Senior Software Engineer - Research Technology
DRW is a diversified trading firm with over 3 decades of experience bringing sophisticated technology and exceptional people together to operate in markets around the world. We value autonomy and the ability to quickly pivot to capture opportunities, so we operate using our own capital and trading at our own risk.
Headquartered in Chicago with offices throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, we trade a variety of asset classes including Fixed Income, ETFs, Equities, FX, Commodities and Energy across all major global markets. We have also leveraged our expertise and technology to expand into three non-traditional strategies: real estate, venture capital and cryptoassets.
We operate with respect, curiosity and open minds. The people who thrive here share our belief that it’s not just what we do that matters–it's how we do it. DRW is a place of high expectations, integrity, innovation and a willingness to challenge consensus.
Build and operate the platform powering compute-intensive analysis of large event-stream datasets. The work resembles a game engine’s replay loop, a telecom packet pipeline, or a streaming analytics platform, applied to financial market data.
Our stack includes modern C++ for throughput-critical ingestion and simulation, Python with C++ bindings for research tooling, and distributed computing on HPC cluster
