IMC’s Mumbai based C++ Execution development teams work on software that sits directly in the latency-critical loop of our technology stack and touches every part of our organization. From ensuring our connectivity to the market and handling massive amounts of data, to implementing complex trading algorithms and integrating advanced hardware solutions.

Your Core Responsibilities: 

As a software engineer, you’ll work in multidisciplinary teams alongside other engineers as well as traders, researchers, and quants to deliver challenging projects, while taking ownership for end-to-end product development – from requirements gathering to production. You’ll write reliable, high-performance software while balancing time to production with quality and testability. Advanced automated testing and daily deployments will allow you to achieve agile and incremental benefits.

Within a complex landscape of varying systems and technologies, you’ll be constantly challenged to consider trade-offs between latency, throughput, simplicity, scalability and maintainability.

These are just some of the technologies our C++ software engineers are currently working with: C++ 20, Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, Apache Kafka, Apache Spark, Impala, Hadoop, Python and FPGAs.

Your Skills and Experience: 

• Strong academic background in Computer Science (B. Tech/B.E), with 4-8 years of work experience in C++

• Natural problem-solvers, who enjoy tackling fresh challenges each day

• Team players: to succeed, SWEs must be able to build strong relationships with those around them

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; fluency in English
