Senior C++ Developer (Market Data & Pricing Systems)

We are hiring a Senior C++ Developer for a well-established, US Nasdaq-listed company. This is an exciting opportunity to work remotely, joining a team building a distributed pricing system for publishing real-time market data. Primary tasks include processing dealer-contributed market levels, generating composite levels, and distributing them to various subsystems. The team also subscribes to external market data from Refinitiv and consumes it for internal distribution. This group makes use of several 3rd-party tools to distribute, store, and retrieve market data, including Redis, Snowflake, and OneTick Database. Additionally, the team acts as 2nd-level support for production and development systems.

Please note that the working hours must overlap with New York business hours. We strongly prefer a full 8-hour overlap (9:00 AM - 5:00 PM ET), but require a minimum of 6 hours of overlap during this window.
