The Role
We’re looking for Software Engineers to join our Joule Direct team, to help us build and improve our high-throughput, low-latency energy trading platform. You’ll be working with some amazing technologists to solve complex problems.
For us, teamwork is everything. We listen to each other, we adapt, we evolve and we strive to innovate. We are making significant investments in our business and we will invest in you.
Some of the work on any given day includes:
* Improve our connection handling code to connect to an Exchange (eg. CME, ICE, EEX, etc)
* Implement a new Connector for an Exchange we don’t yet support
* Improve distributed tracing in some of the code hot paths
* Implement a new Automated Trading feature
* Benchmarking code to reduce latency
* Do some design/planning with a colleague and raise an RFC
* Our services are written with C# on .NET 8
* We use a fair bit of SQL Server, Kafka and RabbitMQ
* Azure DevOps. We are big fans of Azure Pipelines! Some of our services are migrating away from TeamCity and Octopus Deploy
* Our observability stack is Splunk, Grafana and Prometheus
You
As a software engineer, you will be:
* Part of a cross-functional team working with Product Managers, Testers and DevOps engineers
* Writing well-tested and maintainable code
* Getting involved in all stages of development including planning, implementation and delivery
* Pairing with other engineers to share and expand your knowledge
* Contributing to technical discussions
Skills & Experience
* Strong knowledge of C# or any popular programming language
* Can write efficient, concurrent code
* Knowledge of how distributed systems work
* Experience with Git, TeamCity and Octopus will be valued but is not required
* Knowledge or experience with financial markets will be valued but is not required
If you are not an expert in these specific technologies but are familiar with an equivalent then we’re happy to train you.
The Team
* Development driven by employees
* Interesting and complex problems to solve
* Work with amazing technologists
* Learn about other parts of the business through our commitment to collaboration
* Opportunities to learn through regular tech talks, training and Hackathons
* Join a company with strong market presence
