Description : What We Expect :
- 3- 4 years of hands-on experience in C++ development, preferably in performance-critical or real-time systems.
- Strong command over modern C++ (C++14 / 17 / 20), multithreading, concurrency, and STL.
- Solid experience working with Qt to build high-performance, real-time trading UIs.
- Exposure to order execution engines, market data handling, or real-time risk systems is highly desirable.
- Good understanding of networking protocols (TCP / IP, UDP, FIX) and IPC mechanisms (shared memory, message queues, etc.).
- Practical experience with performance tuning, profiling tools (perf, Valgrind, gprof), and debugging complex systems.
- Proficiency in memory management, lock-free programming, and CPU-level optimizations.
- Curious, problem-solving mindset with the eagerness to experiment and push boundaries.
