VS- Low-Latency eFX Trading Platform Developer

We are seeking an experienced Low-Latency eFX Trading Platform Developer to design, build, and optimize the core components of our real-time electronic trading platform. You will be responsible for developing latency-sensitive processes that handle pricing, execution, hedging, and distribution within the FX trading environment.

• Design and build latency-sensitive electronic trading processes, from price ingestion through execution and post-trade handoff.
• Develop and optimize real-time trading components including execution flows, pricing pipelines, hedging logic, and distribution mechanisms.
• Engineer systems where microseconds matter, focusing on throughput, determinism, and system behavior under load.
• Work directly with traders and eTrading stakeholders to translate trading strategies and execution logic into robust, automated processes.
• Integrate market data, pricing, execution, and risk controls into cohesive, low-latency workflows.
• Profile, tune, and refactor code to reduce latency across JVM, threading, memory allocation, and messaging layers.
• Collaborate with quants and risk teams to embed real-time checks and controls into execution paths.
• Contribute to architectural decisions specific to low-latency system design, including threading models, event handling, and data flow.
• Design and build core eFX platform components that support real-time pricing, execution, and liquidity distribution.
• Develop latency-sensitive trading processes operating directly in the FX execution path.
• Implement and optimize pricing engines, execution logic, hedging workflows, and distribution services within a real-time FX environment.
• Embed real-time risk checks, throttling, and controls into core execution flows.
• Profile, tune, and optimize C#/.NET applications for low latency and high volume FX trading.

• 6–8+ years of hands‑on Java development in electronic trading environments.
• 6–8+ years of hands‑on C#/.NET development in electronic trading environments.
• Direct experience building eTrading or low‑latency trading systems (not just consuming them).
• Direct experience building core eFX trading platforms, not just consuming them.
• Proven background in FX eTrading, EFX, Commodities eTrading, or comparable real‑time trading domains.
• Strong background in FX eTrading, including pricing, execution, and liquidity workflows.
• Strong understanding of how trading processes behave under latency constraints, including pricing, execution, and risk interactions.
• Deep experience with multi‑threading, concurrency models, lock‑free or low‑contention design, and event‑driven architectures.
• Strong expertise in multi‑threading, async/await, concurrency models, and event‑driven architectures in C#.
• Experience working close to the trading desk on execution logic and trading workflows, not purely downstream systems.
• Experience working on core trading engines, pricing platforms, execution services, or distribution layers.
• Deep understanding of real‑time FX trading workflows and how they behave under latency constraints.
• Experience working close to the FX trading desk or eFX product teams.

• Experience with FIX engines, market data handlers, or proprietary execution protocols.
• JVM performance tuning for low latency (GC behavior, memory management, CPU affinity).
• Exposure to high‑throughput messaging or in‑memory data distribution used in trading environments.
• Prior work on systems where latency and determinism were explicit non‑functional requirements.
• Experience with FX pricing models, streaming prices, and liquidity aggregation.
• Hands‑on work with FIX, proprietary FX protocols, or low‑latency messaging.
• Experience tuning .NET runtime performance for low latency and high throughput.
• Prior involvement in building in‑house trading platforms rather than vendor customization.
• Experience in FX venues, single‑dealer platforms, or bank‑built eFX systems.
