We are seeking an extremely talented software developer to join our team as we continue the development of our successfully deployed financial trading system. This is an unusual opportunity to become a key contributor to an exciting project on the cutting edge of both the high-tech and finance industries. The successful applicant will join our team of highly qualified programmers and scientists as we extend the functionality and performance of our sophisticated trading system that manages significant amounts of the firm's capital. He or she will be expected to play a leading role in the ongoing design, implementation, and deployment of this system.

Although based within a financially secure organization, the group has much of the characteristics of a high-tech startup: a hardworking cooperative environment, no rigid boundaries, and excellent rewards for superior performance. We are searching for intelligence, enthusiasm, expertise, versatility, and maturity, rather than a predetermined number of years of experience. The position will be based in our Silicon Valley office located at Santa Clara, CA or our company headquarters in Jersey City, NJ.

Requirements
· BS, MS or Ph.D. in Computer Science or closely related field, with a high GPA.
· Demonstrated experience working on the design, implementation, and deployment of large, complex software projects.
· High level of expertise in systems programming on UNIX and Windows.
· High level of expertise in a variety of programming languages, including C/C++, Java, and scripting languages.
· Familiarity with database systems and languages, in particular Oracle and SQL.
· Familiarity with software development tools, such as version control, project management, and bug tracking systems.
· Ability to understand sophisticated mathematical and financial concepts.
· Ability to take responsibility and work independently in a high-pressure, time-critical environment.
· Ability to work cooperatively with programmers, traders, and management.
· High attention to detail.
