Overview
LMAX is looking for a Python developer to join our middle-office team. This team works closely with the infrastructure, research and treasury teams. In this position you can expect to take a significant role in the development of our trade reconciliation, back-testing framework and trading monitoring. You will be working with the team to design and implement our trading system with a predominant focus on data engineering. We are looking for developers who are confident in their ability to develop software, both with others and on their own.
A finance or trading background is not required.
Our infrastructure team works in C++ and our research team works in Python for analysis and automation. This role sits within the middle-office team, working primarily in Python. You'll be collaborating with both teams- supporting research with data analysis and working alongside the infrastructure team when needed. You'll be building Python tools and services that work with large volumes of financial data, used by teams across the business for analysis and reporting. This brings real performance challenges around throughput. You can expect to focus more on software performance than at other organisations, while still striving for clean, maintainable code.
Testing
We rely heavily on validating our system using our extensive test suites. We test at all levels of our system from unit testing to full end-to-end tests in which the entire system is launched and tested in a simulated environment. All tests are run every 15 minutes on our CI to give us a fast and reliable feedback cycle. There is no waiting for overnight test suites here. As a developer at LMAX you will be expected to help maintain our test framework so that we can continue to develop high quality code at speed.
