Role Overview 

We’re looking for exceptional engineers to join our latency systems team, where speed, precision, and innovation define our work. You’ll design and build real-time trading and risk systems running at nanosecond latencies, owning modules end-to-end—from design to deployment.

Your focus will include eliminating performance bottlenecks, tuning the OS, kernel, CPU architecture, and optimizing system-level components. You’ll also develop tools for monitoring system performance and work with highly efficient data structures and algorithms to power our next-gen trading infrastructure.

What You'll Work On

• Design and implement real-time trade execution and risk management systems with latency sensitivity that runs into nanoseconds
• Identify bottlenecks in critical path and make the code leaner and faster
• End to end ownership of modules including requirements gathering, designing, implementing and deployment
• Researching for newer opportunity to cut latencies in areas such as OS, kernel, networking stack, kernel bypass, low latency system tuning, CPU architecture, robust and scalable algorithms, cache efficient data structures
• Developing and deploying performance (CPU/network/memory) monitoring tools and algorithm

What We're Looking For

• Pursuing an engineering degree in Computer Science or equivalent from Premier Institutes
• Good problem-solving skills and quantitative aptitude
• Strong background in data structures, algorithms and object-oriented programming, preferably in C++ or C
• Ability to manage multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment
• Strong work ethics and communication skills
• Knowledge of Linux, R, Python/Perl is a plus

Why Join Us

At Quadeye, there’s no hierarchy, no red tape, and we believe that life beyond the desk matters just as much as the work itself. You’ll dive in from day one—owning real trading systems and writing code that moves real capital across global exchanges. Expect full-stack responsibility, direct impact on P&L, and a culture that blends start-up agility with proven stability.
