24/08/2026 Up to £100,000 depending on experience (1-4 years) London , , United States Permanent Software Engineering Financial Engineer / Software Engineer

• Trading London / UK
• Fully Remote 0-4 years' experience | Financial Markets | AI | Trading We are working with a fast-growing investment management firm operating within the digital asset markets, looking to hire a Financial Engineer into its trading and research technology team.

This is not a traditional software engineering role where you'll simply work through tickets, nor is it an ML research position. You'll sit close to the trading function , using modern engineering and AI tooling to build alpha and signal research systems , understand the strategies your technology supports, and develop an increasingly deep understanding of how those strategies are executed in live markets. This reflects the firm's own description of the role as sitting close to trading and building alpha/signal research systems rather than pure ML research. What you'll be doing Building and improving alpha and signal research systems Developing software and tooling used directly within the investment and trading process Working closely with traders and researchers to understand the strategies you're supporting Using AI tooling extensively to accelerate engineering and research Working with financial and market data to build robust, production-quality systems Developing an understanding of trade execution and market structure Solving problems where correctness, robustness and efficiency are critical Taking significant ownership in a small, fast-moving environment What we're looking for 0-4 years' commercial experience in software engineering, financial engineering, quantitative development or a closely related field Strong fundamental software engineering ability A genuine understanding of financial markets, trading and investment concepts Strong interest in quantitative/systematic trading Comfortable operating in fast-moving and high-pressure markets Strong problem-solving and analytical ability Language agnostic — we're interested in engineering ability rather than one specific programming language Comfortable using modern AI development tools as part of your day-to-day engineering workflow Prior experience within a hedge fund, proprietary trading firm, investment manager, bank, crypto firm or fintech would be advantageous. Working arrangement This position is fully remote within the UK , and candidates must already have the right to work in the UK . The firm's public advert confirms both points. However, this is a markets-facing position. You must be comfortable with working outside standard UK office hours when required , particularly where trading activity, market events or collaboration across international time zones requires it. Why join? You'll be joining a small investment business where engineering sits extremely close to the actual investment process. Rather than building technology several layers removed from its users, you'll be able to see how your work affects research, trading decisions and ultimately investment performance. The role offers top-of-market compensation plus profit share .
