Amsterdam Currently hiring
Software Engineer, Python
Global market maker, headquartered in Amsterdam
Python-focused engineering role contributing directly to trading systems used globally across the firm's offices.
What does a Python-focused software engineering role at a market maker actually involve?
Building and improving systems that directly support live trading, with code, models, and decisions made by engineers in this role having a direct, measurable influence on trading outcomes rather than sitting several steps removed from the actual business.
Is Python enough, or do I need C++ or another systems language too?
Python is the primary requirement for this specific track, though comfort with underlying computer architecture and systems concepts is expected, given how closely the role sits to live trading infrastructure.
How does working from the Amsterdam headquarters differ from a regional office for this kind of role?
Engineers based at headquarters work in closer proximity to the firm's central trading, research, and infrastructure functions, with more direct visibility into how decisions made globally get implemented.
