WHAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT A TECHNOLOGY CAREER AT IMC?
At IMC, technology is not a department; it's at the heart of everything we do. Since the late 1980s, we've pioneered the use of technology to advance the development of market making and low-latency trading. Today, our technologists work alongside traders in multidisciplinary teams to push the limits of possibility, and then look beyond. In our fast-paced environment, short feedback loops mean projects worked on in the morning can enter production the next day.
WHAT YOU'LL DO AS A HARDWARE ENGINEER
At IMC, technology is not a department; it's at the heart of everything we do. Developed in house, our innovative trading systems make millions of trading decisions daily, and we win by making better and faster decisions than our competition.
We use FPGAs to make faster trading decisions and react earlier to market events. Together with our software teams we build extremely low-latency systems that ensure we always get the trades we want. Our FPGAs are responsible for the network communication with the exchanges, as well as applying our trading strategies in the decision making process. Being in the critical loop, we need to optimize for speed while keeping throughput in mind.
As a Hardware Engineer, you'll work alongside other software, hardware and network engineers as well as traders and researchers to implement systems to be used in the frontline of our business. Apart from gathering the requirements and developing the required hardware logic, you'll be responsible for testing, API implementation and supporting software integration of your new features. Advanced automated testing and daily deployments will give you immediate feedback and allow you to achieve agile and incremental benefits.
Within a complex landscape of varying systems and technologies, you'll be constantly challenged to consider trade-offs between latency, throughput, simplicity, scalability and maintainability. In order to balance those points you'll need to think out of the box, and find creative ideas to stay both fast and smart.
