- Participate in on-call rotation for production support during trading hours.
- Work closely with the Portfolio Manager to translate research ideas into latency-aware production code.
- Support rapid iteration of strategies while maintaining engineering rigor and production safety.

- Hands-on experience working with futures exchanges and listed derivatives.
- Deep familiarity with low-latency system design, including concurrency, memory management, and network I/O.
- Strong understanding of futures trading mechanics (expiries, rolls, margining, exchange rules).
- Experience working in Linux production environments.
- Experience with exchange-native market data and order entry protocols.
- Familiarity with kernel bypass, multicast market data, or performance-optimized networking.
- Python experience for research tooling or offline analysis.
