Assistant Vice President/ Vice President, Senior C++ Developer, Global Market Technology

We are looking for an experienced Senior C++ Developer to join our global Electronic Trading Technology team. The candidate will be a key contributor to the evolution of our low‑latency automated trading engine – currently a legacy monolith built on TIBCO RV, AMPS, and a C# front end. This role is ideal for someone who is self‑driven, thrives in complex technical environments, and is eager to help modernize a mission‑critical platform used across global markets. The position has a clear growth trajectory into a future Development or Feature Lead role.

• Develop, enhance, and maintain a low‑latency, high‑throughput C++ trading engine running in latency‑sensitive production environments.
• Deep‑dive into a large legacy codebase with minimal supervision – understanding data flows, threading models, network patterns, and message‑bus interactions.
• Participate in architecture simplification efforts by migrating existing components to common foundational services.
• Contribute to the longer‑term strategy of re‑platforming and modularizing parts of the legacy monolith.

• Lead the modernization of CI/CD pipelines, focusing on automated deployment, regression testing, and development workflow improvements.
• Introduce best practices around unit testing, integration testing, performance testing, and observability for a mission‑critical system.

• Work closely with global teams across Hong Kong, Singapore, London, New York, and India to deliver new features and platform improvements.

• 5–10+ years of professional C++ development in latency‑sensitive or real‑time systems.
• Strong understanding of C++11/14/17+, STL, multithreading, lock‑free design, networking, and memory management.
• Prior experience with market connectivity, electronic trading, or high‑performance systems is highly valued.
• Experience working with or supporting legacy distributed systems, ideally involving TIBCO Rendezvous (RV), AMPS or similar pub/sub messaging platforms, and C# for downstream UI or tooling.
• Familiarity with Linux, low‑latency tuning, profiling tools, and debugging in distributed systems.

• Highly self‑motivated with the ability to explore and understand complex code paths independently.
• Strong decision‑making skills – able to assess trade‑offs and propose well‑reasoned technical solutions.
• Comfortable working in a fast‑paced environment where requirements and market conditions evolve quickly.
• Excellent communication skills and experience working with global, cross‑functional teams.

• Exposure to equity, FX, or fixed‑income electronic trading platforms.
• Experience in architecture redesign, monolith decomposition, or service‑oriented migrations.
• Knowledge of scripting languages such as Python or Bash.
• Prior mentorship or team leadership experience.
• Hands‑on experience applying AI/ML techniques or AI‑assisted development tools (e.g., for code analysis, testing automation, performance tuning, or operational tooling) in a production or enterprise environment.
• Hands‑on experience with CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Github Actions, Azure DevOps, etc.) and automated testing frameworks.
