Senior Quantitative Developer / Research & Data Engineer Research & Data Engineer UNITED KINGDOM Senior Quantitative Developer / Research & Data Engineer - LONDON - UNITED KINGDOM Primary Skills - Python, C++, quantitative, research, market data, simulation frameworks Secondary Skills - distributed systems, cloud computing, execution systems, performance optimization, data pipelines, Linux No. Positions - 3 Remote Status - No Remote Client Willing to Sponsor - Yes Degree - Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or Operation Research ONLY Relocation Paid - YesRecruit From UK only Salary Details: Annual Salary - £250,000 - £600,000 Other Compensation - Base + Bonus Job Description Quantitative Developer / Senior Research & Data Engineer - Systematic Trading (London) A leading systematic investment firm, managing over $6 billion in assets, is spinning out from the quantitative division of a globally recognized hedge fund to become an independent investment firm. This is a rare opportunity to join during a major growth phase and help build the firm's long-term technology platform.The company combines the stability of an established investment business with the engineering culture of a high-performing technology organization. Engineers work in small, highly autonomous teams with significant ownership over critical systems. Senior hires are expected to lead major technical initiatives and work directly with executive leadership, including the CTO. What the work covers depending on placement: Designing and operating systems that deliver real-time market data to trading infrastructure, where speed and reliability are fundamental requirements Building integrated environments where quantitative researchers develop, test, and deploy predictive models - from feature engineering through execution Architecting cloud-based simulation and experimentation platforms that support large-scale quantitative research without becoming a bottleneck Standing up toolchains for new asset classes or trading strategies - the kind of foundational work where you're defining what needs to exist Working across boundary of research and production - ensuring that what quants build in notebooks can actually run reliably at scale The technology is primarily Python, with C++ where performance demands it. The infrastructure runs across both on-premises systems and cloud. ML is used as one tool among many - this is a systematic shop, not an AI-first fund. The emphasis is on engineering quality, quantitative judgment, and the ability to build durable systems. Qualifications You have real buy-side experience - or experience in an environment with similar standards. You've worked at a systematic fund, a quant trading firm, or you've transitioned from a top tech company and proven yourself in a trading environment. People from firms like the ones you'd expect are what they're looking for. You are a strong Python Engineer with good C++. You're not a "script writer" - you build frameworks, infrastructure, and systems. You have quantitative judgment. You don't need to be a PhD researcher, but you understand how data, models, and trading systems interact. You can work productively with quants and understand what they need from the engineering side. You are senior enough to take ownership. The CTO wants people he can hand large initiatives to and trust the output. Think 6 to 15+ years of relevant experience, with meaningful time in high-standards environments. Your communication skills are excellent - both written and verbal. The bar for this is genuinely high. If you can't articulate your thinking clearly, this isn't the right place for you regardless of your technical strength. You've achieved things. Years of experience is not the only metric - for example 5 years out of Oxford and already operating at a level most people reach at 12, that is the level we are seeking. MUST have a Bachelor's degree or higher in a quantitative or technical field from a top university. Why is This a Great Opportunity: The firm already has the capital, the leadership, the talent, and the track record. What makes this moment special is that the spin-out has not completed yet. The people joining now are building the independent platform from the inside. Once the separation is done and the story becomes obvious to everyone, the best seats will be taken and the leverage will be different.If the spinout reaches the scale they're targeting, every single person who was part of it will carry that on their resume for the rest of their career. That is not a hypothetical - this is already being discussed as potentially the largest spinout of its kind in the industry.The leadership team came from some of the most respected systematic firms in the world. The CEO sits in London - this is a true headquarters, not a satellite office. The CTO is someone that exceptional engineers want to work for - high standards, high trust, no bureaucracy. The culture is technical, fast-moving, and genuinely kind. People here describe it as the happiest they've been professionally.Base salary in London ranges from £120k - £160k+, but the real number is total comp . Year 1 bonus is guaranteed , and for senior hires, total compensation ranges from £450k to well over £600k depending on experience and impact. The firm does not have rigid comp bands - if they see the value, they pay for it.The London office is growing rapidly, with the firm recently expanding into additional space. Four days in-office , Mondays remote. It's a genuinely great environment. Do not miss this once in a lifetime opportunity! IND123

We are recruiting founding Platform Engineers on behalf of a fast-growing enterprise level (global, 500+ staff) software business with a strong engineering culture and a genuine commitment to doing things the right way. They have recently formed a dedicated Platform Engineering Group - and this is your opportunity to join it at the ground floor, helping to define the patterns, pipelines, and tooling that will shape how their engineering teams build and ship software for years to come. Location: Remote (UK-based), with occasional visits to a Central London HQ for team days. Salary: £80,000 to £85,000 per annum, plus 10% annual bonus and an extensive benefits package. Working arrangement: fully remote. Contract type: permanent. What you'll be doing Designing and building internal tooling, templates, and scaffolding that make the right way the easy way for engineering teams across the business. Building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines that are robust, fast, and production-ready - reducing friction for every team that depends on them. Treating developer experience as a product - gathering feedback from engineers, identifying pain points, and iterating toward solutions that deliver measurable value. Owning test architecture as a deliberate design problem - defining and embedding standards for unit, integration, and contract testing across the platform. Collaborating closely with engineers, architects, and stakeholders to surface ideas, take on feedback, and shape the direction of the platform engineering function. What you need to bring Strong software engineering skills with real depth in at least one language, and a clear point of view on stacks, tooling, and trade-offs. Java, C#, Python, Typescript, Go - all valid! Solid hands-on experience designing and building CI/CD pipelines, and running containerised workloads in production. Experience with Infrastructure as Code - CloudFormation/CDK, Terraform, or Pulumi (Any of / all of!) - and the confidence to build pipelines that hold up under real production load. A track record of building tooling or automation that other engineers rely on day-to-day, and strong communication skills to match. Desirable: AWS experience , GitHub Actions, hands-on continuous release, progressive delivery, or production observability. Why you'll love this job This is a pattern-setting role in a newly formed group - you'll have genuine influence over how the platform is built, not just be handed a backlog to work through. The business takes learning seriously - dedicated personal development time each week, access to an online training platform, annual conference attendance, and regular Innovation Time to explore your own ideas. An excellent benefits package that includes health insurance, income protection, life assurance, pension contribution, subsidised gym membership, and more.
