Maven is a proprietary trading organisation formed in 2011. We employ the most talented traders, developers and engineers in the market, executing a diverse range of strategies across global equities and derivatives. We are the most active participant in many of the products we trade, contributing significant liquidity to markets around the world. Maven has a culture that is relaxed and informal but highly rewarding of strong performance; there's no dress code, plenty of free food and regular social events. We have offices in London, Hong Kong and New York and will be opening a new Chicago office in early 2020 as part of our plans to expand our coverage of derivatives markets.

Our Options Market Making Group provides liquidity on options contracts on all the major European, American and Asian derivatives exchanges, across a range of underlying asset classes. Our approach to trading is scientific and technology led: tight integration between trading and technology is core to our success.

Our small teams of C#, C++ and Python developers are responsible for our in-house applications, ranging from the world's lowest latency execution systems, through web-based user interfaces, to tools to interrogate multi-terabyte data sets.

Maven is looking for outstanding C# software developers with the engineering, analytical and quant skills to help drive our continuing success to the next level. Sitting on our trading floor, you will work alongside the best traders and developers to help us optimise our pricing libraries, to improve our trading tools, to extend our systematic trading strategies and to build cutting edge web-based user interfaces.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Full lifecycle development of software for market making.
  • Collaborate with the IT Operations Team to ensure software can be supported and runs smoothly in production. Assist them with first-line support when necessary.
  • Participate in software engineering processes such as peer review, sprint planning and daily stand-up meetings.
  • Work alongside support functions and developers in other teams, such as Finance, Compliance and Securities Operations.

We pride ourselves on being able to rapidly deliver well-engineered software into production. You will be able to see the impact of your work immediately and will be in a unique position to have a direct impact on trading revenue. We make extensive use of automated testing and peer code review to ensure quality and maintainability while keeping time-to-market short.

We endeavour to keep our software stack up-to-date, weeding out legacy technologies to ensure our business stays at the forefront of its field. Our plans for 2019 include completing the move to .NET Core, containerization and utilizing some of the great JavaScript libraries that have recently been released.

CANDIDATE SPECIFICATIONS

All candidates must have:

  • Excellent C# (or C++ or Java, providing it's combined with a strong knowledge of our business area).
  • Experience with at least one database (we use various relational, no-sql and time-series databases as appropriate).
  • Good numerical skills.
  • The ability to solve new and unfamiliar problems quickly and creatively.
  • An efficient and diligent approach with a strong attention to detail.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • An Interest in trading and finance.

An ideal candidate would also have:

  • Knowledge of financial markets & securities (particularly futures and options).
  • Experience in the other programming languages we use: C++, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript.
  • Familiarity with HTML, CSS and web development libraries such as React, Vue, ASP.NET Core, Knockout, Bootstrap, OpenRasta and Nancy.
  • Familiarity with .NET Core, Linux, Docker / Containerization and Cloud technologies.
  • Excel add-in design and development.
