Job Description

Golang/Rust/Postgres Developer for Algorithmic Trading Company (Zurich)

  • This is not a typical company. You will be working with one other developer who will also be managing you and reviewing your code at the moment. That is me.
  • I am based in Switzerland though I am an American.
  • I want to reduce tasks to simple, well defined programs (where possible which is most places)
  • There are many aspects of an automated trading system that need to recur (e.g. ingestion of historical market data). If these "aspects" are broken down into many small parts, if one has a problem the others will still be running so most of the other programs can continue. If there are say 3 large programs and one fails, then the whole system must stop.
  • I am a developer myself so understand how to convey engineering requirements.
  • I am flexible about software language, to an extent. I am learning Rust so if a small program can be written in Rust I am open to it. I also want to learn other programming languages over time. So if you are into Clojure or Haskell it could be interesting to wade into those waters over time
  • Strong analytical and problem skills are a huge plus
  • Massive bonus points if you know Python/Matplotlib – data analysis stuff

Here's the standard jobbledygook stuff: Job Description: This algorithmic trading company seeking a skilled Golang Developer to join our company. The ideal candidate will have a strong knowledge of Golang, Postgresql, and working with Linux, as well as a strong ability to work independently, remotely. Great if you like Rust and want to code in it too

Responsibilities: 1. Develop, maintain, and optimize scalable and secure backend services using Golang for our algorithmic trading platform 2. Write numerous microservices that repeatedly update various aspects of our trading system 3. Troubleshoot and debug production issues as they arise

Requirements: 1. Proficiency in Golang, with a strong emphasis on writing clean, efficient, and maintainable code 2. Experience working with Postgresql, including database design, performance tuning, and optimization in a trading context 3. Familiarity with Linux and working in a command-line environment 4. Strong problem-solving and communication skills 5.

Location and Compensation: This is a full-time mostly in-person position (being in an office is required most days of the week) based in Zürich. The salary for this position ranges from 80,000-110,000CHF per year, depending on experience and qualifications.

The language is English. You must be fluent or near fluent in English. If you meet these requirements and are interested in this position, please submit your application along with your CV and cover letter. We are excited to hear from you and discuss how your skills can contribute to our development team.
