing)
  • Excellent analytical skills (subject to testing)

Wintermute Offer

  • An outstanding opportunity to work on interesting projects and assume a level of responsibility and ownership that would be difficult to find elsewhere in the industry or at other trading firms
  • Joining one of the top CeFi teams globally, known for strength and success
  • A corporate culture that is informal, non-hierarchical, ambitious, highly professional, collaborative, and entrepreneurial
  • An innovative office space in central London with a fun sci-fi theme
  • While fully remote candidates will not be considered, we do offer flexibility in terms of working from home and working hours
  • In addition to competitive base pay, we offer substantial performance-based bonuses
  • Standard perks such as pension, private health insurance, and free food are also included, although they should not be the sole reason for considering joining us
