We are supporting a market leading provider of trading and liquidity services in their search for a Low Latency Linux engineer to optimise the internal and external trading infrastructure suite. The successful candidate will be enthused by the ongoing technical challenge posed by the evolution of the markets, client requirements and hardware. You will work with software engineers, quants and platform/infrastructure engineers on multiple projects at kernel-level to refine the RHEL platform.

This is not a banking role, so the potential for total compensation is a step up from that and reflects the fact that this role is responsible for pushing systems to their limits, not supporting them. Candidates should have experience of a majority of the following:

• Optimising CPU scheduling/CPU architecture knowledge
• Implementation/deployment of Solarflare, Infiniband, Exablaze, DPDK
• Precision timing, performance counters
• Strong RHEL engineering

This role is based in a City office 5 days per week
