About The Position

Duties: Architect and develop a hyper-optimized, low-latency, and highly scalable React-based web trading platform that interacts with real-time, high-frequency data streams for market data and trade execution. Implement and fine-tune an Advanced Message Processing System (AMPS) based event-driven architecture based event-driven architecture with microservice integration, ensuring real-time market updates, risk management, and high-frequency order routing with sub-millisecond latency. Lead the transition of a highly complex C++ desktop application to a modern TypeScript/React stack, ensuring zero downtime, full backward compatibility, and performance optimization for millions of transactions per second. Design and implement efficient data serialization solutions using Protocol Buffers to ensure seamless interoperability between distributed systems. Optimize data exchange processes to enhance performance and scalability across various platforms and services. Architect and enforce idAnywhere based zero- trust identity and access management (IAM) for the entire trading ecosystem. Engineer a zero-latency integration between real-time market data and order management systems, leveraging high-performance streaming APIs for ultra-fast execution and tick-by-tick analytics.
