Job description

Quant Developer : Elite Quant Fund : Python/C++ : £150-200k base plus huge bonus

We are partnering with one of London’s most selective and highest-performing quantitative investment funds to appoint a Quant Developer to their core systematic trading group. This is a confidential mandate for a team renowned for world‑class engineering standards, scientific rigour, and a culture built around high impact and low ego.

The successful candidate will work at the intersection of quantitative research, data engineering, and high‑performance software development — with code that moves rapidly from prototype to production and directly influences trading performance.

The Role

As a Quant Developer, you will:

  • Collaborate closely with quant researchers to productionise models and design scalable research/tooling infrastructure
  • Develop high‑performance, robust code across Python and C++
  • Build and maintain data pipelines, research platforms, and components of the live trading stack
  • Optimise system performance, reliability, and throughput across large‑scale datasets
  • Contribute to architectural decisions across the full research‑to‑execution workflow

What We’re Looking For

  • Exceptional programming skills in Python and/or C++, with a focus on writing clean, performant production code
  • Strong understanding of core CS fundamentals (algorithms, distributed systems, profiling, testing)
  • Experience in a systematic trading environment or quantitative data domain is highly advantageous, though not essential
  • A problem‑solver with the ability to work collaboratively in a highly technical, research‑driven environment
  • Humility, curiosity, and a desire to build systems that have real, measurable impact
  • Computer Science or STEM degree from a good university

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Opportunity to join a top‑performing fund with a deeply technical culture
  • Work directly with elite researchers and developers on complex, meaningful problems
  • Highly competitive compensation with significant performance‑based upside
  • Exposure to world‑class infrastructure, datasets, and compute environments
  • A role where strong engineering truly drives investment performance
