Senior C++ Engineer - High-Performance Trading Systems

We're working with a global financial brokerage building mission-critical trading and analytics platforms used across international financial markets.

This is a hands-on engineering role for a senior C++ developer who enjoys working close to the metal - diagnosing crashes, optimising performance, and improving the resilience of real-time systems.

What you'll be doing:

• Designing and building low-latency C++ applications

• Investigating and resolving production crashes

• Performing deep debugging (call stacks, memory issues, threading)

• Optimising multi-threaded, real-time systems

• Collaborating with engineers, QA, DevOps, and business users

• Mentoring junior developers and raising engineering standards

What we're looking for:

• Strong commercial experience in modern C++ (11/14/17)

• Background in performance-critical systems

• Hands-on experience with debugging and crash analysis

• Solid understanding of concurrency, memory management, and optimisation

• Comfortable working in fast-paced, production-focused environments

Hybrid working, long-term platform ownership, and genuinely complex engineering challenges.
