Senior Software Engineer – Trading Systems (Remote, €110,000)

A small but high-performing trading firm is growing fast after a profitable first year. Founded by experienced traders, engineers, and compliance professionals, they’re expanding their engineering team to help turn new trading ideas into production-ready systems.

They have more ideas than they can build — so they’re looking for an experienced Software Engineer who wants to make a real impact.

If you want to:

• Work directly with traders and other engineers to bring trading ideas to life
• Solve hard technical problems across data, infrastructure, and application layers
• See the results of your work in days, not months
• Contribute to design decisions, not just code what’s given
• Work remotely from anywhere in Germany
• Share fairly in the success of the trading results

…then this might be the one for you.

The role:

You’ll build and improve the trading system end-to-end — from market data and order entry through to strategy logic, databases, and front-end tools.

That means everything from data processing and performance optimisation to testing, monitoring, and deployment. You’ll work closely with traders to understand how each model is meant to function, then design and deliver the right technical solution.

What we’re looking for:

• Several years’ experience as a Software Engineer — ideally with some exposure to trading or finance
• Strong skills in C# or C++ (Python also a plus)
• Comfortable with Linux services, Docker, and basic networking setup
• Experience managing VMs (Linux or Windows)
• Based in Germany — remote work fully supported

If you like the idea of a lean, fast-moving team where your ideas get built and shipped — not stuck in meetings — this could be a great match.
