Head of InfoSec Engineering The Role The Infosec Engineering team is responsible for defining and implementing technology that improves the security of our estate and makes it easier for engineers to make better security choices. The team works closely with the Infosec team, who are responsible for SecOps and risk compliance, as well as the other infrastructure and development teams. As the manager of this small team, you should have some experience as team or technology lead and be familiar with the technical detail of the work. For example, one day you may be working with vendors to select the next network monitoring hardware/software, and the next helping automate IAM/JLT processes using Python against an API. This is a very collaborative role, and you will work with engineers and managers across Man at all levels. The role requires you to be able to understand technology to a deep level, but also communicate to stakeholders, and provide guidance and leadership. You will be an ambassador and champion for improving security, with a passion for how security can be improved balancing the trade-off between productivity and risk. Our Technology Our end-user platform consists of a mix of Windows and Mac laptops and desktops. We operate a hybrid WFH model, so many users are connected over our GlobalProtect VPN.

We run a mix of Crowdstrike, Proofpoint, Tessian, Tenable and other 3rd party tools to monitor and gather information about our estate. In addition we build tools using primarily Python to automate solutions. Our technologists and researchers use a constantly evolving set of systems, tools, and libraries. Most of our code is in Python, with the full scientific stack: numpy, scipy, pandas, scikit-learn to name a few of the open-source libraries we use extensively. We implement the systems that require the highest data throughput in Java and C++. We use Airflow for workflow management, Kafka for data pipelines, Bitbucket for source control, Jenkins for continuous integration, Grafana + Prometheus for metrics collection, ELK for log shipping and monitoring, Docker and Kubernetes for containerisation, OpenStack for our private cloud, Ansible and Terraform for architecture automation, and Slack for internal communication. Working Here Man Technology has a small company feel. It is flat structured, open, transparent and collaborative, and you will have plenty of opportunity to have enormous impact on the firm.

The Team Alternative Discretionary Technology is a small and agile team that works very closely with the front-office teams in the UK as well as the US for Man's discretionary strategies that operate in non-traditional markets. We develop and support a number of platforms for underwriting and ongoing management of private market assets like buy-to-rent housing portfolios, real estate debt and credit risk. As a developer in Alt Discretionary Tech, you will develop and deploy features for every system that we've built as you communicate requirements and issues with the front-office teams in a way that is markedly different to dealing with exchange-listed securities. Dealing with Real Assets means working with tangible things like properties that have real-world physical and human interactions to cater for in our financial models. Quant technology in private and alternative markets is a rapidly growing space in which Man is demonstrably on the cutting edge so there are opportunities here to make significant contributions in shaping this alongside the investment teams. Our Technology The target technology stack is on Linux with the majority of the code written in Python, using the full scientific stack like pandas and scikit-learn. We also have C# integrations with Excel, and several web-based tools using a variety of languages and frameworks like React, Streamlit, FastAPI, Django, modern Angular and PHP. We are heavy users of Man's own high performance proprietary database ArcticDB, alongside traditional RDBMS'. Generative AI forms a growing part of our estate as it rapidly evolves and we find more use-cases in automation for our stakeholders. All our code is deployed using Kubernetes and modern cluster computing frameworks. Working Here Man Tech has a small company, no-attitude feel. It is flat structured, open, transparent and collaborative, and you will have plenty of opportunity to grow and have enormous impact on what we do. We are actively engaged with the broader technology community. We host and sponsor London's PyData and Machine Learning Meetups We open-source some of our technology. See We regularly talk at leading industry conferences, and tweet about relevant technology and how we're using it. We're fortunate enough to have a fantastic open-plan office overlooking the River Thames, and continually strive to make our environment a great place in which to work. We organise regular social events, everything from photography through climbing, karting, wine tasting and monthly team lunches We have annual away days and off-sites for the whole team As well as PC's and Macs, in our office you'll also find numerous pieces of cool tech such as a make-space, tech lending library and music room with guitars and a piano. We offer competitive compensation, a generous holiday allowance, various health and other flexible benefits. We are also committed to continuous learning and development via coaching, mentoring, regular conference attendance and sponsoring academic and professional qualifications. Technology and Business Skills We strive to hire only the brightest and best and most highly skilled and passionate technologists.

The Role As a Quant Developer at AHL you will be working hand-in-hand with our Quant Researchers. Your challenges will be varied, and will involve implementing new trading strategies, building new research frameworks and quant libraries, prototyping new data feeds, development of new portfolio construction techniques or building risk analysis tools. The Team Quant Developers at AHL are all part of our broader technology team, members of a group of over sixty individuals representing eighteen nationalities. We have varied backgrounds including Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Engineering - even Classics - but what unifies us is a passion for technology and writing high-quality code. Our developers are organised into small cross-functional teams, with our engineering roles broadly of two kinds: Quant Platform Developers" otherwise known as our Core Techs", and Quant Developers" which we often refer to as Sector Techs". We use the term Sector Tech" because some of our teams are aligned with a particular asset class or market sector. People often rotate teams in order to learn more about our system, as well as find the position that best matches their interests. Our Technology Our systems are almost all running on Linux and most of our code is in Python, with the full scientific stack: numpy, scipy, pandas, scikit-learn to name a few of the libraries we use extensively. We implement the systems that require the highest data throughput in Java. For storage, we rely heavily on MongoDB and Oracle. We use Airflow for workflow management, Kafka for data pipelines, Bitbucket for source control, Jenkins for continuous integration, Grafana + Prometheus for metrics collection, ELK for log shipping and monitoring, Docker for containerisation, OpenStack for our private cloud, Ansible for architecture automation, and HipChat for internal communication. But our technology list is never static: we constantly evaluate new tools and libraries. Working Here AHL has a small company, no-attitude feel. It is flat structured, open, transparent and collaborative, and you will have plenty of opportunity to grow and have enormous impact on what we do. We are actively engaged with the broader technology community. We host and sponsor London's PyData and Machine Learning Meetups We open-source some of our technology. See We regularly talk at leading industry conferences, and tweet about relevant technology and how we're using it. We're fortunate enough to have a fantastic open-plan office overlooking the River Thames, and continually strive to make our environment a great place in which to work. We believe that agile working allows us to deliver the best business outcomes for our clients and investors as well as having a positive impact on life / work balance and the wellbeing of our staff. We are simultaneously committed to "levelling the playing field" and believe that agile working promotes inclusivity across teams, regions and business units. We organise regular social events, everything from photography through climbing, karting, wine tasting and monthly team lunches We have annual away days and off-sites for the whole team As well as PC's and Macs, in our office you'll also find numerous pieces of cool tech such as light cubes and 3D printers, guitars, ping-pong and table-football, and a piano We offer competitive compensation, a generous holiday allowance, various health and other flexible benefits. We are also committed to continuous learning and development via coaching, mentoring, regular conference attendance and sponsoring academic and professional qualifications.

Salary: up to £85k base The Role As an Execution Developer at one of the world's largest hedge funds, you'll be building the tools, platforms and algorithms that enable the investment engines to drive forward their centralised global trading operation. Your challenges will be varied and might involve building new execution algorithms, the platforms on which they run, simulation environments, intelligent order routing, connectivity to execution venues and brokers, tools for high touch and quant traders, monitoring capability, post-trade performance analysis and software to optimise all aspects of the trading lifecycle. As they are continually expanding the markets, asset classes and regions in which they trade, as well as the styles in which they trade them, this team is responsible for designing imaginative and flexible software and tools to keep pace with this change. Looking to hire talented software engineers across the experience spectrum; previous experience with almost any asset class will be an advantage. The Team The team is currently undergoing significant investment in order to rationalise the trading capability across their investment engines. The engineering team works exceptionally closely with both the Trading Desk and the Execution Research team in order to design, build and maintain a world-class trading capability. There are trading floors in London, Hong Kong, Boston and New York responsible for trading in excess of 5 trillion dollars annually. The Technology Systems here are almost all running on Linux and most of the code is in Java, with some Python and Typescript. They use Kafka as the backbone of the platform, Aeron, Git for source control, Jenkins for continuous integration, Grafana + Prometheus for metrics collection, Docker for containerisation, Ansible for architecture automation, and Slack for internal communication. That said, the technology list is never static: they are constantly evaluating new tools and libraries. Working Here This fund has a small company, no-attitude feel. It is flat structured, open, transparent and collaborative, and you will have plenty of opportunity to have enormous impact on the firm. They are actively engaged with the broader technology community. They host and sponsor London's PyData & Machine Learning Meetups and open-source some of their technology, including parts of the Data Platform They regularly talk at leading industry conferences, and tweet about relevant technology and how they're using it. They have a fantastic open-plan office overlooking the River Thames, and continually strive to make the environment a great place in which to work. They offer flexible working, competitive compensation, a generous holiday allowance, health and other benefits. They're also committed to continuous learning and development via coaching, mentoring, conference attendance and sponsoring academic and professional qualifications. Technology and Business Skills You'll be an expert software developer and ideally have an understanding of the financial markets, with relevant electronic trading experience in at least one of the asset classes that we trade. You'll be a member of a highly focussed team with an exceptionally broad responsibility, so great communication skills and an ability to work as part of a team are a must. You'll possess a significant proportion of the following skill-set: Required Expert proficiency in Java. Database / SQL skills.
