Java Developer - Algo Trading | Front Office
Are you a skilled Java developer with a passion for financial markets and algorithmic trading? This is a rare opportunity to step into a front-office role where you'll work at the intersection of software development and quantitative trading. This is the idóneo role if you thrive in a high-energy environment and want to build cutting-edge trading systems.
The Role:
As part of this high-performing team, you'll be responsible for designing, developing, and optimising algorithmic trading strategies. This isn't just about writing quick scripts-it's about building robust, production-grade systems that execute trades with precision and efficiency.
You'll collaborate closely with traders and quants, developing low-latency trading algorithms that operate across multiple asset classes, including FX, Equities, and potentially Rates and Credit.



Given the front-office nature of this role, you'll be directly involved in shaping trading strategies, ensuring systems respond in real-time to market conditions.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Developing and optimising trading algorithms with a focus on speed, efficiency, and reliability.
- Building low-latency, high-throughput systems that can handle real-time market data and execution logic.
- Working alongside traders and quants to fine-tune strategies and ensure seamless integration of technology into the trading workflow.
- Enhancing and maintaining existing trading infrastructure, continuously improving performance and scalability.
- Navigating a fast-paced, high-pressure environment, where milliseconds can make a significant impact on profitability.

What We're Looking For:
- Candidates in the early stages of their career with Java development experience, ideally in a high-performance or real-time systems environment.
- A strong interest
