  • Develop software on Linux environments and deploy in AWS.
  • Contribute positively to team and firm culture by embracing our core values.

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:

  • A bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science or a related field.
  • At least three years professional experience using Python.
  • Fundamental knowledge of core computer science concepts, including algorithms, data structures, performance characteristics.

HIGHLY DESIRABLE:

  • Experience with Linux and command-line environment.
  • Experience with cloud environments and infrastructure as code tools.
  • Familiarity with NumPy and dataframe libraries.
  • Experience in other programming languages such as TypeScript, Rust, or C.
  • Knowledge of quantitative finance and/or financial data.

WHAT WE PROVIDE:

  • A flexible hybrid work model. We value collaboration and provide ample opportunities to foster a sense of community within your team and the company, while still understanding the need for flexibility.
  • Generous comprehensive insurance plans.
  • Education assistance and tuition reimbursement program.
  • Company sponsored social and recreational activities.
  • Flexible time off.
  • Six-week sabbatical after 7 years of continuous employment.
  • Company sponsored daily in-office meals.
  • Gym membership stipend.

Salary Range: $120,000 - $180,000 + eligible for a discretionary bonus. Base pay will be determined on an individual basis considering such factors as location, qualifications, skills, and experience. The base pay range is subject to change and may be modified in the future.
