Senior Low Latency Rust Engineer

Posted 2 weeks ago by McGregor Boyall

What you’ll work on

  • Low-latency Rust and Java frameworks
  • Event-sourced systems operating in the 10–100 microsecond range
  • Market-data replay, backtesting and simulation tooling
  • High-performance market-data processing
  • Linux, kernel and systems-level performance optimisation
  • TCP/IP networking and kernel-bypass technologies
  • Performance profiling, benchmarking and latency reduction
  • Frameworks and tooling used across 100+ technology teams

What we’re looking for

You’ll ideally come from a background in algorithmic trading, electronic trading, market data or another genuinely latency-sensitive environment. Financial Services background is not crucial.

Relevant experience could include:

  • Rust, modern Java or C++
  • Low-latency / high-throughput systems
  • Algorithmic or electronic trading
  • Market-data technologies
  • Linux internals and kernel behaviour
  • TCP/IP networking
  • Solarflare / OpenOnload or similar kernel-bypass technologies
  • KDB or other time-series databases
  • Performance tuning and optimisation

Why consider it?

The standout here is the combination of:

Rust + microsecond-level performance engineering + large-scale production electronic trading.

You’ll remain deeply hands-on while working on engineering problems that sit underneath multiple trading platforms, rather than maintaining a single application.
