At Hudson River Trading (HRT), C++ is at the center of our live trading systems and research infrastructure. Our C++ engineers build the highly performant, fault-tolerant systems that power trading across global markets. HRT’s distributed system is on the Pareto frontier of latency and throughput, giving you limitless opportunity to leverage your deep knowledge of C++, OS internals, CPU architecture, and networking hardware and protocols. You’ll work side-by-side with researchers, traders, and hardware specialists, implementing solutions where every microsecond matters. Our bottom-up approach to projects and our highly collaborative environment empower talented engineers to make significant contributions and see their impact daily. At HRT, you'll be challenged to solve complex problems in a fast-paced, highly competitive industry, surrounded by some of the brightest minds in the field. C++ Engineers at HRT work on a wide variety of projects. Examples include: • Develop and optimize infrastructure for market data, order entry and execution logic, spanning tens of asset classes including options, equities, futures, crypto, and fixed income. • Design fault-tolerant, low-latency systems for live trading, including encoding/prioritization of data over WAN links and recovery from hardware failures. • Profile and improve performance-critical code for both throughput and latency in production environments. • Build and maintain infrastructure that drives products including client-facing wholesale and SDP platforms, distributed network filesystems, and scalable research workflows. • Write software that interfaces with specialized hardware such as FPGAs and ASICs used in trading systems.
